My nephew lives in Carson City, I told him to check it out!
Hello drag folk. I came across some rims intended for drag racing, size .500 diameter and .400 wide. Any suggestions for appropriate tires, size and brands?
Thanks in advance!
Okay boys and girls, sometimes my mind goes to weird places when it comes to rules. Take hollow axles, for example. They are illegal in many forms of racing, but if you fill them in they are no...
I haven't raced USRA in a couple of decades. Why is the group 7 car being weighed? Just for curiosity or are there restrictions?
I may actually have something. If you don't hear back from me in a day or two please send me a reminder.
The outpouring on Facebook has been amazing, Mark touched the lives of thousands of people, not just the slotcar world.

Generally speaking, the race director has the option of using common sense as a replacement for written rules. Having a 4 person consi with 4 moveups is absurd. Logic says either have a 9 person...
I never was a slot drag racer, so excuse me if this sounds stupid. Is there any reason a 360 degree loop could not be used to stop the cars? Seems like it would take up a lot less floor space.
It's deja vu all over again :)
Nice exposure, always a good thing!

I actually have some listed on Ebay right now :)
The Weather Channel makes it sound like you guys are under 3 feet of water. How is it going?
If you see him again tell him I said hello!
I was fortunate enough to work with Paul on the magazine for a few years. I used a variety of pen names including Ben Trim, Guy Flagg, Ben Dover, Ilene Dover, Kornover Marshal and the given names of...
As always, thanks for your helpful, informative and friendly post.
Thanks or the constructive comment. I assume nothing, I only offer what I have. Having no other medium to ask for help regarding large photos, I used what was available. I also have no interest in...

Not sure if this link will work, but I posted pics of a bunch of stuff I acquired at an auction on...
The primary responsibility of a corner marshal is to correct driver's mistakes. All other responsibilities should be explained, and demonstrated if necessary, by the race director.
My guess would be the shop that used to be in West Haven, run by Jay Maturo, but I can't remember the name of the shop.
Take a 2-3 month break, put everything away and out of sight. When you come back the thrill may have returned. If not, donate your stuff to someone that can use it (or a fire sale on eBay) and move...
Aubin 3 sixteen is in reference to Austin 3:16, the catch phrase used by professional wrestler Steve Austin. When I signed up at OWH there was a ver "interesting" poster who went by Local Racer, he...
You can retard the timing on the brush hoods having the affect of advancing the timing on the arm. It will take longer to break in the brushes after you do this.
I think I race directed that event LOL. I know I did the Wing Nats at Jerry's that year. Was it really almost 15 years ago?
Been very distracted lately, haven't had much chance to peek in here. Why do I keep expecting Bill Murray to do a feature on Punxatawny Phil?
Advertising gets new people in the door, that's a good thing.
Making sure they have fun is what ensures they will return. No different than bowling, laser tag or Chuckie Cheese.
