I heard from Greg Fox yesterday and he's coming to the race.

Also, Les Chase confirmed, and barring disaster, will be in early to try to get a handle on the Flat track.

I'll be there. Leaving today but won't arrive until Thursday or Friday. Stopping to see a relative and visit a couple of museums on the way up.

My usual partner-in-crime, Jay Guard, is in Florida and will not be attending.

Matt, if you were addressing Ralph Thorne, he isn't coming.

What is he?

Like McCloud? LOL.

I also heard from my old wing car buddy, Kevin Rowe, today, and he said he was intending to come, at least for Can-Am on Sunday, and maybe F1 on Saturday.

I'm out-gunned by you pros but love slot racing and Retro is my favorite series.
 
I'll be there. I feel like a kid waiting for Santa to arrive.
 
Lee Verdich told me he'll make it Saturday.
 
Bernard Powell will be there, too. The two of us might comprise the Sano Rookies.

Eric is a race director extraordinaire! I love the way he runs the show, the comments, in person or over a web-cast! I also enjoy Mike McMasters and Mike Swiss - adds to the entertainment value!

 

Was planning to come but work rose up its ugly head and I had to cancel. Good luck to all the participants, I am certainly envious! Have a great time!


Sorry about the nerf. "Sorry? Sorry? There's no apologizing in slot car racing!" 

Besides, where would I even begin?   I should probably start with my wife ...

 

"I don't often get very many "fast laps" but I very often get many laps quickly." ™

 

The only thing I know about slot cars is if I had a good time when I leave the building! I can count the times I didn't on one two three hands!

And has just landed.

For racers seeing this, it looks like about a 9:30 opening at the raceway.
