After 13 years of work, Greenbrier's Drag Strip is fully operational and ready for competition. The final addition was Trackmate's DP2000 system. I did have to build my own tree (TM's tree was just WAY over scale for me) but everything worked out great. Now just have to set some operating details... classes, race schedules, rules, etc... any suggestions? Full updated info & photos on Greenbrier can be seen at slotcar64.freeyellow.com/drag.html

Full updated info & photos on Greenbrier can be seen at slotcar64.freeyellow.com/drag.htmlBeing that parts for the pancake platform are getting harder and harder to find and a lot of people are intimadated with the endless tuning of the little terrors, I would like to see an introduction to a number of inline classes. Stock, Super Stock, Pro Stock even a Die Cast body class. I know Nitroslots is based on pancakes but why not add more of a varity? Could grow the membership base. Some of you road race people know how consistent the newer inline cars are right out of the box. It has been mentioned a few times on this forum the poor quality control of the pancakes that causes such a variance in performance. Any way thats me thoughts.

They are not sanctioned NTRA classes. They are sponsored by the NTRA and are inline races. Did you race the bracket race? I don't remember. That is what you asked about. The bracket race was a very successful inline race. I feel 99.9% sure it will be a NTRA sanctioned event next year. Ninjatek put a lot of work into the software we used for that race. Oh yea I almost forgot, we had 4 or 5 racers adapt inline motors to the 4Gear chassis in the F.E.D. Unlimited class. A very creative class that I am 99.9% sure will be approve. This class has been crazy successful wide open and fun. The NTRA racers are coming up with some wild stuff not always real fast but hey it is all about having some fun in this class. You should race it nosubfor3
