Hello Ramesh,

Yes, I had a relaxing holiday weekend and as you said, this new Mercedes AMG DTM IROC class was very enjoyable. I also noticed how all persons involved had a very exciting time racing those 6 Mercedes cars ... It's was very good of you setting up these 6 slotcars of yours for all to partake in an IROC racing competition. Now as thrilling as the racing was, if it wasn't for your first-rate commentating - the event wouldn't have been so action packed. It is another great talent you have with slotcar racing commentary.

Now, although I just manage to make it (lane 6) into the finals and cars were doing average 3.3 sec. lap times on (approx.) 42' TRL circuit ... This analogue racing was very fast and difficult to try and keep up with - especially with those 5 other regular racing (Shaun, Marlon, Kyle, Jon & Junior) guys. Nonetheless a thrilling night of 132 racing was had

I have to also mention the method used scoring points at TSCC for a win was very surprising at first but didn't take long to realize how effective it was ... for the person with the fewest amount of points (from their 6 races) being the Winner ..!

Example: with me finishing off in 6th. place at the end of event for my 6 racing positions (6th. + 5th. + 6th. + 5th. + 2nd. + 6th.) equals 30 points.

This was the final results/points I remember noticing on the score sheet for 120 laps per driver.

• 1. Shaun ............ 18 pts.
  2. Marlon ........... 18 pts.
  3. Kyle .............. 19 pts.
  4. Jon ............... 19 pts.
  5. Junior ............ 22 pts.
  6. Luke T ........... 30 pts.

Although, I didn't stay around long enough to findout how Jon pulled of a victory with him starting on pole.

On another note ~ I support your ideas and perception with ...

lets help this sport grow, other clubs should support each other events just by letting others know about the event, its only when you give you get and when you share you have more, these are living principles, you can use this forum to share local slot car up coming events ...

... 132 racing and this is why I try my best to help in what ever way I can with TSCC and of course FRC
