Ken

Hi ken

I'm not my mom but yes we will be racing this weekend. Just 3 more left in the season. The last 2 are points races.

Also the last race on Sept 18 will be rain or shine. Point series awards, prizes and food. Will happen even if it is raining so come out.

As many of you all know, points awards that are handed out at Lazer are some of the best around. This year is no exception. I think this years will be the best of them all!!!(don't ask what they are cuz I will probably get in trouble saying just this much)

LAZER Points series
September 11th
September 18th- Last points race. Plan to attend Rain or Shine! Point Series prizes awarded.
September 24th 6th Annual Ann Arbor Night Race.
Then.....

Off Road at Washtenaw!!!

I just wanted to remind everyone that there is a Points race this Sunday Sept. 11 and the final Points race is Sunday 9/18.....then we will be closed for the season. We do hope everyone will come out both of these races......
Russ & Leslie

Great racing at LAZER Sunday!!
F-1 class was fun and FAST!!
Stock racing was close and furious!
Only one more race day left in the season!
Come and join the fun.

I second that!!!
I think that was one of the best races since the series started.
I guess rcpimp is down for the count, does anyone know whats up?
Will the results be posted here?

Glad you guys had a great time! Next week will be a blast!!
We are sorry about the day running long, next week we will start promptly at 11:00. We will have a real full day with the prizes and trophies & the feast.......I will do the points today and post it here & at rcxxx

Ditto, Russ and Leslie, you two make Sunday racing an enjoyable event. Derek, it doesn't get any better than racing nose to tail for most of both F1 mains, thanks for some exciting racing! Can't wait 'till next season.

Ditto , ditto, I had a battle going with Ferrari #1 and I know that the finish was extremely close like probably by 10ths. I am anxious to see the outcome.
To Russ and Leslie congratulations and thanks for another fantastic outdoor season. I haven't been to any other outdoor programs for a while, but I bet you would be hard pressed to find a better one in this area. See you next season
BP out!!!! :thumbsup: :wave:

Russ and Leslie,
Your race track, program and freindship are what help make Michigan Racing some of the best in the country.
Keep up the good work!
Thanks for a great race season!
Dan

Russ and I want to thank all of you for the nice comments, card & money! We are glad you all had a good time this year, we did too. The friendly competition & helping one another is what makes it so much fun! :thumbsup:

We saw some new faces this year & I think some of them got hooked on Lazer & we will be happy to see them again next spring! Many of you have been here since the beginning & we hope you know how we feel about you....

I will post some results later today. Fred B was really outstanding this year with 100%, 7 out of 7 points races, of Top qualifying in 19 Turn!! And as though that wasn't enough he was 6 out of 7 Top qualifying in Formula One!! Derek took one away from him! ;)

We are also so appreciative of those would stayed to take the boards off the track!! Next year you will see a new surface & other improvements...

Thank you to Noah, Chuck, John Swider, Washtenaw RC Raceway (Dan & Carlos) for the prize donations......and especially to Jeff Todd at Riders, Ypsi for his generosity all season!!! Also to Mike McMahon at $McMoney Designs for the great Pitboards(trophies)

Thanks also to everyone who brought food yesterday: Our daughter in law Kimberly, Lisa Pray, Becky Devine, Barb Bury, Stacy Discher, Memo Raupp Everything was delicious & a nice ending to a great year!

Hey Leslie,
Any chance you could post the race results at least for F1?
The points totals are great, but because of the combined mains format I left not knowing where I finished in the race. Thanks in advance and I am already looking forward to next season. :wave: :thumbsup:

Brad, here are the results of the last race. I just got them from Leslie. Compare your time with mine! That is what I call close racing!!!! It was a blast racing with all of you. Looking forward to next season and little more racing this Saturday at the night race.

If anyone is interested I started a thread to replace the F1 thread that we had on pimp.
Also, maybe we should get one going on F1 R/C
Just a thought
