Here is a new car from Warthog Woodcars for the August race.  The paint job didn't turn out very well on it. I didn't have time to try and repaint it. I am trying some new alignment techniques this month. If they work the cars should be fast - if not well then....... |

Thanks Guys! Looks like it will be another competative month. Sounds like a number of new Modifieds being entered. I bet the top eight will all be under 18.2 secs and if the track permits even a couple cars breaking the 3 sec barrier.
Hey Wheeler welcome to the races!!! what is the name of the new car for this month? - so we know what to look for.
Good Luck Everybody!!!

Hey WartHog, I got some Buckeye helmet stickers left from when I did Buckeye Bullet. Want me to send you one? The car looks fast. I have to admit it looks almost like one I have drawn up but not cut out yet. I told Parrish last month how similar Odin looked to the new car I had drawn up. Am planning on having it done for next live race. Just waiting until this month to see how Buckeye Bullet does so I can decide on weight placement. Should be another average month for the Barga Gang.
Mr. Wheeler,
I did not realize you were so fond of Frogs. Congrats on your great showing straight out of the gate last month. See you next month!

Well, I can't say as that I am a Buckeye fan. I should probably stick to the home town teams (Gophers and Vikings). The Vikings have had several great Ohio players in the past - Chris Carter and Robert Smith come to mind (please correct me if I am wrong). Besides, the only place to put a sticker would be on the back and that would cover up the "W" I put on there. Thanks for the offer though.
I originally planned to have the rear cap over the weight section a little thinner so that you could see the nice shiny tungsten cylinders inside. I didn't measure the thickness quite right for the cap so I ended up punting that idea.
We'll all have to watch out for the poison darts being shot around the track this weekend. For those who don't know, Sleipnir is Odin's eight legged horse who can run on ground or through the air - -he will have to use all his tricks to avoid being darted!!

Thanks A1, Your cars are awesome lookin'.. love the paint jobs and shapes. If all goes as planned Sleipnir should be faster than Odin was last month. However, with the adjustments made to Odin - Odin should still be the fastest of my cars this month. I can't wait to see how your SS car does  Good Luck!! |
