Racing Happened, but not THE Race. Here's why

Yesterday was interesting. I started by running some of the newer cars, as I hadn't had much opportunity to get them on the track yet. As I was running, there were things that would bug me enough to need to work on them. As those things mounted, I realized that I wasn't at the place I wanted to be just yet. If I were to race the cars as-is now, there would probably be close to 20 that weren't in a place that I would prefer they'd be. It wouldn't really be fair to the newer cars to have them start when they weren't ready.

There wasn't much of a chance to race after seeing the stack of cars I needed to tend to. I suppose I could have started from the other cars, but then I'd need to run these ones sooner or later. 

I have noticed a little bit of a trend, and that is that every Thunderslot car I own seems to be improving rather than aging. They need little to no encouragement or extra setup. They just kick ass.

I have a little bit of everything to finish up before I'm ready for racing: A few NSRs, a Revoslot, a Slot.it, a Policar, a couple or three Thunderslots. I'll get those up and running shortly. 

I had a modified version of the layout I started with, but don't have any specs on it yet. I might modify it a little more, but I have to most a few things in the living room first. 

Okay, that's it for now.
