Hey everyone, here is the final race. If you're interested in looking at the bracket and all the matchups, you can find it here. http://challonge.com/Thunderroad

This one has been a lot of fun...and a lot of work. The next race - The Hazzard County Drag 'n' Fly will be on Sept 26 and I'm shooting for the 10th of October for the final race in the series, the Desert Baja. I'll be updating team points soon.

Ok, on with the Final!

Yikes time flies (ha ha). If I haven't missed the flight I'd like to put speed bump and one of my diesel boys on the runway — cliffordshaw

Got the track set up! Took a few pics just to get you excited. Sorry they are a little blurry. The racing will get underway Saturday evening. I think like the last race I will be posting video rather than immediate results.

11/10, looks awesome. I actually copied your track design for a hotwheels tournament I hosted recently and it made for some great racing — Skuxmobile
Great looking track!! — Rusty

HOLY FREAK!! THAT TRACK IS FLIPPIN' AWESOME!!! LOVE IT!!!

Cool fun track! Interested to see how things play out. Back in the day we used to jump for distance but never to stick the landing and go — cliffordshaw

Diecast64 9/29/15

Hey guys, sorry I didn't get an update posted sooner. I ran the cars on Saturday night. I ran a single elimination bracket this time with the first car to win two races moving on. I also ran a couple of mini brackets to determine the top ten places since a single elimination tournament only gives you first and second (more about those when we get there). Here is the video of the first round. I'll try to keep the videos coming as quick as I can. Enjoy!

I have noticed at least one title error. A few races in the Rally Case vs USA title is wrong, but the result titles are correct. — Diecast64
That was great! Some really fun racing after landing. — cliffordshaw
high flyin action, epic wipeouts and crashes — Traction-Event
Also forgot to mention that one of Traction Event's cars and one of FOTF's cars had byes this round as they were the top two teams going in. — Diecast64
just incrediable! i love Happy Campers landing then bouncing back to his wheels at 27:27 — 2seven
when i loss to TE (often) i atleast prefer it be in the finals! — 2seven

Diecast64 9/30/15

Here comes round two! If you lose in this round, be sure to stay tuned in, as all these cars will be racing again in the future to get some places sorted out.

Great tunes, and better race...ER jumping — Traction-Event
Lots of tumbling in this round. Time spent on roof not a barrier to winning! — cliffordshaw
Loved CCR silver forcing the DNF at the finish line funnel! — cliffordshaw

Diecast64 10/1/15

Here is round 3. Like the last round, any cars that lose in this round will race again in the future to sort out places.

I'm calling this the "house of pancakes" round because there was so much flipping — cliffordshaw

Diecast64 10/2/15

Here are the rest of the videos. The first is the semi-finals and final race. I then did a third and fourth place race. Next I sorted out 5th-8th and 9th & 10th with some mini brackets, first one to win moves on.

couple of top ten finishes in this field... can't complain about that. Great race idea! — Traction-Event
Spoiler alert: I think two best cars did indeed rise to the final. Cool that it ended on a perfect flight by the caddy. Best single run of — cliffordshaw
The whole tourney. Also some maddening blocks but many more spooky clean "drive arounds" — cliffordshaw

Traction-Event 10/2/15

The last race is the Desert Baja. It will be on the 10th of October (which is next weekend!) Fast turnaround from the last race, but I have some Halloween props to build. :) I still have some work to do on the Baja track. Hopefully it will be done by the 10th, but if not, I will race soon after.
