The Oval "Fair Track" Saw Some Fast Action...
 
     After pulling some teeth, Dave finally got his
   wish to race the modified T-Jets on the high
    banked 6-lane fair track oval.
     So far we had 2 races on the oval.
   The first race victor was John Sell with not
   much challenge. Dave made the feature but
   ended up 5th with a bent axle.
   Jeremy Schmidt won the 2nd oval race.
   Dave was up by 4 going into the inside lane.
   Then made a rookie error, flooded slick 7 to
   the motor brushes, green light, crash 1st turn!
   After several crashes because the car was to
   fast, heat #4 saw Dave go to the back, tried to
   make up laps. Dave crashing in heat 5 saw his
   pickup shoe and spring being put on by a kind
   marshall - hurry up!  Never mind, Dave sees
   his mean green go up in smoke in the last heat.
   To much voodoo on pancake arms not good...
   Congratulations Jeremy on the win, that was
   some fun racing.  Enjoy the pics below.

   DVD, send us $15.00.  You'll be glad you did.
  Oval Race #2 A group, looks like marshal your
    own car, let the crashing begin. This was the
    perfect track for these high performance T-Jets.
  Jeremy Schmidt white shirt won this contest.
We voted on Johnny Lightning cut down bodies.
     American Muscle cars including the camaro,
   Corvette Sport, and all Aurora Muscle bodies.
      Open motor, gearing, wheels, slip on tires.  
  We did something different on the groupings.
    Top QT raced with Low QT and so forth....
    So that made for big grins on the pros that
    missed the flying rookies, and no track calls ! 
      In this pic, I can't describe the words.
            A Marshal diving for a car?!
