Bob, thanks for posting the link for the numbers. Looks like the Mabuchiracha ran good but had a loose wheel.

Hang in there, Bugman. Not all countries can be a squared away as we are ! I disagree with you, I think the entire event has been fantastic, and great entertainment, except for Spain. Think positive. We are all going to eat tonight even if our slot cars break.

I'm sorry Jairus, but this round has been a complete farce. I know that it is not your fault and I feel for you. I would suggest, however, that no matter what the results, we disregard them and move on. We have wasted two months on this leg, with one race half run and a second run incorrectly. Let's get the cars to Low and put this one behind us.

Looking forward to the next round,
Al.

<sub>I agree, I have a feeling that they have not understood that it was the cars that were racing and not the people.
Reading Jordi's report I think that they may not have even run all the cars

"Shots were two rounds of 6 pilots each draw for vehicles and track: Almost 26 vehicles have been used."

As there were 12 drivers I think they have run just 24 cars, each running two cars.

Let's hope they get back to Steve quickly so we can forget this and get on with the next round

BTW Steve any idea on a date for the NL round? If I'm free I'd like to come and help, even if it's just making the tea!</sub>

Sh*t happens, it's not a perfect world by any stretch of the imagination.

Chalk it up as a dropped race and most importantly LEARN from it.

Let's move on and forget it. UK, here we come!

PS - Oscar, there were mistakes here in the USA too. My car went flying in California because a "Pro" hooked up wrong. Happens to the best of us. The cars HAVE to be raced to make it interesting. You can't just creep around the track on pins and needles. Please don't quit, we are all a team. This is special, there are many, many POS plastic car proxys, no other Thingie proxys.

[HarV Wallbanger III]

I think Oscar will stay in. Is it the animated pectrons that these Thingies are full of that make a Thingie Proxy so hard to get ran? Go read about the Sunchaser Proxy.... it's like reading War and Peace!

I say we move on and drop this race. My car need some fish and chips! I think the guys at Speedzone in NJ would love to race these cars for us!

[HarV Wallbanger III]

I just talked to Mike Iles at Speedzone and he would love to run our toys! He has a cool track called the Jersey Devil that would be a great track for this. Let's get on to Jolly Old England and get the cars running again and ...and Let'z Race!


Here

[tonyp]

mike also has a beautiful 220 engleman. It would be a good choice for the next proxy...

[MantaRay]

They will have to change the lap counting software..........so it shows
Good Ride
Good Car
Very Good Car
Really Good Car
Really, Really Good Car
Sorry, I couldn't help myself

[Jairus]

Speed Zone sounds very do-able! All we need now is someone committed to running the cars Korrectly and willing to take responsibility for care and handling of these "golden idols".
John Havlicek lives in N.J..... right? Oh John?

[HarV Wallbanger III]

No John is in New York. Mike will love to do this for us and has ran some of the best races in the east!

[HarV Wallbanger III]

Mike sent me this and he will run a race with Noose race reports!

I hear we need another track as well so I say Brian at REM would be a great choice as well! How 'bout it Brian?

[HarV Wallbanger III]

I see someone corrected my misspelling of Mike's last name... Thanks!

[TSR]

Whatever you guys want, if it comes to BPR please let me know and I will help as much as I can.
I wish I had the time to build a car but not right now...

[Gator Bob]

Streaming video, Jay, Noose, Gorski, John S. John H, .Duffy and the whole gang....this should be freaking awesome.

[HarV Wallbanger III]

YEP!

[MantaRay]

You forgot..........The "Agitator" Wes P. and of course Matt Bruce............

[HarV Wallbanger III]

Yes we do want Matt as well for the race with the Devil!

[Gator Bob]

Good Idea all around Tony and Barney....Bring on all the East Coast Legends !!!
Thanks for stepping up Dokk.

[Jairus]

The cars are in the air! They are currently being shipped by salvat Logistica.
Will let you know when they arrive in North London. Steve will have to post who and what machines are needing repairs.

That's all I know.

Tis true. I will be part of it as well of many of the guys from Retro East and the NJ ISRA flat track gurus that Mike plans to contact for this.

[Gator Bob]

[HarV Wallbanger III]

Hey Tony maybe da little lady will let you come up too play toy cars too.....?

good to get them out of that SH#THOLE SPAIN and all those morons who TRIED TO put the races on,
whatta joke it was there,1/2 the drivers looked like little kids,
also the track was wayyyyyyyyyy under powered
and reading the spanish tranlation,that ANGEL posted here none of them had EVER RUN CARS LIKE OURS,,
that Jordi person,couldnt even put together capable drivers or a track,,(and he had 6 months to prepare)
throw that SPAIN RACE into the garbage,,,
lets see what condition my #15 arrives in to Steve K,,,i'll make my decision then to stay or,,,,,
but having them go to NJ Speedzone,with Mike & Jay in charge will be 100% better ,,,
they will get real quality East Coast Legends,like Swiss and Barney did in their areas,when the first races were run.
