Never forget that first place goes to the racer with the MOST laps, not the racer with the FASTEST lap

The only thing bad about Retro is admitting that you remember doing it originally.

The 2014 Checkpoint is now history... and it was a great race for BPR.
I wanted to point out two great West Coast Stars that are sometimes overlooked, that is, unless you're a BPR local and they smoke you every month. these guys are Gary Donahoe and Jerry Johnson. Both Gary and Jerry are true old time slot racers... that race hard every lap, but treat others on the track with respect,and they are true gentlemen with class.
Gary had a great weekend at the Checkpoint making both the Can-Am and F1 podiums... and Jerry was the fastest guy in F1 just about every heat of the A Main but had a gear issue that hurt him.
I just wanted to point out these two racers and congratulate them on their great driving, and say that I'm proud to get to know and race with them both.
Thanks to all the racers at the Checkpoint!Take care all...

I will just say that I think the spirit of hand-out motor racing is that you should only run the motors you receive in the draw.
