Jordi said the race starts at 16:00 hours. That is 4 in the afternoon. According to my calculations that was 14 minutes ago.

"Go Dynamic Challenge 7th Race!" (Fingers crossed)

[Gator Bob]

Jairus, On the big track?

[MantaRay]

Excellent coverage........Not

[Jairus]

We can't all be like Barney Ray.
Yes, on the big track Bob.

[Gator Bob]

Very Cool...but there could be some serious carnage.
I think some cars might be coming home this time, hoping Jorgi found some good drivers and a camera too...

[MantaRay]

Lead, Follow....you know the rest............Sorry............In this day and age there is no excuse for bad or zero communication...........Doesn't have to be video..........(but it should) just post something......somewhere..........Mr. K will show us how its done

[HarV Wallbanger III]

Good Luck to all the Dynamic Racers! Ralph Klose got his two Orange Crate Clones this week so I hope they work as well as my original Crate!

They look great Barney! Is that Velcro?

Has Ralph entered one or driving today?


Speaking of cartoon characters, is anyone Tweeting about the race.

[HarV Wallbanger III]

Is that Velcro?........................? Bob?

Thanks go out to Billy Bob for doing the bods!

[Jairus]

Update: Results will be posted soon, but it's getting late over in Spain. The race is complete and soon as I know the results I will post a translation. What I did learn is that there were three casualties during the event. Do not know which cars were involved and it could have even been mine. No worries, this is all a part of the competition and has happened before. Steve Kempson, I assume, will be the one to make all repairs prior to the London round.

[Gator Bob]

Barney, Not the body mounting....The white stuff at the endbell....Diaper?

[MantaRay]

Jairus,Thanksfor the update........I'm glad Jordi had the race

[Jairus]

Diaper?

Yeah, wear them if you got'em.

Jairus,Thanksfor the update........I'm glad Jordi had the race

You ain't just whistling Dixie!

[Gator Bob]

Jairus, Diaper reference was to Barney's car not your post..bet that was confusing...???

Thanks for the news "the race is complete" ...understanding it was out of your control it really was a Challenge.

Darn it, forgot to wear my T shirt to the local track tonight in all the excitement Jorji provided leading up.
That is/was one of the coolest looking huge flat tracks on the planet.

Hope for some pics or video, now...if they do come through I may need a diaper or run with the laptop.

Shots were two rounds of 6 pilots each draw for vehicles and track: cars with engines very powerful in this track 13V and 200 AM 8 lanes. Difficult driving to a that the pilots put everything on their side to be able to drive. Almost 26 vehicles have been used.
Count of laps of the circuit that gave many, many problems. Once finished the two rounds was made a third leg with 8 first, pilots having to finish the competition in the second change, due to problems in the conta laps, being impossible to its resumption because the schedule.Giving by mistake 1 º - 2 º - 3rd classified pilots with single number of laps: the two most recent.Leaving the correct classification with three disputed sleeves.

I've asked Angel for a list of which cars each driver was in charge of, for obvious reasons, and I'm hoping that enlightenment will come soon.

Same text via Google Translate which is slightly less mangulated:

"Saturday

There were two sleeves of 6 riders each, draw and track vehicles: cars with powerful engines on this track of 13V and 200AM for 8 lanes. Difficult to lead to the pilots did their part so that they can drive. We used almost the 26 vehicles.
Lap counter circuit which gave many, many problems. Upon completion of the two runs was made third sleeve with the top 8 drivers, having to finish the competition in the second change, the accounting problems in turns, is impossible due to its resumption in error horario.Dando 1 º -2 º -3 º rated pilots with the number of turns one of the last two cambios.Quedando the correct classification with the three races sailed.

11 º J. Jose Gracia (Abandonment by problems with the remote) when I was tied to the first qualified laps of the second set.
12 th Angel Butcher (Abandonment by problems with the remote) to the third change of the first round."

My reading is that the 'hot' motors gave some trouble to the drivers and/or the track power supply and I note some possible controller problems with the 11th and 12th place drivers.
Regardless of this, and still awaiting the actual car's results, the race has definitely been run and the cars will be on their way to London as soon as possible where I can give a detailed report on each one's present condition, service them where needed (and wanted by the owner) and the NLSME round can be arranged.

Maybe this will be the day in the sun for my stock Mabuchi ?

I'm Sorry..........This is not 1966..........we do not need to wait 2 or 3 months to see results in a magazine.............communicate the results to the director.

[HarV Wallbanger III]

Barney, Not the body mounting....The white stuff at the endbell....Diaper?

DUH... yes I delivered the cars in old Pro Slot 1/32 crystal boxes each and needed a way of holding them in for shipment.

We really need to get this stuff on track nailed down for the next Proxy series! What power the track has, what surface the track has, how the cars will be ran..... all before the 1st race even starts.
Can anybody make heads or tails out of this "report"?
The idea of a proxy is to have all the cars run all the lanes and the drivers rotate thru the cars.... The cars should be prepped the same etc... etc... Having 1 driver drive the same car is not right.....!

[chief32s]

Barney, you are quite correct... The playing field has to be levelled. But I'm waiting for the full race report, maybe we are missing something. ??

[MantaRay]

What Barney said........Drivers SHOULD rotate thru the cars...........I'm sure Jairus will correct me if I'm wrong...but I recall him saying that he was NOT getting much feedback from one of the proposed tracks for next year.
