Marty 01-30-2005, 11:02 AM I missed LF last year due to some unfortunate circimstances. I attended a couple of them and really enjoyed it. I hope to be there again this year.
The slot cars are the highlight for me!

Marty 01-30-2005, 11:45 PM Is there going to be a car show this year?
Marty

Yes, we are working on an outdoor car show right now, getting the details nailed down, so there should be. We will have a definite answer within a couple of weeks

Holy Moly Looks like were gonna have tons of fun.
See you at the 2005 Fest ;)
joez870 02-01-2005, 10:41 PM It sounds like a blast from what I have peiced together. I need MORE info! :)
Shadowracer 02-02-2005, 12:46 AM OK I'm not a die cast guy, but this sounds like fun. Gravity racing??? You mean like running your cars down Hot Wheels track? For prizes? (I keep thinking "This I GOTTA see") And what with this Rocket 500 thing? Is there a website where I can see one of these things? I googled it but didn't come up with much besides message board posts talking about them. Is it similar to the old HotWheels Thundershift 500 track?
I just might find an excuse to head down to this.

Good Morning
Gravity racing is on a 40' (I think) long aluminum track. We are getting the track fixed this year after it was abused by the people taking care of it a few years ago to get the timing lights and electronic finish line working. You race each other to get the Grand Prize - in past years it was a Mirror Topper Ferrari and El Camino - and a 1 of 75 Pink Slip Racer (PSR) if you happen to draw that race and win.

Rocket 500 - Hand operated, wild racing at its best.. some Topper and JL cars have the hook underneath to use this track
I will dig up some oics, I know I have some somewhere
