Winkster Posted October 21, 2012 Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 Perfect Day for Racing! At least so far. A little chilly when we got to the track, but there are no clouds in the sky and the sun is warming everyone up nicely.Cars are on the track, at least most of them. Several have already spent time in the pits and a few are already getting attention in the paddock.In the lead after the first half hour is the #39 Chump Faces BMW, pursued by the #25 Buck Snort BMW. Buck snort is turning faster times by about 3 seconds a lap, one of two cars that have posted laps faster than 3 minutes. The other is the #38 MR2 Biohazard that led much of yesterday's race before falling out due to a gearbox failure late in the event. #38 is currently in 4th place, with the #49 Slugworks Turbo Honda in third.And before I can finish this note, #25 has taken the lead from #39.

Winkster Posted October 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 There were 53 starters today. The ultrafast Mr2 Biohazard has taken the lead, reeling off laps 8 seconds faster then the closest competition. At the three hour mark, the next five cars are a BMW, Honda, Chrysler and Alfa Romeo.

What was the Brain Nerds car?I hope that Chump will put the car make and model into the timing and scoring system for next year.Like this (from a BMW Club event) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
