TLOR at the Autodrome

[ferrari1950]

Welcome back to the 'drome. This is the third proxy hosted here in quick succession and its been busy with weather delays not helping much. I'm Krisp O'kindawacky and we shall give you the results as they come in. Sir Nige is around as well as Benzo and an assortment of others.

Quallifying went well and the track seemed suited to the home town boys, however Chris Walker's cars are still the class of the field. One of our "mechanics" is adjusting Chris' driver in the small bore category for safety reasons.


The big bangers line up as follows.

Chris 7.825
Retro 7.959
Ferrari1950 8.012
Greenman 8.206
Audi1 8.321
Mitch 8.476
Brumos 8.781



And the small bore bullets lined up as follows.

Chris 8.241(WOW)
Ferrari1950 8.679
Kidvoltage 8.839
Old23 9.133
Reek 9.240
Mrossmassler 9.439
Mitch 9.532
Retro 9.550
Greenman 9.566

Great news - and I see the Porsche is still upright and on all fours!

Go li'l Porsche, go!

[mrossmassler]

the Autodrome rocks....

...I never thought to ask before, but - what tires does the track owner recommend for these cars on this track?

Also it appears my race number decal has fallen off the hood (#418 Maserati) - or did I actually not put it on?

....Alzheimer's, I suppose.

Wow, the #44 is back where it has been and what happened to the #45? Perhaps the tires need a scuff to get rid of that silicone residue, eh?

Have fun with them.

…news is coming your way from high atop the control tower here at what we lovingly refer to as the 'drome…I'm Krisp O'kindawacky reporting…


…the TLOR Festival continued along with a huge variety of entertainment…


…some of the young drivers tried to call home and after all this is a 50's event so no cell phones…lead to a crowding issue at the pay phone….no one remembered how to dial a rotary phone….


…small issues continued as the famous Bejewled Turtle of the Royal Princes Fridgedaires of Canada climbed up the Taco emporium looking for its favourite food, taco hagus…as is the tradition the entire battalion must follow respectfully along, careful to always follow behind the turtle… historically this infact may have lead to the saving of many lives as when the Princess F's charged into battle by the time they arrived behind the rampaging turtle the fight was over most of the time….


…but on to the action…Stewart's beautiful MG bouncing of a guard rail and startling the deer and a ranger…unfortunately for old23 too common a sight….Stewart is resting today sedated but finally calm…


..chart tells the story…Chris' entries the class of the field…the home duo of 69's were fortunate but after all built and tested at the 'drone, home turf felt good..but only briefly as cars are ready to move along to the next venue….




…congrats to all and the poduimites especially!…Krisp o'kindawacky signing off…

Sir Nige comments?….."hhhhrrrummmph!"

Good day, eh!

[Brumos RSR]

Great pictures and thank you for the great run. Congratulations to the Podiumites.

Amazing run for the Porsche. Thanks for the runs and a special thanks to whoever had the burning trigger finger in Lane 2.

It's an honor to be on the same podium with Chris.

On to the next one!

[mrossmassler]

Something other-worldly going on at the Autodrome....

....for one, I got my highest finish of the season. Always got to like that.

But the crowd. The spectators and even promoters, entertainers -- is it possible that the attendance of miniature figures is greater at the Autodrome than at any other 1/32 event in the world? And the different poses. Cameramen, singers, people from all walks of frozen plastic life. And the question I have is:

Where the #$%^ do they all come from? Do they procreate in the off-season? Is there a spaceship that brings them? Why do we see them at the Autodrome and - mysterious - almost nowhere else???

Strange indeed!

Thanks Marek!

And congratulations again to all those on the podiums thoughout the event, I will keep trying to build faster & cuter cars hoping to be next to these beauties at the end of one of these races next year.
(the cars, too, not just the podium girls.....)
