SCRRA Retro racing is back on the King track at Piranha Speedway this Saturday. The usual SCRRA schedule with F1 beginning in the morning at 10 AM followed by a short lunch break and Can Am starting in the early afternoon.
Despite the easing of Federal mask restrictions recently, California is still requiring masks at all indoor activities....apparently till June 15. So, see you there and bring your mask!

Solid run by Tore to the victory and a super close race for the final podium spots between Tim, Bryan and Sam!
Fastest race lap to Tore with a 3.84. Tore Anderson has now won some kind of organized professional slotcar
race in 7 decades! Congrats Tore!

2) Tore Anderson 366
3) Alex Freund 365
4) Mill Conroy 361
5) Sam Rackham 361
6) Bryan Warmack 360

8) John Wakamatsu 343
9) Eduardo Arriva 342
10) Brad Adams 339
11) Joe Gallagher 335
12) Earl McCutcheon 157
Duran took off and from the 1st lap slowly ran away and nearly equaled his track record total of 375 laps! And, as in F1, a super battle for the final podium spots with Tore just edging Alex at the end! Good runs by John Wakamatsu and Eduardo in both races as they haven't raced for a while and great job by out of towner Brad Adams! Fastest lap to Duran at 3.65.
Things are slowly starting to get back to normal as a few more racers are coming out and people are hoping that the masks will be a thing of the past in California VERY shortly!.... Thanks to Rich Curnutte for all the hard work and aggravation he has endured during this Covid mess with all the sanitizing and cleaning over the last year and for race directing and lastly thanks for all the donuts you provide for the racers on race day!
The next SCRRA Retro race at Piranha will be on the Flat track Saturday, June 12th and maybe by then we'll be able to put the masks away for good!
