Go Rollin Go!

Go Rollin Go!

Thank you, sir. Now I know how the golfers feel that win when Tiger Woods isn't playing ..... Glad to win but mindful of the competition.

BTW ... on the Tri-Oval, I used that old, mangled Champion T-Flex with aluminum pans that was too ugly to sell. It's now raced at Daytona three times and has two wins. I don't even know if it will make a right-hand turn.

Hope you can make it to a race or two. It's always good to have you at the track!

No man ! I don't think I've outrun you yet the oval. You're as good as any!
Hope to be back soon,

Most of the local usual suspects were joined by a loyal group of travelers - including one from Georgia - to combine for 47 entries in Race #5 of Florida Slot Car Racing's My Series at Austin Latham's Phoenix Raceways & Hobbies in Jacksonville, Florida.

Thank you to Austin and his crew for having the Raceway in top shape for the event and to Michael Rigsby for serving as race photographer in Marty Stanley's absence (feel better soon.) And, thank you to Pete Crawley at Crawley Distributing for helping insure that the parts cabinet was well-stocked.

I wanted to add a picture to what Marty posted. The gentleman on the far right in the Gators Tee is Rollin Isbell, the spark plug in our Florida My Series racing. A big "Thank You" to Rollin and his tireless efforts in getting everything organized and operating as smooth as possible in this race series. Here you see Rollin where he usually is, at the Tech desk, that is when he's not racing himself.To Rollin's left is Austin Latham in the purple shirt, the owner of Phoenix Raceway.

Thank you, Rollin.

Mike,

One of the things that most racers don't understand - there is a lot of work and preparation that goes into each one of these My Series Races.

Some raceways have to reconfigure there place of business just to make enough space for everyone to come out, have adequate room to setup and race at the races. Bill Pinch is one of those raceway operators that goes the extra mile and takes his tri-oval apart, stacks it up against the wall and fills the void left by the absence of the track by tables so everyone will have an adequate amount of pit space.

Just think of all the tech opportunities, race directing, turn marshaling and such that has to be intact to make the race successful.

Each person that takes on a job to support the My Series is dedicating a part of their race day just to make sure everyone has the opportunity to have a great day 'playing with little toy cars and making them go fast!'.

Heck, when I got sick, you stepped up to the plate and agreed to take the photos so that the rest of the group could see their cars - I just think that makes the results so meaningful - photos. The guys that spent the extra time on making their race entry look good enough to win the Concours title for the category they are entered in is just an example of all of this.

I for one see the number of entries down this year in My Series. If you ask 50 racers why that is, you will more then likely get about 55 different responses. However, if more of the racers took it upon themselves to do just one thing - show up for at least a couple of the remaining races:

The Raceway.biz - Cocoa, FL - Saturday, July 11th

Miracle Mile Raceways - Leesburg, FL - Saturday, August 8th

Phoenix Raceways & Hobbies - Jacksonville, FL - Saturday, September 12th

They would see just how much effort goes into making this racing program what it is . . . . Lots of Fun and very competitive!

Rollin is the cog that makes all this work, even though you and I are both in trouble for bringing this to everyone' attention. It is something that must be said, because it's true. When you have someone that is halfway across the United States the afternoon before a race, flies home on Friday, then gets up at "O-Dark-Thirty" just to drive several hours to make it to a race - well my friend, that is what Rollin is all about. Doing what it is that no one else seems to be able to do - make My Series work.

Thank you Rollin!

If anyone knows how to get in touch with Bill Stuyvenberg, please have him call Austin at Phoenix Raceway. His left his Amateur Nascar racer there Saturday.

Yep .... both of you guys are in trouble.

But it's not me. It's the racers in the state of Florida. And, it's the track owners.

The racers have shown up every month with their equipment ready to race which has led to very few issues at tech in. That makes the whole day go faster.

Most months this year the Track Owners have stepped up and taken on the burden of checking the cars at tech and directing the races. At The Raceway.biz and at The Race Place I don't think I touched a car or a computer the whole day. It was all Bill Pinch and Greg Walker making it happen at their respective raceways. At John's Slot Car Garage we all pitched in because John had just entered hospice the day before.

And at Phoenix, there were a lot of people who made the race possible. I heard that Austin and some others (maybe Johnny and Larry?) got the track cleaned and prepped on Tuesday. (And it was darn near perfect on Saturday.) Buddy spent a good portion of his morning working on a lot of Spec Amateur cars --- other than his own --- so that more people could race. He even made time to true a set of tires for me so I could try a different compound. And, as Marty pointed out, Mike stepped up and acted as Race Photographer for the day. All I really did was tech cars because Austin isn't as familiar with the cars or racers. No big deal.

Thanks for the "props", but there a lot of people who deserve them as much or more.

Mike, Richard posted on another forum that he called Greg at The Race Place and he'll let Bill know where he left his car.

Florida Slot Car Racing race number six of the 2009 My Series season visited Bill Pinch’s The Raceway.biz in Cocoa, Florida on Saturday, July 11, 2009. Thank you to Bill, his family, and Lloyd for making everyone feel at home and able to enjoy a fun day of racing. And more importantly, thank you to the racers who made the day possible.

In anticipation of a light turnout Bill decided not to disassemble the Oval and instead use it for the Spec NASCAR classes. I’m sure that made for some exciting, side-by-side racing. Wish I could have been there!
