So how did NPWDRL builders do last year in the pro event(s) for the Mid Am?

Results are here:
http://www.midamericaderby.com/2013-results

I didn't look at other classes, but bearing car finals (6 spots) were all NPWDRL racers:

1. Opa
2. Goat Boy
3. Goat Boy
4. Zeebzob (Also TQ'd the prelims)
5. 5Kids
6. Opa

I was right there in the mix grabbing a top 5 finish. When I arrived here last night I finally got my long awaited trophy from Greg, albeit a little dusty but I'm good with that.

Sorry you guys were talking bearing class by looking at the list.

Is there any kind of schedule as to the order of the race classes, as well as what time each class will begin? While I wish I could have been there, I do have to mow the lawn, so I don't want to miss anything...

The website just says racing begins at 10:15 a.m.. I believe that's central time.

Does anyone have an open scout? Can you keep an eye on Colin Sullivan webelos? We cant watch. I am not sure if they will post results some where today.

 

[ngyoung]

He just ran a 2.98 and got second in the heat against a 2.92 car.

Ugh, that is terrible. I must have done spacers wrong.

Cars are smoking fast this year we are similar to last year and finished 2nd snd 3rd with avg of 2.9370 so far I saw 2 races only ... wonder if we'll make the finals!!

Finally finished 12th with avg of 2.934 this year, marginally better than last years avg of 2.9366 that put us at 3rd place. So the competition got much faster this year!!

We got a long way to go to catch up to 2.918x etc. Good showing by Hogan and JBD!

[resullivan]

[Maglev]

Does anybody have a screenshot or picture of the top 12 finalists for the MA open scouts graphite race results? Please PM me or post it.

[Maglev]

Sons car took 2nd in wolfs and 8th overall, daughters cars took 3rd and 8th in the open class. My car dogged out from last weeks districts but still finished 12th. I'm really proud of my wife's car, she ran a simple wedge with 3 oz of lead as only weight and still ran fastest time of 2.9698. (Ps we won the material for her car in last years mid America) like someone else said, the competition really stepped up their game this year.
