2012: Stock Car Racing America, Race 1

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!
