MA. TO ME. should get here in plenty of time... a big thanks to dadvbal and his johnnies for hosting...
I liked the stroller and dadvbal double headers and will do the same here...fri. / sat. or sat. / sun. depends on postal delivery...
the 23 car printable brackets came with placements 1 to 23... cool as 1 and 2 won't meet till the later rounds...
it also sets up our racers yet to win with the chance to grab a win in the first round ...
...I used the finish placement from the "jersey shore showdown" to place the first heet's cars...
then I used the overall points totals, I added the 3 vs. 4 runoff ;
...
I flipped a coin, and used stroller's later heet's results to place the cars for the finals,
added the 3 vs. 4 runoff ;
hole shot lizzotte will be at the gridiron for at least 1 of the races, glad to have him... good stage 'em and start 'em guy...

This is great Smitty! This method of bracket placement/ranking seems to be most appropriate. I think I'll set my brackets using this method during my next hosting event.
Finals
For 3rd place
#3 Holeshot's Woodie vs. #9 Dadvball's Tin Louie
#3 Holeshot grabs the last podium spot with a 3/4 car win.
Two good old Maine boys.

This race was decided by 2/1000ths of a second.
And the winner is.........
#26 Sloppy Jalopy!!!!!!!!
Congrats Smitty! And a big congrats to Fast Fred and his Angry Bird for finishing 2nd, and to Holeshot and his Woodie for taking 3rd.
Gentlemen, we had a blast running these at the LJLRC meeting today and we thank you for letting us participate. People were ooohing and aaahing over these cars, having never seen anything like them or even knowing there was racing across the country like this. We very likely may be picking up three new racers who are very interested. They all customize and love to race and will be checking out the site.
Smitty, I will get these boxed up and try to get to the PO tomorrow. If not they will go on Tuesday.
Don't forget to check out the LJLRC Racing page on Facebook to see pics of the cars in the starting gate. Have a great night all!
