[JohnnySlots]

So we're running both Carrera and Scaley on the same day? Cool!

After testing all morning I got a 6.571 out of the RHH Audi RS5 on White! I really think the trick to this class is a FULLY broken in motor, and Fully broken in (flat face) tires.

Raceday is one week away Gents. We will be testing Friday night and Saturday afternoon next weekend with track direction changes every hour or so.

If you want to Win you're gonna have to test and tune Gents. I hope to see everyone out Friday night for some valuable track time before the big event.

To heck with waiting until 2018. This should be a quarterly event. Let's have a summer solstice race!

Lots of fun Ron, great day. With a little luck my Carrera's will be better than mid-pack next time.

What can I say?.........my Audi RS5 was on fire. Well prepped and tested she was bound to be a winner.

Gabriel did not at any point let up though. A couple too many crashes or else it would have been a lot closer. A fine drive Gabe.

Dave rounding out the podium in a tremendous result considering he developed a new car. Both Gabe and I ran last years rig.......

Top to bottom the grid was the most impressive one I have seen at our facility so far. I can say without a doubt that fun was had by all and I hope we see everyone back out when we run the Nationals again.

Thanks to everyone that came out. I think I remembered everyones rides.....please chime in if I got it wrong.

Hopefully I can get the Scaley Nats up after dinner........

Well Done Gabriel! He put over 2 laps on last years total and smashed the lap time record!!! What a Drive!

Glen blew the dust of his antique Corvette and ended up in second place!!! A amazing result given how little effort he put into it.

John Basset rounded out the podium with a much better result than last year. Well done Johnny!

Although turnout was down slightly from last year the racing was as fierce as ever. Thanks to everyone that came out.

The Scalextric Canadian Nationals are about 3 weeks away. Sunday March 18, 2018. Mark the date, this is the biggest race we throw all year. Don't miss it!

See you all next weekend for the 1/24th Scale Street Car Nats. The VW bus is ready to go!
