    Leave it to C19 to finally get me to buy my own tire truer! It should be here Tuesday and then I can begin getting my car ready for the events, assuming my power supply is able to do the job (it may not have the amps…but we’ll see. Some reports online suggest it will be okay and I won’t need to upgrade).

    Not sure if I’ll make the next race entry, but I’m going to give it a shot. The ‘ol ThunderSlot has been packed away since last year’s events, but unlike my Slot.it stuff which I tend to tear down and reuse parts across models, the T-slot is its own creature, so it should be in good shape except for the tires, which I ran to the last lap of use in the previous season.

    I envy Marty’s home track now. If I only had the space…<<sigh>>

    Cheers!
