Well, the 2023 BPR Spring Fling Bracket race is in the books. The Las Vegas and Arizona guys made the trip to BPR for this awesome race. There were 172 cars entered in the bracket race and when the dust settled, I had both of my cars in the final round for a winner runner-up finish. A few of us packed up Saturday night after the race was over and headed 150 miles north to Bakersfield for the JDS shootout on Sun. I won the Super Stock shootout and runnered up in the bracket race. It wasn't a bad weekend bringing home a over $1,600 in winnings. Since I was already 150 miles north, I decided to head on up to the cabin for a couple of weeks for some relaxation.

Hot dog!! You're pretty quick for an old dick.
Where's this cabin you go to? Up in the Sierra Mens.? Or some other wild place. Would like to see pictures of your place for relaxation.
Good job winning and getting runner-up. 👍

LOL😃 l call it the cabin but it is actually a small house out in the middle of no where up 395 towards Big Pine. I love hanging out there because it is so quiet and relaxing. Eating and sitting in the jacuzzi is what enjoy doing there. I used to go to an actual cabin up in mammoth but my buddy sold it and bought a vacation home on Lake Havasu so now that is my other getaway. 🤠

Looks like a very relaxing place with everything a man could want to simply sit back and relax. Our home is relatively quiet but right now we are visiting our daughter in Wilmington, NC, and where her home is located here it is amazingly quiet. My Bride and I love to sit on the lanai and read and enjoy the solitude. No traffic sounds, the occasional airplane but rarely, otherwise it is a little bit of paradise in the meddle of a city. Who ever woulda thought? Going back to Florida tomorrow.

My home track Buena Park Raceway just signed up to use Pro Pairings. That will really step their program up to the next level at that track. Pro Pairings is the same system that is used at the million in Indiana. I have been out of town for a couple of weeks, but I plan to be home around the middle of next week, so hopefully they will have learned that system and have all of the bugs worked out by the time I get there. :)

Sorry I haven't had any slot car racing updates, but I'm still up north and haven't raced any. I only planned on being here for a couple of weeks, but over a month and a half later and I'm still here. I have planned on leaving 3 times but decided to stay a little longer each time. So, now I have decided to spend the Memorial Day weekend here and head south next Wednesday. I need to get back to racing before I forget how to pull the trigger. :D

I returned home from my 6-week vacation Wednesday and went straight to Buena Park Raceway for a Wednesday night bracket race. There were 72 cars entered and I won with one of my dragsters and had a semifinal finish with one of my other dragsters. I missed having both cars in the finals due to a .002 red light.
