    Penalties for obstructionist DNFs 🤔 I can say I've seen one host actually do just that, however the format was 6 car groups racing in six laps (Pottybig Race League) and the rule there was two such "demerits" ejected the offending racer from further competition.
    Unfortunate as these cases can be, the race is the race and I feel everyone involved grasps the effects that chaos wields in every event.
    Fantastic how viewer input is _already_ making headway into the show!! 🥳 Yay, exhibition races among groups of the same casting!! Thanks for listening to us, GTR!
    How awesome is it that this early we see a driver grab the extra 2 points for a train derailment. Too bad Billy had to cut playtime short 🤣
    Couldn't ask for a better experience on this Sunday morning 💯😎🏁

      Hey Chris, Racing format, is one of those things I consider when entering an event. There are so many different styles of events, just have to adjust ones thing for every event, or dont enter, and also hopefully they run the event as advertised. too.

    A very tough showing for kaboom, that gravedigger was certainly fast but just did not have the balance when going on the inside. You could even say it went KABOOM. Once again this goes to show early showings of speed in the time trials does not indicate the direction a race will go.

    What a great installment for a Sunday morning! Excellent and exciting racing with some passes in unexpected places that showed where some opportunities are on this track. Great builds. And we got to see Billy get de-railed! Photography, lighting, and editing all great, and out hosts are on point. Fantastic stuff all around! Oh, and let's not forget the photo bomb of the old running shoes that I would have missed if you didn't point it out. This is one of those episodes that can hook someone on diecast racing and build subscribers. What's not to love?!

Tom is into diecast drag racing and will host those types of tournaments, but his boy sort of lost interest until he saw my dunes track. It's brand new. Everyone is learning what works and what doesn't. In addition, Deuce will be back for an exhibition truck race with other similar builds. Cheers to my fellow Kansan.

    This is racing and what I call - Racers Luck. You can watch NASCAR - F1 - Rally all day and see that Racers Luck is in play. The best prepared cars/teams often finish on the podium but a wreck or a blown engine or a blown tire takes you out of the race as does someone wrecking in front of you. That’s the real world. As to penalties that’s a tough call - maybe 2 consecutive wrecks where you obstruct someone knocks you out for a lap.
    Great job on the track - the video - the whole shebang was awesome.
