Beetle Bonanza

Looking forward to getting more Beetles everyday. Thanks to everyone who is participating.  I will do my best to keep everyone updated on how your cars did. Please be patient, I'm a 1 man crew and will be as professional as I can be. 

Most likely going to run races random. No qualifying runs. Brackets will be set up as cars come in. Doesn't get much more random. If you have 2 cars Racing I'm going to try and keep them in separate brackets for first round. After 1st round it's out of my control.  

I'm a grown man so constructive criticism is welcome. Suggestions will be read. At the end of day I'm doing this because I love watching the races, and seeing all those custom cars. None of us are getting paid, so let's keep it fun and enjoy the races.  

Thanks to everyone who is participating.     And thanks for all the track love. Good luck to everyone.

Herbie and Lady Bug are about to hit the road. I was going to leave the Lady Bug as it was but it just needed a number and other racing decals. I touched up the 50 year old chipped paint and tuned it up a little but didn't pull the axles off for polishing; Lady Bug was keeping up with Herbie and my other fast cars with just a little graphite and added weight. They each weigh 54 grams and are completely stock except for weight, paint and decals. Good luck to everyone entering the race.

Opinions needed .. 

I tried to start filming for the Bonanza.  Ran into minor speedbump. Setup a 16 car bracket. Only 5 cars finished out of 16 races. Not very entertaining.    Out of the thousands of races I have filmed these were the worst. Jungle Falls seems to be a Lil to much for some of these Beetles. When I test everyone's car individualy,  they all make it down track fine. 

A.   4 cars 4 races, add checkpoints to track and do points depending on what checkpoint you passed.  

B.  2 cars 2 races alternating lanes.               Win 2 in a row and advance. (Finish the race)                                                                    If both cars win 1 race, winner will be determined by time. Whoever has faster time.                                                                     Checkpoints also in play.

C.  Run everyone solo and fastest time wins. 

Feedback needed, and welcome. Just want to get best race videos possible and be exciting at same time. 

                  Thanks Jason (justalilprick)

It'll be great which ever way you go... left my preferences on the other post! Good luck mate... we all want you to be successful on this great looking track!

I also replied on the other post on this subject.   Whatever works for you is the way to go.

Jungle Falls Raceway would like to wish everyone luck in the 1st Beetle Bonanza.  

I have decided to race 4 cars at a time, changing positions for 4 races. Also 6 checkpoints along track.                                 A win =3.  2nd= 2   3rd=1.  4th=0.                   Each checkpoint passed 1/2 a point.            Finishing points and checkpoints earned will be added together. If car doesn't finish only checkpoints passed will count toward score. The 2 cars with most points after 4 races moves on. 

Hope everyone enjoys the races, Filming has begun. I will keep all participating informed best I can.    

                 Good luck, Jason (Justalilprick)

Just want everyone to know I am really enjoying the Racing going on at Jungle Falls.  The Beetle Bonanza is in full swing. 

The videos will hopefully get better as I get more comfortable with editing app. Wish I had more time to dedicate to production but I'm doing my best.  

I have a total.of 68 cars racing in this event. If you haven't seen your car yet please be patient, I'm doing my best to get everyone involved.  I still have 2 more 16 car brackets to get through plus a couple..

Any questions or concerns please reach out to me, and thanks everyone for participating and support. Good luck to remaining drivers.
