Another Great Race Night!
Thanks to everyone who attended Saturday's club race.  Racing was tight as usual, but there are some drivers in the middle-pack range that are over driving a bit.  You probably know who you are and you will go faster if you rein it in slightly.

It was great to see Nick K and Calvin G back on the track after some time off!  Also, shout out to Carter H for an awesome performance in qualifying this week!

Next Race is Saturday Mar 12th, **6PM Start
The next race is Saturday Mar 12th at 6PM.  We'll be running practice, two rounds of qualifiers, and mains.

Schedule
There are two races remaining: Mar 12th 6:00pm and Mar 26th 4:00pm.  We have asked for two additional dates in April but Eagle Ridge has not finalized their April schedule yet.

Fun Race Night!
Thanks to everyone who attended Saturday's club race.  We saw great racing with lots of really clean runs across the board.  There were a couple of notable on-track passes that stood out:

Avery B made an aggressive but legit muscle pass on Craig in the TC A-Main which was fun to watch.  Unfortunately he gave it right back later in the lap!

Adam B dug into his archive of racing tricks and got Dan P all crossed up enough to make a clean pass on the outside.  Unorthodox, but it worked!

Teardown was done in record time, 23 minutes.  That is very impressive to completely pack away a full size four roll track.

Next Race is Saturday Mar 26 ** 4:00PM Start **
The next race is Saturday Mar 26th at our original start time of 4:00PM.  We'll be running the full program with practice, three qualifiers, and mains.  This * might * be our final indoor race of the season.  We have asked for two additional dates in April but Eagle Ridge has not finalized their April schedule yet.

Fun Race Night!
Thanks to everyone who attended last Saturday's club race.  We saw some good racing and some strong performances.  Ed M and Alex M both ran really well after being away for a couple months, and Mateo B took his carpet racing game to a new level with some fantastic driving!  Phil C continued his quest back to peak performance with a strong 3rd place finish in TC - keep it up!  Dalyn S was the man to beat in 12th Scale, and Carter H turned in another excellent performance in the main!

Track Teardown
Two weeks removed from a record 23 minute teardown, we went backward this week.  We saw lots of people hanging out in the pits and not contributing.  All racers must assist in track teardown unless you work early Sunday morning and have an arrangement with the club.

Next Race is Saturday, April 9
Doors open at 4:00PM.

Close Racing!
Thanks to everyone who attended last Saturday's club race.  We saw some really tight qualifying in TC, with several drivers qualifying within a couple seconds of each other!  Craig R was a little too fast for everyone else though, and he secured the TQ and win.  In 12th Scale, Brian A took TQ honors with a flawless run in the second round which held up.  Sean B took his program to a new level with a strong B-Main victory securing a bump to the A-Main.

Track teardown returned to its winning ways with a quick and efficient effort, including some A-caliber carpet rolling from Ed M and Brian A.

Last race of the season is Saturday, April 23
Doors open at 4:00PM.

Carpet Season is in the Books
Thanks to everyone who attended last Saturday's club race.  We saw some extremely tight qualifying in both TC and 12th Scale.  Mr. Consistency Glenn A narrowly took TQ honors in TC Stock and he followed it up with a tone-to-tone victory in the main, even with Brian A on his rear bumper for much of the main.  Nick K managed to TQ 12th Stock which was nice to see, but Brian A took the win in the main after both Nick and Tom Y ran into a little trouble.  All three cars finished within a two second window!

This marks the end of our 2021/2022 indoor carpet racing season.  Thanks to all racers that participated this season!  See you all on the asphalt for summer racing, starting on Sunday May 29th.
