Games!

Posted on by

It’s been a busy week of 3D printing, building and painting a pitch for Blood Bowl.

It’s about finished, so I think I’ll be playing a couple of games over the next couple of days.

Back to SCRAM 2013, above everything else, and the 1971 Giants replay.

And perhaps a football game.

Stay tuned!

2013: Stock Car Racing America, Race 6

Posted on by

April 14th, 2013: the Reliable Rental Car 500 @ Texas National Motor Raceway.

Race results:

I believe Pete MacAtee’s win from 42nd place may be the farthest back in the field that a winner has come from.

Current standings:

Ray Bob Walker maintains his points lead as Parnell Drake slips back to 3rd place, while Joey Wilson leap frogs to 2nd place.

Next: the Southern 600 @ Southern Super Speedway.

Stay tuned!

2013: Stock Car Racing America, Race 4

Whoa, two sports game plays in as many days?

March 24th, 2013: the Sun Coast Capital 400 @ Sun King Speedway.

Race Results

Alex Hodge wins his first race of the season.

Current standings:

Ray Bob Walker jumps to the top of the points standings after Mark Forth and Wayne Montana finish poorly in the race.

Next: the California Raisin 250 @ Ocean Pacific International.

Stay tuned!

The opening race of the 2013 SCRAM season.

March 3rd, 2013: the Copper State 500 @ Desert Saguaro SuperSpeedway.

Tom Rossi wins the opening race of the season.

Current standings:

Tom Rossi and Dave Lilly share the points lead due to Lilly gaining a bonus point for leading the most laps in the race.

Stay tuned!
