Sky Racing is having his Derby tomorrow. I am hoping that he does well. He wants to win the overall title for the first time. He has won his division before, but has always done poorly at the overall title. I am of course hoping to win the adult class again. I guess we will find out how much I have learned this year compaired to other people. Sky's car is about .25 faster then last years car. My car is about .22 faster then last years car. That is of course over my 35 ft track, we will have to see how they do on a 42 footer.
I will post tomorrow on how they did and pictures of some of the cars and races.

Good luck to both of you! I can not wait to hear the results. Sounds like ya'll have done a lot of hard work on your cars, so now it is time to just sit back and enjoy the races!!! I know that it is hard not to be nervous (I think that my stomache will be queasy when my son races in his Derby), but you all have done the best that you can do-- it is time to have fun! I hope that ya'll come home with some new trophies!!!

Well the time has come and passed. The big race was this morning and all our hard work was put to the test. Sky Racing went undefeated within the Weblo division and then went on to the finals. There were three kids that went undefeated in the Weblos but it was decided by time. Sky Racing had the lowest times. I do not have the times, but I believe his lowest time was a 2.563 on the track. The track is a 35ft best track that is not been kept in the best condition. It was close a few times as the boy that finished second had his car tuned by me too. Sky came to the finals and again went undefeated. His car stayed very consistant all day and raced very well. The boy that finished second in Weblos as finished second overall. Both Sky and the other boy were very happy with their cars. The top three boy were Weblos. The adult race came and it was a tight one. I went undefeated and my wife went undefeated. It again came down to time. I came out on top. I figured I would as I tuned both cars. My car was running about .250 faster then the rest of the field. I had someone say to me they were happy that we did not have a sibling entered in the sibling race. I think next year I will have my nephew come race. I hope you enjoy the pictures. I have enjoyed this journey to get to this point. There are a lot of people I want to thank for their help. Lucky, DocB, Swampfox, Mr. Reed (I do not know your nickname), DerbyDoc, and I am sure I am missing someone. Without all your help this would have never been possible. I have learned so much and Sky has too. I am now looking forward to racing in the league. I hope that we can now compete well there. Evolution Sky getting it all lined up! Sky getting his awards Sky and Evolution with hardware New hardware at home

I wish we had a district race, but they do not have one here. I feel that the kids could have a great time with this, but the leaders do not want it. I have asked several times and gone to the district head about it. I guess we will race with the league and be happy we have that.
