Thanks! - Still have a couple ideas i want to implement in the presentation, but I think it's almost there.
I've rolled the Rescue Ranger on the table top and I predict good things. I stuck a few pennies and some clay in there for good measure. Waiting for the J.B. Weld to set up before I send it down the track.
I really like your race presentations. Some great visuals! Seems like you're having a lot of fun with this. Glad you found us and are now racing and sharing.
(I've got to finish my FTE vs. non-FTE Showdown. My new wife is keeping me pretty busy right now, so it may not be till the start of the new year)
Looking forward to seeing more from ya TLD.
The grading system in the fantasy league was a good idea but it needs some fine tuning. It does the job but I might change it up to better denote how close races were. Although I just grade based on what I see so it's not very scientific to begin with but I think having something other than specific times to give folks a clue as to how close things were is a great addition to any racing stats.
Having a grading system that would introduce some sort of "weight" that could be used in math calculations would be sweet. Somewhere along the way I'd like to program a Race Calculator that looks at race history and win grades to give best probability of who will win a match.
Getting slicker all the time, great job!
And can I pick 'em or what! But then again, who couldn't pick that race.
Have you rolled the new improved Rescue Ranger yet?

What is the blue car is paired against the 'Deora II' in the 1st heat?
Looks like a Chrysler Thunderbolt to me. Hard to tell in the pic though.
Yes it is a Chrysler Thunderbolt. Good eye!
Thanks WorpeX & TLD...I recognize the rear window shape now.
TLD, Did the Twin Mill III "put up a fight" against the Power Rocket?

Thanks, it's a lot of fun for sure.
Brian has been using a simple lettering system to describe race results for the fantasy league...

...maybe you could use something similar?
