Just wanted to let everyone know that, thanks to Noose sending me the pics, I have added top and bottom pics of each podium car to the appropriate posts. This is, of course, in addition to Noose's downloadable PDF showing all the cars in one file that is available in post #47. I will merge that thread into this one so the Fall Brawl info is all in one place.
 
Additionally, I deleted a number of atta-boy and congratulatory discussion posts (including a bunch of my own) to make this more of a straight-up race report for the archives of IRRA® Premier Events at Slotblog. Hope no one's feelers' will be hurt...

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

Thanks, Cheater.
 
I love the higher resolution photos of the chassis.

In case anyone doesn't realize it, the car pics open up to twice the displayed size when they are clicked on.

Thanks to Mike and everyone at SpeedZone for putting on another amazing race. I had a great time and enjoyed seeing slot racers from every corner of the country all in one place. Thanks to everyone who helped me and Jack throughout the weekend; it was well appreciated. Congrats to everyone on their wins and Brinkley for the overall.
 
Thanks, Greg, for doing the race reports and keeping everything on Slotblog very detailed for those who weren't able to make it.
 
Awesome racing all weekend!! I will be back next year for sure!

Some of the cars are using front wheels that look like white plastic ball bearing wheels. I have never seen them before.

 

Who makes them?

Thanks Mike, Mic, Noose, Brandon, Mark, and Cindy for an awesome weekend!!

Great to see all the fast racers from around the country. A one-of-a-kind event. If you haven't been to a Brawl, make plans to come. It's what slot racing is all about! Rock on!

The "Sidewinder Snake" 2018 chassis. First place RetroPro.
 
Special thanks to Duran horsepower, a custom-built Pro Slot X12 motor, David Parrotta custom-cut tires, and to Doug Griffith for his racing support.
