Over a year later, and we’re back!
The Cross Tech 500 from the Northern Lights Motordome.
Minor incident at the end of an otherwise uneventful race.
Next up: the GLA 400 from the Great Lakes International Raceway.
Stay tuned!
2016: SCRAM Race #2
March 6, 2016: The Ice Brew 600 @ the Northern Lights Motordome, Northern USA:
Race winner: Austin Bigler, #77 Shinra Electric Chevy
After 2 races (and a long gap between those two races), Geoff Daly, Jr. leads the series by a point over Tom Rossi.
Both Bigler and Rossi started deep in the field (37th and 38th) and made their way to the front to finish 1st and 2nd, respectively.
Next up: the Gulf Oil 500 @ the Gulf Coast Motor Speedway, US Gulf Coast.
Stay tuned!

Racing
I may not watch NASCAR anymore, but that doesn’t mean my interest in racing stopped.
I’m gonna run a few 1979 Winston Cup races for the next week or so.
Next up is the Sun-Drop Music City USA 420 from Nashville Speedway.
Through 10 races, I’ve only had one winner in my replay, who won the same race in real life.
Stay tuned!
Goals
2 months into the year, and I finally settled on a couple of goals that I’d like to accomplish this year:
- Complete the 1967 San Francisco Giants season replay
- Complete the 1979 Winston Cup season replay
For the first one, I’ll have to play about 9 games a month or about 2 games a week in order to finish by end of the year.
For the second one, I’ll have to run about 2 races a month in order to finish by the end of the year.
Here’s hoping I can achieve at least one of these goals.
Stay tuned!
1967: Giants Replay, Games 74 & 75
Double-header in Philly!
Finals from Shibe Park:
Game 1:
Game 2:
What’s worse than losing a game by walking in the winning run?
Hitting a batter with the bases loaded, which is exactly what Lindy McDaniel did. He plunked Dick Allen with one out and the bases loaded in the bottom of the 12th to hand the win to the Phillies.
