First Race on the braided oval

First official race on the oval since it was braided.
Good turn out, nine racers and lots of laughs, good way to end the work week.

We ran the 1/32 Sportsmans, they ran great on the oval, but a little too much speed for resin cars with no bumpers. It should rub out.... Sorry Norb!

That is one sad lookin' Falcon. Be sure you give us a picture when you fix it, Norb.

Uh-oh! Say, maybe those frame-mounted bumpers aren't just for looks after all. You guys play hard; that may have to be a standard feature.

Yes those things happen. No big deal. The Falcon will live again.
I'm not even sure who hit me but accidents happen. Shoe-Goo is your friend! :banana-dance:
