One of the first non-baseball tabletop sports games that I picked up was Red White & Blue Racin’ from PLAAY Games. It’s been one of the games I’ve consistently played for 10 years.
The first full season I played was the homebrewed 2012 Starbucks Cup, which took me a couple of years to finish, as did the 1979 NASCAR Winston Cup replay and the Stock Car America (SCRAM) 2016 Trucks Series (Pepsi Cup).
I’ve since begun 3 more series: 1960 SCRAM, 1984 NASCAR, and 2016 SCRAM. I’m about 15 races into the 2016 SCRAM season, but I’ve decided to put all three on hold.
I picked up the 2012 SCRAM season shortly after I picked up the original game. Over the years I had picked up that previous year’s NASCAR season, until Jeff Gordon retired in 2015. I then began to collect the SCRAM seasons starting with 2016. I’ve been running the 2016 on and off for the past 6 years.
During this year’s PLAAY holiday sale, they offered the SCRAM Anthology, all seasons from 2012-2022. I passed on ordering it since I had all the seasons except for 2013-2015. I contacted Keith Avallone at PLAAY Games about ordering just those seasons, and he said there was no problem doing that, so I did.
I then decided to start fresh and begin the SCRAM Anthology with the 2012 season. Here’s hoping I can finish an entire season (or two?) within a calendar year!
