Ray,

We're slot racers, you know, so we're all a little odd! LOL!

After one heat, the leader is Ralph Thorne with 38 laps, followed by John Streisguth and Bobby Robinson both with 37 laps.

OK, it looks like the names were loaded into the computer incorrectly, so I'm not going to be able to put up heat by heat placings in real time for this Semi.

There will be no problem posting accurate results once the race is over.

Well, Roger has paused the race to correct the names and to manually input the first two heat lap totals. So I should be able to post heat results going forward.

Well, things are still a little confusing regarding lap counts, so I'm just going to wait until the Semi is complete to post.

Thanks for reminding me, Ray. The food was going so fast I had to stop posting or potentially go hungry! LOL!

In the B Semi, after one heat, it's Ron Hershman 37 laps, Jay Guard 37, and John Martin 36.

This is some of the best F1 racing you will see on any track. Ultra-clean and fast, fast, fast!

After heat two, Hershman still leads with 75, with Guard on the same lap. Radisich is third with 72, driving magnificently with an ailing car.
