Home Racing World

Getting ready for the big weekend. Every year we enjoy hosting a race event over this weekend. Racers from all over make the trip for weekend of food, racing and more food? :)

As we are getting the HRW Skunkworks prepared, thought I would share a few pics.



First I want to thank the great sponsors we have. These are the folks who give something back which means a lot.

Paul Gage, RMS Resins, & MT Racing all sending things in as well. Will update the toy list as it grows.


SlotCarPlace.com sent in some really neat surprises. And is that a RMS Firebird?


Our own Dixon John is a new model kit dealer and donated these.


The General always comes up with little things for the racers. What goodies could they fit in these I wonder?


Maybe some of these from SlotCarCorner. Wow, what a spread! Most importantly we have a re-supply of Dum Dums.


Bruce at Cincyslots has great taste. He always seems to pick some great models and this year is no exception. Bravo!


Chicagoland Toys & Hobbies sent this trio. What a great stack of toys.

Here is a quick tour for newcomers of our humble basement which is as clean as it gets!



The "Bench Racing Bench" Here is where guys set the slot boxes up and generally solve all the world's problems.


The Skunkworks. Hard to believe we get anything done.


"Pit Row". From quick adjustments to all out tire and wheel work. Oh, it doesn't hurt that the fridge and cookies are close by.


The Midmo all ready for action.



And last but not least The Show-Me Speedway :)

Action starts tomorrow afternoon :banana-rock:

REally wish I could make it , I need to get Razor john 's box delivered . cant come up sat , and my baby sitter has to work regular job tommorow, or id make a day run

I need to try and make the trip down myself some day!

I would like to meet you guys in person after posting with a lot of you for about 10 years now.

Some day hopefully I will be able to do a road trip and make it happen..

Looks like a great time coming together!

Enjoy!!!

Wayne (Bolton's Speed Shop) :D :D :D

Looks like a lot of fun to be had this weekend!!!!!!!!!
Too bad i am so far away - tried some Memphis (Dry Rub) pork ribs today
Boy were they good - nice back bite to them! But probably nothing like getting them there
Enjoy your weekend!!

Man oh man!! I got my junk all packed up and ready to go! I'm leaving early Saturday morning. Should be fun. I have a little surprise for you Harry, and no it's not another slot car, and I'm not giving you a hint. :mrgreen:

I'm so bummed I can't make it!!!

Hey, sorry some of you can't make it but glad we have a "noob" coming. In fact we have TWO newcomers to the old skunkworks.

Thanks Scoot...no need for that but I appreciate it. :)

Really wish I could be there too! Good to see Ken is going to make it. At least a couple of my heaps made it in my place. 8-)

Have a ball, guys. Remember you're having for for all of us, too. Lots of pictures, especially the embarrassing kind.

Be kind to Curly. His cousin Arnold passed away and was delicious.

I will be down between 9-10, looks like we are going to have a blast, might need some coffee.

All you guys that can not make it, maybe next year ;)

Have a great weekend guys. I'll be there in spirit.

Looks and sounds like a great time :D
I must not read the right parts of the forum.....didn't know you did this.
How often do you get together down there?
Probably said,but lots of things go zoom right past me :character-oldtimer:
Sis and Bro. in law just finished a house at Table rock lake. Would be cool to check it, and you, out.
I think that's in the area :?

Harry, don't start appreciating yet, you haven't got it. It's nothing that would make you quit your job over. :lol:

Hey, just your presence is a gift. Appreciate you making the trip.

The question is folks...will he have fun? We hope!

2Fer...check your PM sir.

We will have coffee!



All new "Silver Bullet" perker :) WITH fancy Starbucks grounds to go with it.

DONUTS for Saturday morning. Homer Simpson would even approve of the selection we will have in stock.
