Results for may 27th oval

We had a great first night of oval racing with
10 racers showing up even with the threatening
weather. This was the first real test on how the
10th scale cars would run. The track was designed
for 18th scale only but they bigger cars ran great.
The A main had some real good door to door racing.
Bill Jr jumped out with an early lead with Tawnya and
Shawn right behind. Shawn got by Tawnya and set
his sights on Bill Jr. Not long after Bill jr tapped the boards
and Shawn went by with the winning pass and grabbed a
half a track lead. Tawnya and bill swapped back an forth
for the rest of the race with Bill Jr pulling down second.
That was a great race and lots of fun.

18th stock was lots of fun too. With 5 cars in the
main. Two cars dropped out early, Ricky and Shawn.
The race was now down to three people bud, bill,
and dean jr. Bill got tangled up early and was playing
catch up but just ran out of time. Dean jr got the win.

Great racing and thanks for a fun night.

Hi Ed,

I did very well. I took down first in
mini z open and second in mini z stock.

The entire trip was great. We all had
a great time. The track was really
great and the competition was awesome.
Both races were less then a second apart.

See you Tuesday.

It's about 4 hours from CP NY to Lee NH.
We have some guys that used to race
in wakefield and K&N Race there.
I'm doing well just works been killing

Jimmay,

You know and i know that Open guys can't
race stock. :jest: I'll just have my dad Mr Reedy
whip me up a stock motor with the HeeHaw
dyno. :thumbsup:
The Evolution 10 had about 2 inches of dust on
it when i took it off the shelf. The Dark Side
is running really well for a car that is many years
old. I can't afford a new one so it will have to
do for now.

Well, Well, Well, If it isn't the old Sea Gull himself. And he's going to race a stock motor. He best get the old guy to fix one up or he isn't going to even keep up to the Coro Kid let alone Bill Jr. In case you can't find the place Jimmine look for the tire smoke and the sound of the "Hee Haw" machine. If you really want to try some fun borrow either Larry or Bill Sr.s BRP car and try to give Bill Jr. a run in the 18th scale division.

Hey Silverbullet,

Maybe I'll bring my FX10 out of retirement to show all how to run fast on the hot top! Does your hee haaw need to graze before you test each motor. :jest:

Just be ready, I was hoping to be there this coming Tues, but taking the kids out, so plan on the Tues after or I might make a surprise appearance to the secret run!

However, I drive like the #3, so I will have to lean on your car in the corners, if you can keep up :lol:

Well the anti rain dance worked. We got in the entire night
of racing in and on the way home it started to rain. So far
we have not been rained out this year....knock on wood.

We had 12 people racing 24 cars. 6 28th stock,
7 18th sedan stock, 5 28th mod, 6 18th sedan mod.

In 28th stock Dean Jr TQd but wasn't able to race the main
because his servo in his micro died and he was franticly
fixing it. But that didn't change the drivers competitiveness.
Larry and Jason battled back and fourth till the very end with
Larry beating out Jason. Great race Jason and Larry. Just think
Jason has only been racing for 3 weeks now. Bill Sr, Glen, and
Bud battled it out for the last three positions. Maybe next week
Jason.

In 18th sedan stock Bill Jr TQed with Tom a close second. Tom
had to leave early before the main so he didn't get to run. Bill Jr
took home the win but the real battle was for second. Bill Sr and
Dean Jr were swapping the second position back and fourth. Good
old Bill Sr Pulled a Jeff Gordon move on the last lap when the buzzer
sounded. Punted Dean Jr coming onto the straight away and walked
away with second and Dean Jr got third. Larry was right up in the mix
until he got tangled up and put on his side and lost a lap. He battled
Jason and Bud for the fourth spot. Bill Jr has to teach his dad
how to pass cleanly.

In 28th mod Bill Jr TQed but with stiff competition. Dean Sr came out
of his short retirement to challenge Jr. Dean Sr and Bill Jr were neck
and neck the entire race. Dean was driving his pro-z with a SO3
and Bill was driving his all kyosho parts mini-z with an xspeed motor.
Dean had much more horse power. He would be four feet behind Bill
in the beginning of the straight and four feet a head at the end. Lap
after lap Bill would pass Dean in the infield and then Dean would
motor by Bill on the straight. Dean took down the win with a
flawless lap at the end. Dean Jr took home third and Philip
with some handling problems was fourth. Glen finished up in
fifth.

In 18th Sedan mod Bill Jr TQed but again Dean Sr right behind.
The Main started out great. Bill Jr, Dean Sr, Brian, and Phil
were all battling for the lead. Bill Jr then was pulling away from
Dean and Brian. Phil was fading a little with a little less HP then
the rest of the guys. Brian lost a tire and dropped out of the lead
contention. With Brian out Dean then set his sights on Bill and
caught him with 2 minutes to go. Dean passed Bill and both battled
to the end with Dean taking down the win. Sams car was glitching and
Glen had a problem with his speed control after flying off the track in
the second heat. Dean Sr sweeping the mod class for the night.

Join us next Thursday to say farewell to Philip. He is moving to LA
and next week is his last day racing with us. We will surly miss
his company and all the help he has giving all the racers. He also
raised the competition level up a bunch with his driving skills and
super speed.

Thursday we had to say good bye to a great racer and friend.
Philip NG is moving to LA and it was his last day racing. So
we celebrated the time we got to spend with him and we all got
to eat some good cake. mmmmmm cake.

On to the racing front. We had an ok showing of people 10 racers
and 19 cars. 4 Mini Z stock, 7 micro stock, 5 mini z mod, and
3 micro mod. It was the hottest nights so far this year and the racers
didn't complain at all. Ok no much. The track temp didn't change
much all night so setups were tough to predict.

Mini Z stock had heated battles all night. Bill Sr TQed but Larry
and Jason were just as fast. When the horn sounded for the main
Sr, Larry and Jason were all battling for many laps. Jason faded a
bit but Sr and Larry were dicing it out all race. At one point Sr
had a good lead but waited up for larry to race. But near the end
of the race Sr dorked a board and Larry went on to win. Jason
ended up third and bud fourth.

Micro Stock A had great racing all night. Bill Jr TQed with Dean Jr and
Tom duking it out for second. The first heat had Tom finishing only a couple
feet behind Dean. In the main Bill checked out early with Dean and Tom
battling for second. Tom then picked up a stone in the gear and his car
sounded like a bike with a baseball card in the spokes. Dean finished
second with Tom in third.

Micro Stock B had Bill Sr as TQ. But in the main Larry was flying.
Hmmmmm. Bill Sr did all he could to catch him but with no luck and finished
second. Jason had a body rub and a couple traction roles and finished third.
Buds car was a little slow but was very steady and finished 4th.

Mini Z Mod was a race of attrition. Philip TQed and in the main battled Scott
for first place until Scott dumped and Philip took the win. Dean Sr ended up
third with Dean Jr forth. Bill Jr broke ever race so no need to talk about him.

Micro Mod was flying tonight. Bill Jr TQ with a track record of 38 laps 6:09.
Philip had to drop out after the first race due to a broken part. In the main
Deans car had a slight handling problem and Bills car was dialed. Bill took
home the win with Dean in second.

Thanks everyone who came out to race on such a hot day. Next week should be
cooler and the racing just a fierce. All the battles in the classes are getting better.
The new comer Jason is excelling faster then ever and we will be getting
more new racers soon.
Oval night looks great too. Three new buds cars to race against.
That makes at least 11 if we can get everyone to show up on the
same night. Looks like 10th scale will be getting better with Jim and
Dan bringing thier talent down.

Until next week.

This is Bill Jr signing off.

Well Tuesday night was one of the best nights we have had this year.
The weather was great. Not to hot, not to cold and the bugs stayed away.
We had 11 drivers and 18 cars racing. 8 10th scale stock, 6 18th pan stock and
4 18th sedan stock. A couple first timers to the track showed up today, Jim
Segel and Dan Pinkham. Both of them I raced with many years ago at the
roller skating rink in Newington NH. It was great seeing them again.

10th A main had a heated qualifying battle with Jim taking down the TQ but
only by a narrow margin over Tawnya and Bill Jr. When the horn
sounded Tawnya got a huge hole shot from the second position and got
underneath Jim and Bill sat in the back waiting for the dust to settle.
After the first minute Jim drove his way to a quarter lap lead over Tawnya
and a half a lap lead over Bill but a little driving error costed him first spot.
Both Tawnya and Bill got by Jim but it didn't take Jim long to get by Bill
and he set his sights on Tawnya. Then Tawnya and Jim got together
and Bill went by to take the lead. Again Jim and Tawnya caught and
passed Bill. Jim finished first, Tawnya second and Bill third.

10th B Main had Kevin as the TQ, Dan and Frank in second and third.
At the start of the race Dan and Kevin were running a nice nose to tail
race. Frank had a rough start but got it to together and was running great
half way through the race. Dan took home the win with Kevin in second and
Frank in third.

10th C Main had Larry and Bud racing. But because of a broken hub Buds
tire was coming off and the race was uneventful. But the Heat races between
the two of them was great. With Larry being punted off the track into the
concrete blocks as the crowd cheered.

18th Pan Stock A had Bill Jr as TQ, Larry second and Tom third. Bill
jumped out to an early lead but that didn't last long because when
he was trying to get by a back marker (Larry) he was put into the wall.
Bill recovered and the next time he caught the back marker he used the
old Jeff Gordon punt down the front straight to get by. Bill ended up first
with Tom in second only 3/4 of a lap down and Larry in third.

18th Pan B Main had Jason, Bill Sr and Bud running. Bill Sr rotated his
tiers and got his car hooked up better then ever. He jumped out to an early
lead and didn't look back. Jason and bud were battling for second. Jason
broke his front body mount and Bud took home second.

18th sedan Saw Larry TQ with Jason, Bill Sr, Bud and Bill Jr. At the start of the
race Jason took off and was flying. Sr was in second with Larry and Jr in the back.
Larry and Jr were side by side down the front straight when Larrys car wrist
glitched into Jr. This sent Jr into the wall. Larry latter on broke is servo
and dropped from the race. Sr had a little speed issue and couldn't keep up.
Jr battled back to find him self in a great race with Jason. The swapped first
and second every other lap. The last corner Jason had a half a car lead going to
the line but bobbled and Jr took home the win.

Great racing everyone. Hope to see everyone next week for another great
night of racing. Happy 4th everyone

Thursday was a light night because of the fireworks around the area and
the people going away for the weekend. We still had 8 people and
16 cars. 3 28th stock, 5 18th sedan stock, 4 28th mod, and 4 18th sedan mod.

28th stock saw great racing between Bill Sr, Dayna, and Sam. In the Main
Dayna and Bill Sr battled it out until then end with Bill getting first, Dayna second
and Sam third.

18th sedan stock had some great battles all night. Bill Jr, Dean Jr and Tom
finished on the same lap almost all night. When the horn for the main sounded
Bill Jr and Dean swapped first and second over and over. This lasted until about
30 seconds to go when Dean hit the wall and Bill got a comfortable lead. Tom finished
in third on the same lap, Bill Sr in fourth and Dayna in fifth.

In 28th mod Bill Jr TQed with Dean Sr then Dayna. Dean Jr broke his car in the first race.
In the main Dean Sr had some problems with his front tires coming off and finished
in second with Bill Jr in first. Dayna finished in third.

18th mod Bill Jr again TQed with Dean Sr, Bryan then Sam. Bill Jr jumped out to an early
lead with Dean and Bryan behind. Sam was broken and couldn't start the main.
Bill Jrs radio dumped mid way though the race and Dean Sr took first with Bryan
in second.

Until next week. We just hope the weather holds out and stays cool.

Tuesday was another HOT day at TC Hobbys.....both on the track and off.
We had 11 drivers and 18 cars. 8 10th stock, 7 18th pan, and 3 18th sedan.
Great racing in every class and great sportsmanship.

10th A Saw great racing all night. Jim was a bit off his game in the
qualifiers, only qualifying third for the main and it was beginning to look
like last week was just a fluke. Tawnya qualified second and Bill Jr
qualified first with a 61 lap run. When the horn sounded for the main
Bill jump out in first with Tawnya then Jim but Jim was flying in the
main and quickly caught Tawnya then Bill. Bill and Jim had a great
race for first but Bill hit the wall and lost a lap and Jim took home the
win with Bill in second and Tawnya in third.

10th B Also saw a great Main. Frank jumped out into the lead with
Dan in second and Kevin in third. Kevin got a little loose and got 3/4
of a lap down. Frank and Dan were battling for the lead for 3 min before
Frank also got a little loose and got stuck on the boards. Dan then got a
little tied up and Kevin caught him to battle for the lead. For the last minute
Kevin was trying to find a way past Dan and it went down to the wire with
Dan finishing first one car length a head of Kevin and Frank in third.

10th C had flying Larry and Blocker Bud in the race. Larry had his car
going great tonight and was driving great. Bud had a little bit of a problem
with his car tonight but was running well. Larry comfortably took down the
win with Bud in second.

18th A Had a new entry tonight, Jim. He was being sponsored by Bill Sr.
Well Tom TQd tonight with Bill Jr second and Jim third. When the horn sounded
Tom was in the lead with Bill second and Jim third. Bill passed Tom but then
dorked the board one lap later. Tom regained first with Jim second and Bill
in third. Bill was all over Jim at that point trying to pass him but Jim was holding
a great line. Finally Bill got under Jim but drifted wide in the next corner to
have Jim get on the inside. Down the front straight the two bumped a little
and Jim spun. Witch in turn collected the leader Tom. Tom was able to keep
going but his lead was down to a quarter lap. Bill Caught Tom shortly after but
Tom held a great line and only opened the door once. Bill couldn't capitalize on
the opening and Tom went on to win and Bill got second.

18th B had a good battle between Jason, Larry, Bill Sr and Bud. Jason was
flying all night and Larry was hot on his tail. In the main there was a bit of
slamming and banging but still had some good side by side racing. Larry
got tied up some in the beginning but recovered very well. Jason was the horse
to beat in this round but no one was able to catch him and he came in first.
Larry was able to catch Bill Sr to get second a Bud ended up in fourth.

18th sedan saw a brand new person race for the first time. Craig did a great job
getting around the track and staying out of the way too. Jason TQed and Bill Sr
was chasing him all night. In the main Bill Sr gave the rains of his micro to
Tom. Well the race between Tom and Jason was great. 5 Feet separated the
two drivers until Jason traction rolled and Tom took the lead and didn't give it
back. Great driving.

Hope to see everyone next week.

Just good old short track racing going on and a couple
of the old racers are coming out of the woodwork to
race. What software did you guys test? So you are
a F1 racer now.......i would break to many parts with
