Notes - Class B Discontinued

I decided to cancel the rest of the season for the Class B Carrera cars. I just couldn't bring myself to run them with enjoyment. At this point I'd rather run them without magnets than to have them in just to be able to compete. So it's over for the Audis. The R18 won on points, but the Safety Car was the only one of the two to win a race.

I kinda feel guilty about stopping racing the Carrera cars, since I raced the wheels off them prior to getting the Slot.it cars, and although the two Carreras weren't very well matched, they were still fun to run.
Instead of tossing them or something, I'm going to make one of them a project and see if I can trim large chunks of weight off it. It'll either work or it won't, but at twice the weight of a Slot.it car, they're gonna have to diet if they want to compete.

Once this series is over, I'll be moving into the new house, so there probably won't be many posts for awhile. As things progress with the attic track, I'll post updates on here as well as any races I may run. Until then I'll probably do some photography if I can't set up a layout somewhere.

Big race tomorrow, and could spell the end for the Gulf car's chances of winning the championship. The Alfa would have to basically shut down completely in order for the Gulf car to win, and I really don't think that's gonna happen. Too bad, since the Gulf car is running better than it has for a long time.
