Congrats to TE also for his #48 Robber car coming in 2nd (not that we condone a life of crime).
Nice job and congrats to Delta 6 and Nightstalker on rounding out the top four!
I just want to say thanks for letting me get to run this series at my house and also for the LJLRC being able to run them yesterday. Tons of fun!
I'd also like to thank FOTF (Cameron) for giving me a hand racing the cars. It's always nice to someone pulling them out of the catch box when it 22 feet away!
Great job hosting DVB, and I see on FB you took home some hardware as well!!! Wow lots of racing action this weekend... hard to keep up. C&R #2, City race, Monster Jam, and wrap it up with C&R #3...
Looks like my Fast Fuzz is looking to hang out with the BWF Camaros, couple more thousandths...very cool. Thanks for posting the times. Which track did the cars run on? I saw two in the photos? Just curious.
Delta 6's cleaned up the 3rd points party...way 2 go...along with Nightstalker making his presence felt... Rally Case still in the mix along with Webber Cabin... couple new faces in the final 8....
GREAT WEEKEND OF RLD/LJLRC RACING!!!!
POINTS!!! seriously Check my math...
1 point for every win
1 point Extra races for 3rd-4th in each class
1 point bye run

- TE, we ran them on the two-lane. That's the only one with a timer. — Dadvball

I'll have these heading to Jersey Tuesday. Chris, I'll let you know what the tracking number is when I get it.
Cars were mailed Tuesday morning. Expected delivery Thursday. Tracking #9114 9012 3080 3446 6809 11.
The Cops and Robbers arrived, safe and sound...but I had to keep them separated, they kept fighting amongst themselves!
On first inspection, everylooks to be in good shape...I'll take a closer look after supper
Everybody is looking good!
I will set up the brackets and post them tomorrow. I was planning on giving the top 4 from last week's race a by in the first round, plus the first car I draw (since there are 5 first round by's ). Does tgat sound good, Stroller?
Also, the Cops and Robbers are in store for a long distance chase on Saturday. ..I extended my orange track to 28 feet and I lowered the start height down to 28 inches...we are going to find out what cars can roll! Then, onto my Drag Track on Sunday!
Good luck to everyone!
Oh, Hey Guys,
Since we've been talking a little bit about having some series cross-over action, racing the top cars from one series against another. I just got my Javelin back from KandO, so I'm going to run a couple of grudge matches against the winners from the Cops and Robbers races this weekend...just for fun!
The Javelin might stand a chance against the Robbers, but a couple of those Cop cars looked REALLY fast on my drag track last night!
Any thoughts about how the Javelin will do?
Chris
- don't they end up stuck in the dirt ? — model40fan
- the car...not the pointy stick. Although, the cars can end up that way too! — 72_Chevy_C10
- I up for running the Javelin... — Traction-Event
Hey Guys,
I did the brackets this afternoon, but I forgot my phone today, so I can't post a pic right now. I'll post the brackets tonight...and I'll run the first round...and maybe, the second round too!
Stay tuned!
- Low and slow track first? I predict come from behind wins in the races...for all — Traction-Event
- Yup, the low and slow, orange track will be first...starting tonight, finals tomorrow morning! — 72_Chevy_C10
- go redline derby racers go ! — model40fan
