Oh that's just priceless!!! Now I'll have that hideous image rolling around my brain. Well maybe not, they say the mind blocks things which are particularly traumatic. :devil:

hey-you guys can dress up for the halloween classic, but if any of you thick men get your skirts caught in your heels and face plant off the drivers stand-screw you!!! You better have your own health insurance!!!

I, too, am having horrible thoughts of 'kilts' and such running through my head.

At this point, I'm unsure of why I ever started this conversation this afternoon with Greg... look where I'm at now!

Well, I'm going to try and go to sleep... but the nightmares, the horrible nightmares...

Hey guys,

Well-the last runs were done on the great-but very challenging last layout Saturday, Aug 23rd. Love, Norton, Bailes, Chiky all came to play and great lap times were set. We are laying down the new layout before the first POints Race on September 21st in the next couple of weeks.

Now that Aaron is back from vaca-I will get the entry list updated-which is on page one of this thread.

I guess we got a month of bench racing now!!

I guess I'll get this started.

My bench is made of oak (and recycled plastic for the legs - gotta be enviro friendly) and will beat your cheesy bench made of plywood.

:p

I think a slippery plastic bench would have a lower coefficient of friction, and therefore be better for racing.

Greg Anthony

Leave it to Ian to know about coefficient of friction on plastic objects...

Yes Greg, on plastic objects. You would be the expert on the coefficients of friction on your personal items that I'm too gentlemanly to mention......... What was that you said about a kilt? :devil:

Being single and an RC racer I'll bet Ian knows alot about the coefficient of friction. BTW, my workbench is in my wife's living room. I told her to get all that frilly furniture outa there so I could bench race. I look pretty good in her pants.

the Kilt is wool, you should know what wool feels like, or is that a BBBBBAAAAADDDDD joke?

Heres the benches I'll be running the next 4-weeks in a useless exercise to end up racing the same bench I started with 10 months ago.....


Associated TBench3

Tamiya bencho 3


LosiBBBenchS

Losi BBBenchS Bench+

Hudy Xray bench 02 with C-hub.

Hudy Xray T1 with T1 legs Pillow bench suspension.

Associated TBench3

But-of course-the only 12th scale bench I'll race is the SpeedBench Rev.3

Rich Chang
08-25-2003, 06:05 PM
Wow, Ray -- that is quite a collection of benches you have there! I'll test their durability by sitting on them at the race if I make it. :lol:

Greg, I must admit that was a funny joke. :eek: Poor Ian.

I'm actually allergic to wool, and aren't you about blind from playing with your bagpipe Greg?

Greg Anthony

Entry list has been updated today. More of the Mod guys like Blackstock and Bary Baker, Adams and DeLano have now signed up.
In stock class-Lonergan (current ROAR National Champion) has signed up.

I cannot wait to see those Quad magnet Mod 12th scales riiip down the 90" back straight!!! YAAHHooooo!!!

Hey Ray,
If it's a 90" back straightaway there won't be much rippin. LOL. Maybe you and Father Buran might want to work on that. I call him Father because he "confirmed" Jake by e-mail this AM. Ahh! The power of the internet.

They'll be alot of rippin' on that 90" straight. It's so short Barry'll probably rip a front arm off going on to it, and peel off a rear arm at the end of the straight! :devil:

Exciting and scary!!! The boys are actually at the track right now working on the back straight. I rpaired all the seams Tuesday night. they appear to be very flat and I hope they dont lift again. we have to really be mindful of cars that are too low or screws catching the carpet this fall. Also people driving around on three or less wheels trying to finish the race. PULL IT!!!

Last week Jimmy built an entire tire truing area and car clean section. Basically any dirty work you wouldnt want to do in the Main room can be done in this new well lit work area!!!

So many projects-so little time!!!

Also-the trophy and plaque art got submitted to me today.. Lets say -AWesome and unique!!!!

I'll be there also this year for the classic (gasp). Hopefully I can remember to turn the opposite direction when the car is moving towards me.

Guys and gals, crossdressers, etc.....


I cannot stress enough to you guys how important it is to get your entries in NOW. Now that some pros have signed up, the floodgates are opening. I am getting e-mails from Team Losi, etc. making sure we save spots for their drivers while they mail in their entry forms.

We are over 85 entries if I count all the "save me a spot" people already.

I see a lot of missing names from our locals...Dont get closed out then come pleading to be let in. If we keep letting more and more people in-well be finishing qualifying in time for breakfast!!! Ian will be eating throat lozenges like Candy!!
