"Builders Cup Light"
THANKS BOYS, THE CARS WERE A BLAST TO RUN, THE VAN HAD A LITTLE SHIMMIE BUT WENT OK...
GREEN #6 CAME APART WHERE GLUED, I WAS CAREFULL AND IT RAN FINE FOR THE NEXT 2 PAIRINGS,
I RE-GLUED IT, TAPED IT AND SHIPPED THE CARS TO SEEKONK AT 9;21 MONDAY ...
I THREW IN 3 CARS, ONE EACH FOR THE RACERS, 2ND AN ['05 FTE], 3RD, 4TH PLACE [MAINLINES]...
TRACKING # 9505 5108 8778 3175 3362 01...
SEEMS 442 CAN'T BE BEAT.... HE WILL ONLY HAVE TO "PARADE" DOWN THE TRACK FOR THE TROPHY WIN...
HE HAS EARNED IT !... GO 442 GO !
Just got home and found the package on the table. Everything seems to have made it safe and sound. Smitty, the FTE prize car goes to 2nd place, and the other 3 prize cars go to 3rd, 4th, and 5th? There are two others that don't have prize written on them. What are they for?
Ok, tomorrow (Thursday) I will try to get the bracket done and hopefully take some pics. The racing part is undecided yet as I have to work Sat. but may be able to run them Sat. night. Sunday's out as I'm playing in a golf fundraiser for one of the victims of the Boston marathon bombing. Worst case scenario I run them Wednesday night after work, or wait until Thursday morning and do our own Firecracker 19 (length of my track ) if there's no objections. I will let you know.
Great looking cars by the way! And Smitty, very nice job of getting rid of the tape on FOTF's van. It looks much better.
I did not know we should have sent prizes......
It was never a requirement....but there are some darn nice folks around here.
JDC, very cool sir...very cool. Wish I was going to be placed closer to the top, but like Smitty said there's always next year. And think of what you'll save on shipping....lol
Smitty failed to mention he is scared of hights !... low on the pole is perfect for a sloppy... but fred ? ? ?
.
also, I got the videos of the race, won't play on my laptop... took it to buddies, played, looked ok, the black track doesn't show much, going back to yellow...
the guy charged me $30.00... at that price I expected him to be able to post it somewhere...and for less than 1 minute, 15 three second races... he even had the spotlight 8 feet behind the finish... needed it mid-track where the cars are...
I was fooled, thinking he was a pro...I was going to mail it to "Mc World Traveler" but he will be away... lesson learned !
yeah I Hear You. Soon Enough I Will Be Doing Videos Also. I Know Everyone Loves To Watch The Videos.
