Ok... the ironic part.

Did anyone notice whose body (and car) Jack Beers ran? First car in this thread. During practice on Friday I hear the Chicago guys ask... "anyone got a spare F1?" I say, yup... hand over a car with a chassis I built in a car that I use for practice and lend out to guys to run. Joe Mig ran it here on the East Coast in our last race.

Anyway, Jack is a very, very good body painter and we shared tips, etc., during the weekend both at the race and back at the "Ken Swanson Thrashing Slot Car Emporium", better known as the Econo Lodge. It is pretty ironic that here is Jack running my car and a Noose body and taking 3rd in F1 concours!

Jack is a great guy and he is very talented, especially in detailing cars. He has a trademark I discovered when he does interiors but that is a trade secret. :D

Yep, Jack's little trick on the interiors works great. He showed me the trick while we were watching Ken make his cars go slower!! LOL.

OUCH! :blink: :blink: :blink:

My cars were not slow. Did you see how fast my "A" car was going when it hit the wall on Saturday morning? :shok: :shok: :shok:

My "A" and "B" cars took wall shots Saturday, that's why I ran that piece of crap pictured. But it really didn't do too bad (13th out of 29). Either the car was better than I thought or it was my superior driving that brought it home to thirteenth place finish. :rolleyes: :laugh2: ;)
