I told you Jaaaak

WTH happened to # 6 car ?

[Jaak]

whoooohoooooo

Thanks Randy, and Paul for keeping the faith up for me.

[Jairus]

I have mentioned at least twice in the past that Eddie pulled out. His car he felt was undriveable. I think it's no different from any of the other cars but... that was his choice.

See Jaak, prayer works and we are GOOD TO GO!

[Jaak]

Yeah you are right Jairus,
should have some more faith in things, although sometimes difficult when it is way to much on your mind....

Not that i was really worried or anything

It is 12:34 am here but there is a strange bright glow emitting from our house

[Pablo]

Yes, Jairus, I read where Eddie pulled out. But I didn't make the connection to "Eduardo"
My fault. I know better now. That car looked great, I don't see how it could be undriveable.

I know a lot of people probably don't associate "pablo" with a white USA man either
I walked into a raceway once and found out they were expecting a Mexican dude

Does this mean Eduardo is exempt from Concours ? Sure is a nice car......

PS Jaaak, do you want me to send you a bag also ? Mine sure comes in handy at times

That explains why you now wear a sombrero to all slot car races .

[Pablo]

It's not a sombrero, it's a 20 gallon Texas hat.

[macman]

You borrow that from Marty Stanley???

[Bill from NH]

Where's your horse? Mine are down cellar.

[Pablo]

I commandeered it from Marty Stanley. After the photo shoot I commandeered a scooter from an Applebees parking lot. Just for photos...I'm not a thief.......

I'll be driving this to Chicago.. I leave tomorrow morning.

Apparently withdrawn from the race due to handling issues. Could be possible to get it to SoCal though?

My wife walked by the stack of cars this morning and said "what is that nice wintergreen smell". I didn't have the heart (maybe balls) to tell her it was tire treatment.......

[Jaak]

Lol,

I bought a bottle of wintergreen only to see how it smells like,
after all the stories i became too curious.

[Champion 507]

i also bought some wintergreen and put it in my old Hoffman slot box, just to give it that "1960's smell".

[tonyp]

I love the smell of wintergreen in the morning, it smells like victory....

[Gator Bob]

Now that Trinity has moved to Florida have you come out with Alien Na-Palm Traction tire juice ?

3 parts Palm oil - 1 part Reptile Blood - and a smidge of SPF 50.

All local Jungle materials .... Ahhh, smells goood... in the morning.....

My Aunt makes it and I put it on my Pan Cakes.

Have you tried touching the soldering iron to an old Mabuchi endbell. You ain't experienced nuthin' yet!

[tonyp]

My eyes burn just thinking about it.
