Heat 3B is up now. You may enter the room if assigned.

Just a heads up to everyone. There will be a short break after the last heat race. Just long enough for me to total the results and post the main event lineups. We have 25 drivers racing tonight so we will go with 9 in the C main with 4 transferring to the B. There will be 8 + the transfers in the B with 4 moving on to the A to join 8 other racers.

Had fun, Thank you JLBowler for hosting and taking the time to post in the forum whenever each group had to come into the room. The charger was hard to drive on the super speedway.

 

[Severn]

Lot's of fun @JLBowler
My hands are gonna be killing me tomorrow from gripping my wheel so tight!

 

[USERID_77a23]

Can't wait for the next...

 

[CoachMK21]

Thanks @JLBowler for putting all this together. It was a lot of fun for sure! Although it was kinda rough going from the C Main to B Main to the A Main. A lot of laps in a short amount of time. And now that it's 12:45 am on the east coast, it's time for some sleep.

 

[JLBowler]

Thanks to everyone for coming out. I will be posting results tomorrow. I may even try and get some pictures of the action posted as well.

 

[fzappa]

Thanks for putting this together, Bowler Had a great time. It was tough waiting in between the other races but was nice just to have to run the main event. Good combo, also. Kudos for those that raced in the C main event that made it to the Main event race. It was nice racing with everyone again👍

 

[GGGMotorsport]

Congrats to fzappa on the win tonight although you missed all the fun in the A Main!

I was in the A main event. I had fun racing alone

 

[Rednose58]

Great evening. The Pack (positions 2-6) - what a race, and you kept a good pace too.

 

[GGGMotorsport]

I was in the A main event. I had fun racing alone

Yes I know but you were all alone and missed the battle behind you

 

[socalnatv]

Great job Bowler...

That was more fun than I expected. Got to race with people I never raced with before and some old friends I haven't raced with in a long time. ( too long )

Can't wait until next time.

 

[Handlebar]

Wish I could have made it. Hopefully next time!

 

[MajorBlixem]

What a great night of racing! Clean hard racing at it's best. Kudos to all drivers and @JLBowler for running such a succesful event.

What a bummer with my C Main race. I was nursing my tires right out of the gate so I fell somewhat behind. However at 9/15 laps my tires were still 10/10 and I put the hammer down. With the rate I was catching up I knew I had a chance. Lap 14/15 turn 2... lining the 2 guys in front of me up for a pass.... rest is history...spectacular spinout ended my challenge.... even though it ended in disappointment for me I still enjoyed the race. It's like one of your fishing stories...the big one that got away....

 

[chatva]

Had brain farts, couldn't figure it out so I just stayed out of the way.
Should have started earlier to read what to do!

 

[JLBowler]

Results from last night will be posted in one of the first couple of posts this evening sometime.

Be prepared for Labor Day weekend (August 31) for the next SNAIL Oval Racing event. The goal will be to make it run a little shorter and possibly even do a double header to allow for some west coast guys to jump in.

 

[AJKVail]

Thanks @JLBowler and congrats to Crash for the win!
Lights are on but no one is home! Any chance of getting the final results posted?

That giant pain in the hind parts known as real life has been cutting into my leisure time lately. Posting the results are on my to do list but the wife keeps putting stuff on the list in front of it telling me it has to be done by this weekend so we can have 75 or so people at the house for my daughter's graduation party (I didn't get a party that big when I graduated from 8th grade but whatever makes the wife and kid happy is what I will do).

With that being said, I will find a few minutes today to at least get the results up. I promise no pictures so if anyone wants to help out with some photographic evidence of the night, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks @JLBowler! No worries, family first! Congrats on your daughters graduation!

My son is "graduating" from 8th grade as well. Guess how big his party is? 0. Maybe we'd be pressured more into doing one if the school did a graduation ceremony, but as it's only 8th grade...who really cares, right?

Her school does a graduation ceremony in the high school's stadium just like you get in high school. I guess it goes to living in a largely agricultural community. It wasn't that many years ago when kids around here would graduate 8th grade and go to work on the farms. My mother-in-law and all of her sisters never did graduate from high school and they are in their late 50's to mid 60's. Just a generation later, my wife has a masters in education technology. It all falls back to tradition I guess and I've never been one to shy away from a reason to have a party. I went today and ordered another keg for the occasion. I will now have Sierra Nevada and Shock Top on tap.

 

[Handlebar]

You are a good man, @JLBowler - enjoy the grad party.

I have some pics I took of the Main Event. Hopefully I remember how to upload them to the thread.
