Manta Ray and I will be running "time trials" with the cars. Details to be posted soon. Johnny Slotcar

[Jencar17]

It would be a real pleasure for me to invite you again to a race in Germany on my Minerva (# 376, 509). I'll pay for all expences concernig delivery to Minerva and back to all racers or the next track. Let's continue this fun - project!! 

 

 

[JohnnySlotcar]

Sounds great to me! We will have a competitive time trials all cars driven by experienced [on Wanker Valley Raceway] drivers.

[slotbaker]

Time trials are ok, but I'd rather see these cars racing...

 

That's why I entered. 

 

Sorry to be a stick in the mud, but if there is not going to be any head to head racing in the USA, I would like my car returned.

 

Mr Manta Ray sir, can you please PM cost to post my car back to Australia.

 

Thanks.

[Jaak]

Great Idea Jens,

Would love to see my car and the others race at the Minerva track in Germany 

[Jencar17]

Steve, it would be a real pleasure to send your car to Sydney after the Minerva - Race, if you would like to stay in the race!

 

[Gator Bob]

Where is Pablo on all this ... Is he procrastinating on his reply to the all the rapid developments and changes to this venue?

[SlotStox#53]

Bob , Pablo is deep into Retro territory at the moment

[Gator Bob]

Paul,  not good enough.

No excuses ....

Don't be an 'Owl' chump. who,whoo  

 

I think he's mad a at me, he hates 'My' music.  

[slotbaker]

 Jens,

 

Your offer is very kind and generous to all the entrants.

 

I'm a bit disappointed at how long this has dragged on without any action, and I would like to get some fun from my car.

Either by proxy racing (preferably in the USA), or by me personally bashing it around the track.

 

If you think a race on the nice Minerva track could happen reasonably quickly, then I'm up for it.

But if the next race is 'months' away, then I'd rather have my car back.

[Gator Bob]

What Mr."King of the" King said.

 

Except he called my car a bomb   ... I told that dag that I would pass that Aussie dux like a Bushmans hanky in a tornado...

...or something like that

[Tim Neja]

Well my knee is coming along quite nicely! I should be good to go by the end of March.  If you guys would still like to see them at "The Hillside" --I'd be happy to hold a proxy RACE here around then or the first of April.   Let me know and I'll get the drivers fired up--- we also have a BURT truck race scheduled around that time.  So we may be able to combine the day of racing for both!! Let me know if you are still up for it.  I'm game if you guys are.

Thanks

Tim

[Pablo]

Glad to hear your knee is better, Tim

[Jaak]

I am game for all. good to hear you are better Tim.

[Jencar17]

Steve,

 

a race on the Minerva should happen quickly. We had have several Proxy Events, like 2 Thingie Events with King Edo. There are some races over the year, so that it should be no problem to get enough experienced drivers.

 

 

[slotbaker]

Tim, it's great that your knee is recovering, and I hope it continues to improve.

 

So, it sounds like our bombs  could get 2 more races in.

The Hillside and Minerva.

 

Any other entrant interested in 2 more races?

 

Edit: to clarify my post.

[Jaak]

Wish I could run a round here in France or Swiss (I live on the border of Switzerland)

I race at 3 different clubs (one in France and 2 in Geneva Switzerland) but all 3 are plastic tracks ( Ninco-Fleischman-Carrera ) and can not handle that type of guide.

[slotbaker]

Jaak, I think my post might be a bit confusing.

I wasn't asking if anyone else was interested in holding another round.

I was asking if any of the other entrants were interested in sending their car for 2 more races.

I knew what I was thinking, but it didn't come out right. Sorry.

 

You're a lucky fellah with 3 places to race in 2 different countries.

[Gator Bob]

I used to be indecisive but now I'm not so sure.

[Jaak]

Hehehe Steve thanks for clearing that up.
Nothing lost nothing gained 

[Gator Bob]

No takers, no dates ....

 

I've been watching this with a hairy eyeball and it's looking to be about cactus.

 

So ...

....after a Dingo's breakfast Gator Bob is going down under, across the coathanger and take on Crocodile Dundee in the outback for a death roll.   

Winner gets a vegemite sandwich and a frosty, looser eats Witchery grubs.

 

Ol' Mick has good oil ...  

[slotbaker]

   : You're killing me Bob.

 

Yeah, it's a bit sad, but it looks like we have come to the end of this great race.

[Gator Bob]

   That's the plan ....  

[Jaak]

But what about 
 

Well my knee is coming along quite nicely! I should be good to go by the end of March.  If you guys would still like to see them at "The Hillside" --I'd be happy to hold a proxy RACE here around then or the first of April.   Let me know and I'll get the drivers fired up--- we also have a BURT truck race scheduled around that time.  So we may be able to combine the day of racing for both!!

Steve,

 

a race on the Minerva should happen quickly. We had have several Proxy Events, like 2 Thingie Events with King Edo. There are some races over the year, so that it should be no problem to get enough experienced drivers.

 

 

 

 

Does that not mean two races are still in the running.....end March and as fast as Jens can set one up after that. (post time taking in account ofcourse)

Any idea on that Jens?



Or are you Bob and Steve getting cold feet now that my bugs have been sorted  
(yes those are fighting words  )

[slotbaker]

Any other entrant interested in 2 more races?

 

No Jaak, no cold feet. 

 

Nothing has happened for a while, and apart from yourself, Jens, Bob and myself, there were no other takers for the 2 races mentioned.

It's dissappointing, but it looks like most have lost interest.

 

So, I would like my car back.  Bob is interested to see how our 2 cars go against each other, so he is going to send his car to me, and my mate and I will give them a run around a tri-oval we have down here.

 

I'm not trying to end or railroad the series, I just want to have a bit of fun with my car.
