Cool deal!
:banana-dance:
I may not be able to tune in - as I think we are on to run the P-BOP cars at Route 93 Raceway tomorrow night - but if not, I will definitely be on line to check it out! :D
What time are you figuring on kicking off the festivities?

Hope the run is going well! I am still waiting on a password email from Livestream - hopefully I will get one before the goodness is over. :)

OK... after Livestream finally sent a password - it looks like I missed it? Must have been a quick run if it took you guys less than an hour! :scared-eek:

Hopefully they made for an entertaining field of cars!
Look forward to seeing pics of the additional entrants and hearing how everyone's car made out both in the "concours" and "racing" portions. :D

Sorry you missed it todd. We ran 2 minutes in each lane and had 6 cars so it did go pretty fast.
I quick picture of all them together.

Good lookin' field! :D
Yeah - not sure what the delay was with Livestream - it took over a half hour to get the password for the account to allow me to log on (guess I should have done that the other day when you posted the link!) - :oops:

Look forward to hearing how the field did in the competitions!
:D

Thanks for kicking this proxy off - definitely looking forward to getting a chance to check the field out in person when they rotate to Ohio! :D

It is just the three of us for host tracks? Wow! Kind of surprised no one else wanted to "play"... there loss! :)
I am good with them coming here next - I actually have three tracks here locally I can run them on (two at Mark's Model World - 144' road course, 69' tri-oval and one at Route 93 Raceway - Combo-Oval) - so I'll be sure to give them a good work out. :D

Result you've all been waiting for

Racer1h ran 11 laps in white and 11 in red with a fast lap of 12.925
Tuscotodd 10 in white 11.5 in red. Lap 12.834
Shotgun 11.5 in white 10 in red. Lap 13.691
Mnfordguy 11 in white 10 in red. Lap12.827
Game over 11.5 in white 9 in red. 13.745 lap
Bubbster 10.5 white 9 in red. Lap 13.767

The same two racers raced every car in their lanes. One guy stayed in white the other stayed in red.
They also gave me their thoughts on each car. The two that raced didn't have a car in the run.

Steve h
Fast, punchy best handling. Pirhana motor. The only one of the bunch
Unique topless concours treatment

Mnfordguy
Pretty quick kinda light up front
Very smooth paint airplane like :)

Tuscotodd
Very quick got faster as it ran
Pretty red pant well done!

Shotgun
Slow at first handles very smoothly!
Very creative paint over the top!

Bibbster
Like the lights! Smooth runner but guide was getting caught up on the carrera track
Good looking car nice taping hand striped!

Gameover
Smooth not the fastest got better as it drove.
Nice unique paint.

I'll post pics tomorrow on my of at work. I took a lot of them!

Also will get the poll for best paint up too. Next stop todds!

Fyi I'll need your address brother!
