Going to the track tomorrow to get some practice in and check out modifications to my new Nascar (the Gonzo /Kale T Bird). Anyone up for joining me? Advice gratefully accepted.

Michael, I will be at BPR tomorrow around 1 pm. I can help check out your cars and also get in some practice with my cars as well. Gonzo will also try to be there as well.

Practice on Sunday was good. Michael, Gonzo and myself took some laps with many of our cars. Hector has added the side wall vinyl protection to the flat and King tracks. This protection will help cushion our cars when we crash or do wall blasts. I saw Michael's NASCAR take some good laps. Gonzo will be doing some minor adjustments to this car before our next monthly race on the 15th. I tried out my Corvette C5R with "lights". The headlights work great, but the tail lights need to be brighter. I wanted to try out the light system to find out if they work or not. Maybe we can use lights in an enduro next year? Gonzo showed me how he makes the front portion of his chassis. I took photos of the process and will post them online in the "Scratchbuilding" forum here. Gonzo showed his sprint car for the Kingleman track. It's a very fast car, maybe too fast as it might scare away the competition! Gonzo modified his '51 Chevy chassis. He added more weight to the center portion of the chassis. This car is the fastest '46-'56 car I've seen so far. Hector just might set a new total lap record with this car, keep an eye on this one.
