What we are talking about is a Christmas party race NEXT week, the 17th. This is also the last race in the fall points series.

We are working out details at the shop, but we are thinking of along these lines:
Free race entry for those who bring a toy of sorts to be donated to a children’s charity (Toys for Tots OR project Bundle Up)
If you do not have a toy, a portion of the entry fee will be donated towards that charity.

We also ask that you bring a covered dish of food - we will have a food area for these dishes. This is where SIG and others (I) can FATTEN up to be jolly.
More details to come... but plan on it! You will be able to read more details on the website within a day or two of this post. www.steelcityhobbies.com

Today’s racing was some of the best ever club racing days I have seen. EVERYONE had such a great time. Below are the point’s standings as of date – most with 2 drops.

Stock Sedan
1 Chambers, Chuck 742
2 Salerno, Bill 700
3 Palmerine, Tony 692
4 Signorelli, Matt 654
5 Dempster, Frank 630

Matt Signorelli actually is in 2nd place without the points drop! But since Matt has had such a great race attendance, I was able to drop 2. This “could” change next week if he gets a score less than 70 points for the day.

4-Cell Stock NASCAR
1 Mullen, Conor 844
2 Stephens, Allen 752
3 Strobel, Jeff 632
4 Barbarow, Mike 595
5 Daugherty, Jimmy 573

Conor and Allen have clinched their respective positions on December 10th, 2005.

The 1st US PAN CAR CHAMPS race was for the oval portion only. Congratulations to Mike Barbarow for 1st, Randy Ciccone 2nd, and Jimmy Daugherty 3rd. Randy was the TQ. These guys will be inaugurated into the National Database with the USPCC. Other classes may as well if they qualify.

Stadium Truck
1 Charmello, Chris 868
2 Palmerine, Tony 787
3 Strobel, Jeff 689
4 Walbrown, Rob 658
5 Rooney, Michael 466

Stadium Truck was a VERY exciting time today. Racing between me (Mike) and Jim Hall was exciting in it’s own!

Hey, I heard someone asked about points... technically we are not running points in this series, but I "hope" to have the next version of our scoring software to calculate this.
From what I understand, we may be able to compile points from a pre determined dates. Not sure when the next rev is, but whenever we get it, we can try to use the points manager.
Thanks!

Who's Ur Daddy

So I hear that that some of the guys that race at Steel City are going to Ohio this weekend to race oval. who's all going.

Mike@StlCity

Mostly Oval guys are heading over.
Too many to list! Look for the guys in the SCH shirts as that should be some of Pittsburgh's best racers!

ARCOR Twinny Twinn Twinn – ARCOR CLASSIC Nationals update

All the SCH Racers are doing well over in Ohio – despite the torrential downpours of rain we have been having today. Allen Stephens came in 2nd in the Twinny Twin Twin 300 lap race! Congratulations Allen! Hopefully the SCH team will be contenders for the A-Main as qualifying starts tomorrow. The guys have reported it was a non-stop day of tweaking and wrenching on their cars – but everyone is happy and having a great time.

Good luck to Jimmy W, JimmyD, Slaz, Conner, Randy, Dave W. Allen, Brian Padovini and Bill Goff!

Todd,
THought you would be at the Toledo show today!? Not much Losi stuff as it is mostly an "air" show I guess. Hope your racing season is going well! See you down the line!
