Just remember,  I may not be the most Worldly guy, but I'm in the top Two !

Can not wait to see all the dead come to life at the Dark Universe Race, because we normally put mirrors under the noses of the Buena Park racers before the start of a main anyway....

Hope all the Zombies make a safe trip down, and if you don't, remember to insure with Jeff Bell, you are in good hands with Jeff !!!

Deal me life's toughest cards, without chance for hope nor fame, just let me play this one last hand, and I'll win this whole damn game.

Jim and I have run the Kingleman backwards some with Womps.

When running "proper direction" the doughnut to lead on to straight to bank it's basically the same as the King.

Turns out that when running backwards what was the lead on isn't so bad, you just have to find the right breaking point.

The real killer was the doughnut, cars get very unstable entering and going through a doughnut while the track is falling out from under them!

even when Warmack is running in the proper direction, his mind is still racing backwards.......

I guess it's his own way of "reverse engineering"

In a Dark Universe, the slowest forward speed becomes reverse -  and may make your head bang...

In the Reverse Universe, I hope that everyone comes out and supports Jeff Bell and Nesta this weekend, as Stock Cars and Backwards Can Am's will be on tap....  Just show up, have a good time, and you never know what may happen,,,,,,,,maybe one of those Evil 9 motors will show up ? ? ?   or was that a Demon ? ? ?

Well Mike, I plan on being there to support Jeff and Nesta, and I plan on racing both races, and probably setting up the computer for everyone, so if that is insincere,  then guilty as charged.... 

 

But that's what a Trigger Monkey does....

Zip,
Needless posts are pretending you are encouraging people to come to a race and then add a comment at the end of your post that there's a good chance someone will try to sneak in an illegal motor.

Understood.

I misunderstood your inside joke.

Now please do not bring up my name needlessly in SCRRA threads.

I don't race there nor make/influence policy.
