       Congrats John Cukras on TQ in F1 and a well deserved 3rd!!

       Bad luck John Gorski in F1 as his motor let go with a possible win in sight!

And everyone owes you a big thank you for the great report, as well as all the great help you provided to so many who could never have participated if it had not been for it.
We all owe you big!

Completely agree with Philippe. Bryan does a LOT for SCRRA and its racers who might need some sort of help. Not to mention the race reports, pictures and getting his own cars ready. Thanks for all you do Bryan.

Thanks for everything Bryan.You work your *** off for slot car racing. I had a great time at the Checkpoint Cup.

[Mike Who?]

Most definitely a HUGE thanks to Bryan!!!! Doing reports, photos, taking questions and still getting his program and helping others with theirs is awesome. We are a very fortunate group.

Well, my attempts to upload videos failed. UHG!

I had a blast! Thanks to all who worked to make this a great event. I will return next year.

Thanks to John the Jet for tipping me off that my body was ripped out at the pin tube.

and thanks to NOOSE for the neat prize.

[Tom Eatherly]

Ha! Bryan, I think that's pretty close. But, I'm thinking the East Coast fellas will let you know.

I received my Checkpoint poster from Nesta in the mail today and it had the signatures of many of the famous racers in attendence. What an incredible memento, one that will be framed and displayed in my library next to my other prized possessions. Every time I look at it I will be reminded of my favorite hobby. Unbelievable.
