Spring Nationals!

72_Chevy_C10 Thursday, 4/23/2015

I have had this plan up my sleeve for a little while now...I'll have the Rookie cars and the Middleweights at my track on the weekend of May 9th, and I'll also have the Beaters and FatFenders there. Hmm, does that sound familiar?

That's right, with the success of the Winter Nationals, it's time for the Spring Nationals! A random draw, one-shot race. All the cars that I have in house on the weekend of the May 9th, racing to crown a Spring Nationals Champion! 

Will anyone catch DadVBall's Galaxy? Will one of the Rookies sneak in and take the crown? Will a Beater beat up the competition? Or will a Fat Fender top the field? We'll find out soon!

Good Luck to all!

Sure, why not? If you didn't get your cars ready for the Rookie Race or for the Middle Weight race, send them in for the big race! Send them to:

Okay Guys, here's the plan...I have the 28 cars from the Rookie/ Middleweight Race and the 28 cars and trucks from the Fat Fender/ Beater Truck race...and I am going to to take the top 4 cars from the Pony Wars Race and the top 4 from the Trans Am Race...and that makes for a 64-car field!

This will be a random-draw race, just for the bragging rights! I'll get the brackets set in a little while and keep you posted through the day. I will start posting match-up pics in the round of 16 and I will do video for the Semis and the Finals.

Good luck to all!

The Brackets are set...sorry that the A bracket pic is a little blurry...

There are letters after  each #...T = Beater Truck, F = Fat Fender, R = Rookie, MW = Middleweight, TA = Trans Am and PW = Pony Wars

I tried not to pair any of the same series together in the first round (I think two trucks are matched up though). 

And, of all the luck, my Larry's Towing Truck gets to race DadVBall's Galaxy in the first round!

I'll keep you posted when I can!
