Just had a "Trackmate" system installed using a laptop. I don't understand it all yet but it appears to run races, time your laps and more cool stuff.
Reliving my yute? Yeah kinda ![]()

And the same to you sir
![]() Here's a pair of 55's that are absolute little rockets around the banked turn. So far on the trackmate the 55's are averaging 2.4 seconds around the approx. 65 ft track. I wanna go below 2.0! However the color of the cars will have to change as they are going so damn fast that my eyes can't see them against the black track.The pic below is taken on a different track, mine is black as shown in previous pics. At roughly 2 seconds they are a blur to my old eyes!

These cars are so fast, one of them flew clear across the garage and hit the door about 12 feet away! That's fast man!

Here's another 55 that was custom mounted to a chassis that is just too damn fast for a hard body car as when this one goes off the rails it'll fly 20+ feet and possibly crack the body. So I'm mounting it to a new Lexan 55 Chevy and putting something just a little slower on this one..........eventually
