Final Tallies coming.
Great show Smitty!!!
Bufford T. Justice and the Bandit both made the semi finals today! The Bandit took down Miss Scarlet 'cause he was faster!!
"East bound and down, loaded up and truckin'
a'we gonna do what they say can't be done
We've got a long way to go and a short time to get there
I'm east bound just watch ol'Bandit run!"

Thanks 442 for taking point... just noticed that every team had a win !... GO RDR RACERS GO !
fast!
KHarvest--great job dominating this series! It's been lots of fun (as if that needed to be said).
.
... REMEMBER YOU ARE RACING ON THE BURNOUT TRACK, THE TRACK SIDES ARE VERTICAL NOT TAPERED LIKE THE ORANGE TRACK SIDES...YOUR [ANYONE'S] STOCKER'S WHEELS ARE SNUGGED UNDER THE BODY LETTING THE BODY RUB THE SIDES OF THE "ESSES"...
FIRST CAR TO GET THROUGH THE ESSES AND REACH THE DOWNHILL PORTION HAS A BIG ADVANTAGE...
TOUGH TO CATCH UP ONCE "HOLE SHOTTED"...
Smitty, Great covereage...from the attic!!! Love the burnout track. tends to mix it up...DBV's shoebox on fire today.
Congrats to the top finishers...well built and raced!
Great series everyone!

Can you please do me a favor and send me some pictures of the starting area on your track? Because I know we both use Dragtracks, and Miss S. goes well enough on those, but I don't quite understand your...starting thing.
Anyway, congrats to the winners, and Stroller--thanks for the great series! See all you robbers in the dark alleyways behind Kharvest Speedway next week!
fotf, Look for pix on ebay, dual speed brake and esses for sizzlers cars.... on the dual oval you had a black foot [brake] pedal each, this pushed air through a clear tube into the unit... the black levers would swing out, slowing the car before the esses... to little you crash... too much you lose !... they also stopped the cars to "juice 'em up"...hence the start buttons...
on the burnout track, I like the fact that the cars have to perform well through the esses, and the first to pitch downhill has "earned" a big advantage.
... if you are going to build one, 15* is the starter angle you need, less = unfair starts... more = wipe-outs.
.
if you don't want the esses [burnout] you can remove the esses, turn the brake unit 180*, the starter / reset still works and the orange track connects directly to it...
.
in the future, I may run a race with and without the "burn"...
Enforcement Might Just Have To Show Up From Being On The Run.
