Default Greater Vancouver Slot Car Club

After 14 years of racing, we figured it was time for a club name.
We race at my place every Friday night, and at 4 different locations (so far) every Monday night.

We run 8 week series and only count the best 6, the winner gets congratulated.

Our rules are: NO aftermarket chassis, NO liquids of any kind on tires or track, NO lexan bodies and tires must be covered.

We have a "gentleman's rule", which means we try to race cars that are compatible with other cars in that race. We like close, fun racing.
Each night we run one round with one type of car, and a second round of IROC .

This is our Friday night track...



...and these are our Monday night tracks...

Perry in New Westminster...





...Don in North Vancouver...





...Roger in Coquitlam...





...and my track in Burnaby.

We'll add more pictures when other tracks start hosting races.
