We had a little trouble getting the stream started this morning, as I won't be in Thomasville until later today, but we have it going now here at Slotblog as well as at Facebook on the Slotblog page and my personal page.
Tomorrow, the stream will likely appear at Facebook only on the Slotblog page, but will run live all weekend here in this thread here at Slotblog.
Results for today's GTC class races will be posted later tonight. Results for the classes to be run on Saturday and Sunday will be posted very soon after each race is concluded.

Here's the results from Friday's GTC-Am and Pro races.
GTC concours winner - Ray Bedal.
GTC-Am class had seven entries, so a single race was held.
Top qualifier for GTC-Am was Dave Mader with a 5.714 sec lap.
Here's the GTC-Am podium. Nice to see Dave Mader's pic here at Slotblog for the first time (I think!).
There were eleven GTC-Pro racers so the format chosen was an eleven-man round-robin.
Top qualifier for GTC-Am was Duran Trujillo with a 5.134 sec lap.
And the GTC-Pro podium.
Duran's first place car.
Danny's second place car.
Terry's third place car.

Yeah, we're running late. Had to acquire a wireless extender and install it and then figure out the best place to mount the camera.
Today's stream is now showing in the first post in this thread (at 800 pixels wide BTW) and is also being broadcast on my personal Facebook page (Gregory Wells) and Slotblog's Facebook page (both at 500 pixels wide).
If the above info doesn't jive which what you are seeing, let me know.

I thought the rules stated MASKS REQUIRED.
Why so many folks not wearing them?

Requiring is one thing, enforcing is another.
Happens the same everywhere else I go... some people break the speed limit, too.

Enforcement is not that hard...
Mask up or don't come in! It's simple. I hope everyone has fun and someone doesn't die.

OK, we've relocated the webcam to the orange track and I have embedded the proper code into the first post in this thread.
F1 tech has just closed and there are fifteen entries. Loading the race computer now and F1 qualifying should begin shortly.

The final class at his Retro event is Can-Am, which today will be on the Engleman. We've already moved the camera and started the live stream, which I have inserted into the first post of this thread, as well as have running on both my personal and Slotblog Facebook pages. Again, the feed image is larger here at Slotblog.
Seventeen entries have passed tech and qualifying is underway,

Can-Am concours winner is Bill Vanderziel.
Can-Am TQ is Duran Trujillo with a 4.966 sec lap.
With seventeen entries, the race format will be an eleven-man round-robin B Main, with the two top finishers in the B advancing to race against the six racers seeded into the A Main by their qualifying times.
The B Main should be flagged off in a few moments.
