Factory Wars {A NEW MAIL-IN}
That was EPIIIIIC!! Great job, EC! Way to build 'em!
Also, thanks McJiggles for hosting this superb event, and nice try to TE at slicing up Darth Ubotanium.
yippie eye oh kiyea... bummer, eliminated by the overall champ... that had to be the closest finals ever... great stuff !
but.... beating the black w/ flames kamairow with a johnny lightning MUTT ! ... priceless
I know, Smitty--a decent ride seems like a rare thing for you these days! How they've done here and in the Drag Cars in umbelievable! But let's face it; you're getting excited over beating one of our 'lesser' Camaros, in a close race, with a modified car that's probably pretty darn near 75 grams. It was Carl's Ubotanium win against mine which was impressive--and that's assuming my Camaro's speed was fully restored.
As for open track, for the most part I'd rather not. You can use the Football if you want, and the maybe the Side Kick--and you can run my Camaro against a few other cars on the track used during Factory Wars if you feel like it--no open-track--but otherwise, I'd prefer to have them returned--by this weekend, if possible--in one piece.
Thanks again for running this!
hey foft... why don't you READ the race results... a 2nd, 4th and 5th in the 4 classes of the factory classes... running 2nd and 3rd in the drag cars...
it is humility that you can't comprehend... my cars finish well, but i comment on the winner's taillights... when a new guy does well most of us racers pump him up... try that instead of just talking about you... self debotchery is the key... when one heckles another one should add the caveant of cutting themselves down a tad in the prossess... check 442 and carl comments after a win...shure there is a wooo hooo... but they both complement the other racers...
also your BWFC was last of 2 bwfcs and 2 vetts in the prelims..
.[who do i send the '05 FTE ferrari 512 to ?]...
.
it is "sinister dog's" bwfc that has proven something... beating HIS bwfc was what warrented the comment... HIS bwfc got beat, but HE is a winner !... act like him !
I too was cheering loud at the final, can't believe I squeaked 3 wins from that gold plated, blue wheeled killer. Very exciting racing!
Final 8, JDC, Rally case, Smitty...we all had our shot at Carl...all came up short. Well done Carl...that final 4 photo had lots of yellow in it. Trak Tune made it farther than I thought as well. And JDC was right I had to use a 300C ...if you can't beat them, join them....
FOTF, for reference....none of my cars were 75g....Pretty certain 57g was my max. You said we beat a "lesser" BWF Camaro....Why would you send in slow cars? I consider this topic closed.
Again ATTA BOYS go out to the Hosts great job pulling this together and presenting it all.
Nice job doing all this Jiggs! Even though I was out early. I knew there was a downhill run, but I didn't know it was THAT long. That was my failure. At least The Caddy (the slowest in Florida, since here, old ladies drive them. ) made it into the 32.
And Carl remains at large.
One last comment for the father and son hosts.
Loved the Star Wars theme with the videos - and I really think you guys were on to something in regard to Carl's dominance. He's sold his soul to the Dark Side in return for other-worldly speed -"the Force is strong with this one".
Also, Rally Case and Weber Cabin: you two really stepped up your games with some amazingly speedy builds. Keep 'em coming -see ya at the next contest.
Congrats to Carl on the win and also to TE for making it to the final. Those were great races!
Awesome job McJiggles on hosting this shindig. The videos were outstanding! I am officially out of popcorn and beer.
