First up: Racer Sideways 5612BB. I swapped in a MT5 and PG tires. Set it up as best I could and it was time to drop the green.


Anthony got into his pace easily. This "kid" has been racing since he could crawl.

Pretty impressive run. Especially since he does not do it often and this was without warming up.

He was pushing this crate for all it was worth. Got a little slideways here and there but he held on.
Next up: His new Carrera Merc.

Now here is the greatest part: It is 100% BOX STOCK. He took it from the case, scuff cleaned the tires and rolled them over some tape and told me to start the race.

Not only stock, but he wanted to night race :) This was a sight as usual.

Not bad. Not bad at all. It's not easy going from a tuned Racer to a stock Carrera but he did it.
And what really surprised me? Not ONE de-slot. He got close a couple times but recovered. I know he grew up with these toys but figured he would at least hit the weeds a couple times, but not once :)
Oh, we were listening to the Beach Boys too. :music-guitarred:
Great fun tonight!
