We had a great day of racing yesterday. It was hot, but the shaded areas of the church parking lot provided areas where some drivers could pit without even without putting up their easy ups. I've never raced with a better group of people who just came out to race and have fun. We had rookie drivers, young drivers, and old drivers. Everyone pitched in to help clean up which we greatly appreciated. Our youngest driver, Ethan did a great job. Angela our rookie driver did a super job. Special thanks to Steve who brought his trailer for our drivers stand and even brought an air compressor. The Slash Class provided the most thrills, spills and fun. Watching six Slashes and one SC10 coming down the long straight away was great fun. There was a lot laughing and friendly kidding in that class. John drove Slash for the first time using a borrowed truck and finished second overall. He did an excellent job! I think their may be a Slash in his future. We had a few more drivers which added to the money that the church will receive. Thanks to all that came. I've included the race results.

We had avery good race today. There was a small turnout, but everyone had a great time, there was great weather, and everyone pitched in to help. John was a big help setting up, Steve brought his trailer for the drivers stand, and everyone help to pick up the track. Our two young drivers did a great job! I'll be posting the results and some pictures in the very near future. Special thanks to Gary and Scott who washed the track to get rid of the pop we sprayed to increase traction. You can go to Chi Town RC forums and see some great pictures Gene took.
Here are the racing results from yesterday's racing. We had a small turn out and a great time. There were four new racers to our races. Two of those drivers, Michael and Alex, were young drivers. They did a great job! Most importantly, we raised money for the church. Thanks to everyone for their help. It hasn't been decided if we will have another race.

If the race tomorrow is canceled (rained out) early, I will post it here.
It had not rained early so Gloria and I went to Winfield and with John Rebel's help the track was set up about 8:50 AM. About 9:10 the rains came. We waited for a while then with John's help we took down the track. John really saved us a lot of work. He stayed and worked in the rain helping us. John did a great job!

We also had some new drivers which included some very young novice drivers. The novice class is always fun to watch and these kids did a great job! The Tamiya Mini class was a lot of fun. The TranaAm Class started with three VTA cars and one stock touring car and ended with three 17.5 cars and one VTA car. It was fun to watch. We want to thank all our new drivers which included Nick, Tim, Sigi, Stephan, Daniella, Elizabeth and Hayden. Thanks to Ken, Peter, Sigi and Scott for helping to clean up. Scott stayed until the very end helping Gloria and I put a way the boards and clean the parking lot. His consistent help is greatly appreciated, The Church appreciates the money. So, thanks to the racers for coming. Our next race is July 31.

Racing Tomorrow At 11:00 Am!:)
We had a greaT race yesterday. If you like racing Tamiya Minis, come out and race. We had eight yesterday. After a little rain and we had help from John and Bob, who came for the first time, setting up. Jeff helped dry a couple of wet spots with his leaf blower. We had great racing in all of three of classes. Jeff and Ken did an excellent job in the TC class, but Bob hung right with them with his VTA car with unbelievably consistant laps. The Slash/SCT Class was fun to watch and entertained the kids from the neighborhood watching the race. Watching multiple trucks going over the jump at the same time was exciting. The Tamiya Mini Class was evenly matched throughout the day with great driving and a little bumping. Thanks to our drivers who had to do extra marshalling with our small turnout. Special thanks to Ken, Jeff, John and Scott who stayed to the end to help clean up! OUR NEXT RACE IS AUGUST 14!

The racing today was excellent. Ken J. and Nik P. had great battles in the TC class. John R. drove extremely well in the Traxxas Rally class, but was tested throughout the day by Austin P. and Gary P. Austin schooled Gary P. and MD in the Off Road class with his Revo. John R. had the dominate car in the Tamiya Mini class. Thanks goes out to Nik P., Mark, Erwin, Clarence and Jose who came out today. Thanks to Austin's parents who helped marshal today. Thanks to Austin for helping clean up in the rain. Thanks to Gary P. for staying until the end to help clean up. Special thanks to John R. for coming early and staying late to help! We got all of our races in except the last minute of the Tamiya Mini Main. It helps sometimes to hold your races in a church parking lot. The church really appreciates the funds raised through racing.
