PwdRacing April Races

[Mr. Slick]

Once again there will be TWO races in a single month.

The normal PwdRacing League points race is on the 15th.

A SPECIAL exhibition race is on the 14th as a part of the Chief Black Dog District Pinewood Derby. This race will be on the 64 foot Challenger track so your cars will have to run a bit longer to get to the finish. The current track record from a WIRL sanctioned race is in the 4.1 second range by Starburst from Warthog Woodcars.

There are about 140 boys who will be racing their cars in the regular races. I plan on taking a break partway through for the "Open Division" races. Your car will be running once in each lane, a total of 6 runs. I don't plan on having the normal "practice" run to train the workers and pick out/fix the cars that have a hard time getting to the finish.

To see the stats for the track check out "2007 Unit Results" from the PwdRacing.com home page.

There will be a fantastic trophy for the winner and recognition items for everyone else -- looks like a couple real nice of patches and certificate will be what the budget has in it.

Rules: www.pwdracing.com/cbd_rules_2007.html

I hope to see lots of you race at both the District Open Division and the normal Points race the next day! -- Two races in a weekend and only one shipping cost!

I am working on getting internet access for the District races so they can be available LIVE!

There will also be a Semi race/show too!

Thanks and hope to see you racing!

hi, can we send two cars and have one run in both races and one run in just the second race? just asking because our cars slow down considerably after a few runs, and not sure if you guys could shake some hob e lube on them after the first days races, if I send some of my lube with the cars.

[Mr. Slick]

Sure can. Just make sure to include a note on which cars should be run in which races and how you would like them to be re-lubed in between Saturday and Sunday.

The races will consist of 7 runs on the 64 foot Challenger Track on Saturday and 6 runs on the 42 foot BestTrack on Sunday.

The rules for the District race on Saturday 4/14 are basically anything allowed at PwdRacing AND semi tractor/trailer combos.

We have a couple cars ready. Can't Wait!

I've got two going to PWDRACING -- a rooke and a pro stocker. Actually, the pro stocker was built for WIRL's rookie division, but I can't wait to see her run, so I'm sending her to PWDRACING first. After Sunday she's on to WIRL to race in the rookie class on the 21st. I'm getting nervous/excited already. Good luck to all. See ya Sunday.

Anyone else sending cars to both PWDRACING and WIRL? Just wondering.

Steve,

I sent The Grump (Hot Rod 66) & Grumpy's Toy II (Pro Stock) to PWD, and I sent Ashlee's Thanks (Modified) & Grumpy's Toy III (Pro Stock) to WIRL.

This way I get 2 Days of entertainment.

I may also send my WIRL cars to the North Coast Open, and have 3 days of entertainment this month.

You really had your cars flying last month. Good luck again this month.

Hey Phil:

So, you and I will have cars at both races this month. We've got to stop meeting like this -- people will talk. But seriously, I have high hopes for "Bad Habit II" my PWDRACING Rookie entry. She's run twice before and done pretty well. The car I'm sending to WIRL, "Tabasco," is making a racing debut. She's never even been down a test track, so I have no idea what to expect. The alignment didn't come out like I wanted -- I wanted it to track straight, but ended up with more of a rail rider (by accident), but otherwise I'm pretty happy with the way she turned out. Of course, if you talk to me when the races are done I may be ready to use her for kindling.

How ever they perform it'll be great fun. Best of luck to Team Slkrnsnt, and the other racers as well. See you there.

Pump up the Grump!

Due to our district race coinciding with the WIRL April date, I'm only sending in one stocker this month.

Maybe I'll send in a very "special" entry depending on my mood.

For you racers who haven't checked out PWDRACING, your missing out on the fun !! Take some time to check out the web-site, videos, forum, photos and fun. Live races each month with a chat room to talk to the "competition". Track records have been broke each month and the car count has continued to climb. The race day schedule was even changed so the dates don't conflict with WIRLs. Check it out, you just might like it !!!
