We meet on Monday nights and run four classes on this lovely three-lane home track in Bob Sax's basement.

We run a couple of six week series events, one being what we call the "Falcon Challenge" basically a stamped steel chassis, retro body, and of course a Falcon motor.

The "Rookie Challenge" is for the newer guys to the sport and track and is a sealed 501 Deathstar with 8/28 gearing and any closed cockpit medium to high downforce body.

Another Monday in the books and the boys from Akron made the long trek and one of them brought the heat all night while the other was like a bottle rocket 1 flash of speed and then a lot of fizzle after that.

That is a body they run at his track on those cars, him and Breadman both had one like that and they seemed to be a really good body for those cars.

I want to thank Sax for his generous hospitality. He invited near strangers into his home and shared his stuff with us. I had a great time and look forward to starting up in the fall. See ya all at BCR.

[gonegonzo]

HI Sax.

I used to race at raceway Hobbies. I'm the racer that bugged you about the Willys body and raced with Mike Straub.

I was wondering if I could horn in on a night of racing with your group?

I've been racing at Mark's Model World in Canton , Ohio and running T-Jets with the VASCRA group.

With my work , I work construction , I probably couldn't commit to be a regular.

I probably know most of your racers .

Let me know.

Thx , Tom DeLauder aka Gonzo

Another beautiful fall night at the Rt. 46 Speedway. And the track was on "FIRE" as we saw a new track record in the Falcon class, and a first in years as GT-1 Pro-Am ran 3 minute heats where again the track was on "FIRE". We were again graced with the presence of our friends from Rt. 93 making the long drive down. Jim "Vintage" Ciccerro again this week took home the "Chicken Shizzer Award" which is given weekly to the person with most "Chicken Shizz's" for the night across all the classes they ran in.
