This one is in Latvian (?) - but I'm guessing this was by a local TV station...

The videos give a lot of new angles to see the tough downhill section that Greg talked about.

edit: - this video is posted on the "ISRA 2014 -Limbazi" Community page on Facebook
https://www.facebook.com/pages/ISRA-...59?sk=timeline

This Community page is decribed as:
"4 Kiwis (Slot racers from New Zealand) are attending the ISRA 2014 Worlds in October in Limbazi - Latvia, This is a journal of their expedition"

The 4 Kiwis were not listed on the page, but consisted of: Chris Radisich, Gill Andrews, Allan Tucker, & Chris Dillon.

I do not know who filmed the video, since individual credit was not posted.

Here's a video shared on YouTube & Facebook by 2014 ISRA Worlds 1/24 Eurosport Champ Tonda Vojtík III...

TKV competes with children in Limbaži

ISRA 2014 World Championship wasn't only hectic event for me. On the way from lunch I met local children driving slot cars and joined them for little race. #SlotracingSpirit #TKV - Tonda Vojtík III




Great way to warm up for World Championship competition, and also what a great way to remember that we are all still kids at heart and that we do this for FUN! Who knows... maybe a future World Champ among those kids? #SlotracingSpirit #TKV - PK @ OWH

Apparently no lane change cards are required,at the end of the above video guy picks up the car and moves forward

Maybe some credit of the naming of the posters of the videos would be nice

Hi Zip!

I have made every effort to include credit for all photos and videos shared here on OWH Slot Car Talk - and have obtained permission for all photos shared here.

On the Facebook videos, however, since I am unable to embed or share them here, I have simply provided links to view them on Facebook.
Even so, I have still made every effort to give proper credit.

The one you referenced was actually posted by "ISRA 2014 -Limbazi" (as I did note on my link), rather then posted as any specific individual...
so I gave credit as it was posted... since there was no personal credit on the Facebook Community page.

The ISRA 2014 -Limbazi page is actually a bit easy to confuse it by it's name with the "Official" 2014 Limbazi ISRA Worlds page... but the description on the "About" page says:

"4 Kiwis (Slot racers from New Zealand) are attending the ISRA 2014 Worlds in October in Limbazi - Latvia, This is a journal of their expedition"
The "About" page does not even mention the 4 Kiwis by name...
This actually took quite a bit of searching, since most of the photos were not named....
but I pretty much figured out that they are:
Chris Radisich, Gill Andrews, Allan Tucker, and Chris Dillon.

So... I'm assuming one of the above 4 Kiwi racers must have posted it... (but that's only assuming).
I'm also guessing that if they were real concerned about personal credit for the video, they would have given credit on Facebook.

I'm also guessing that they somehow neglected to take you (Zippity) along on this trip as the 5th Kiwi...
so I guess you know how Pete Best must have felt by being the "5th Beatle" LOL

Anyway - I had absolutely NO intention of neglecting to give credit for the video link - but I simply posted the credit for the link exactly as given on Facebook!
(and since I had no idea which one of them was doing the posting on the ISRA Worlds community page)
Since the link goes right to their Facebook page - I did not see the harm in doing so, and I hope that none of them have a problem with how I did it (besides you).

That is something that I am actually VERY picky about... and I hope you notice that I have given credit for all photos I shared here.

OK???

Bill,

Actually, we were monitoring exactly for that, but this one was either missed, or more likely actually, he put the car back where it belonged for the start of the heat. (There were 2 deputy stewards watching this in the 1/24 ES semis and main.)
