Race 11 of the 2011 FCR Championship at Eddie’s Slot Car World.

Randy Tragni is the 2011 ESCW FCR Champion! After a hard fought season with much competition.

Randy also took a decisive win in this second to the last race of the season against a fierce group of competitors at Eddie’s. The win gave Randy more than enough points than he needed to lock up the championship once and for all.

Tom Joseph came in 2nd in the race to lock up second place in the Championship. 3rd place in the championship is still open.

Six racers rocked and rolled on the track for race 11 of the FCR Championship. What a blast. Starting the race action was a huge pile up coming down the main straight. Tom and Randy tangled. Randy’s car went belly up and over sailed Uncle Gary’s car and into the hole by the batteries. The race was stopped so the competitors could recover from uncontrollable laughter.
As the race progressed the group focused and most of the mayhem subsided.
Randy kept clean and ticked off laps while being hotly pursued by his competitors.
Tom brought on a number of competitive laps in a late attempt to pull the win from Randy, all to no avail!
Randy also did a blistering hot lap (for an FCR car that is) of 5.819 on green and also completed a total of 231 laps. Tom completed a tight 226 laps while Durl took 3rd place and completed 222 laps. All pretty close racing.
Rounding out the field were regulars Sam Rock (using the Tragni Tune Monte Carlo with 219 laps), Wolf Immel (217 laps) and Uncle Gary Hoehn (209 laps).


Thanks to Lisa Immel for running race command while Eddie and Janet Wong turn marshaled.

Way to go, Randy! Congratulations.
Nice to see that Durl hasn't completely lost his touch. Or is he copping a feel of his nutsack - I can't decide which?

Regards,

What's the difference, Steve?

You know that rash will never go away if you keep scratching it, don't you?
Congrats on your podium finish, Mr V.
