We are one(1) week out race fans, so get some Hot Rods ready and ship them out next week!!!
We got our cars sent off today. Here is a little video we made about getting them ready. Don't know that they'll be very fast (didn't spend as much time on mine as I'd hoped) but we sure had a lot of fun together.
That was awesome and a huge part of what the hobby is about...my girls are teenagers but still love to race and razz me when one of my mods turns out to be a sled. The Lady of Speed hates to lose at anything...so it's fun around here!!! This race will field over 40 cars...but fear not...we love it and will run as many that show up. Also, it looks like Trinity Racings 16 year old son wants in, but he also wants to mod a car, so they are coming over today to get some pointers and pick out a sled to mod for the race.
The Lady of Speed had a good idea....she said it would be cool if the whole track was off the floor, so the final 2' run-out section will be 6" off the floor...meaning the Trestle Bridge section at 12" will drop 4' in 6" to the run-out and finish line....I'll admit...I like it.
Working on the diorama for Widow Maker and Soul Taker....The Reapers Switchback is going to look sweet...still planning on assembling the track Thursday 8/31 and getting it fine tuned and braced properly...really looking forward to this race. Calling for rain here tomorrow, so I'll start cutting the stiff knees and get them ready to install come Thursday...more updates to come.
Four(4) more teams have made their way to Bootleg Run...they have to pass through weigh in and then some team photos later on this evening. The League of Speed Track Building crew got all the stiff knees cut today, so every piece of lumber is cut and the track is ready for assembly on Thursday.....more details to come in the following days. We also had another address request from another RLD affiliated team....fantastic...there is no such thing as to many cars for a race in these parts....send'em and we'll run'em!!!!
I HAVE 2 CARS ON THE WAY. THE BONE SHAKER AND THE '32 FORD.
