June race options...
Some more ideas:
1. Corvette Summer. Loved the movie as a kid (even made a pinewood derby car inspired by it) All modded Vettes. Since I'm new I realize you guys might have already done something along these lines before.
2. Off Road/Baja. I have a decent amount of Matchbox cars with knobby tires. I would think the tracks would have to be a little different to reflect this. I don't really have any good suggestions on how to change them. Maybe a small hump or two. Maybe a section of track with sand paper taped on it to suggest slightly uneven ground. May not be feasible.
3. Motorcycle or 3 tire rip-n-roll
I still love the Autobahn, 3-axle, and Mad Max ideas too.
That is a great idea FOTF! I have wanted to see a modified rubber tire race on here forever!
It's not a race but my kids and I were watching some Smackrel Café videos on youtube (we love those) last night and he ran what he called a Route 66 track where he laid out 50 feet of track with two "humps" and two 180 turns from a drop. The point was to see which car coasted the furthest. Of course the 3 FTE's he included took the top three places. Reminded me of some the cool stuff done with the Trans Am road race event.
Back in the winter of 2013 Stroller ran the Pickup Pavement Pounders race, had a 90 somethin' gram weight limit, any pickup truck allowable. It was a special event to me, as it was the first RLD Mail-in race I competed in. I've always wanted to see a sequel to it... maybe something for us to consider? :)
