LOL, Mark, you are too kind. I did have fun though with my "dinosaur" once I got used to those tires and settled myself down. The first race a link came off at the rear shock tower. The corner marshal never gave up and got it back on after about 3 laps - bless his heart. I could make up all the laps but one. Would love to have more powder puff, but I realize this is unusual. I did buy a set of spikes also, so now I have both Mini Pins and Spikes. Gotta glue up the spikes. At least I may have something now for Salem too. Oh, and discovered I had a badly leaking rear shock and tons of turf fuzz at the bottom so pulled out a toothbrush to brush it away. I didn't know it, but Kelly noticed it and commented to Don that I didn't need to do that anymore, LOL. We really enjoy the friendliness and helpfulness of all you racers at Albany. Our favorite bunch of racers. See you next time!

Wondering how I can find race results for older races on LiveRC, say a couple weeks back. I can find current results, but have not been able to find any past race results. Is there a particular way to find them?

Unfortunately, I don't know of a way to get "archive" results out of LiveRC which is possibly aggravated by the spotty Internet at NW (most of the last Thurs' mains never got pushed up to the web as it is).

Track rebuild should be underway early this week - new rd stand, new drivers' stand location, flattened surface with new wood jumps, etc.

Thanks, Mark. I was just curious on some of the Sunday results and who all showed up from Portland. I may try to make a Sunday race sometime.

Race night! If you haven't seen the re-done facility, you'll hardly believe you're in the same building.

Won't be able to make it for a few weeks yet, I think, unless we come on a Sunday. The photo does look amazing!

Potluck and Powder Puff Racing tomorrow night - the place just keeps getting better with the new pit setup making it seem even brighter.

Layout should have been changed for the series but I won't get to see it for myself until next Thursday.
Also, the store has been re-stocked as well as possible for those coming that will need spikes/pins and front tires for the turf.
