haha, I dunno about that. I really only included Bedlam because it looked cool and thought it might be good on the long tracks cause it holds its speed well. I also only included the matchbox because uhhh it was a matchbox. neither are very fast. haha. The other two are my "serious" competitors... a bit of a shame that my super comp faced the #2 car in round 1! Im curious to know how well it did against it!

Hah, nice one Carl.

One thing I'd like to add to the next event is a grade for each race, much like Brian does with the Fantasy League racing.
That way each racer knows if it was a blow out, car length or neck and neck race.

It will be interesting racing in 2 weeks with one track being longer and one track being shorter than TLD's.

Can't wait!

I think that's a good idea. I don't think I could have pulled that plus the photos off without an assistant. That would give the people at home an even better idea of how it all went down.

I can tell you one thing though, after the first round almost every race was very close.

Gettin ready for their 1,700 mile trip from Sonora CA to Austin TX for round 2!

Awesome job guys!

I'm just happy to have made it into the final 4.

Now it's off to Austin!!!

Hmmm, I think Carl's new avatar is an intimidation attempt.

Ah yeah, finalists party in the V.I.P. room. Good times!
