SCRAM 1960: Race 1
The Southern 500 from the Southern Super Speedway
Race Results and Current Standings:
I arbitrarily picked the #42 Chevy and driver Boyce Daly as the CS Motorsports team for this series, and the pre-race activities resulted in Daly and the #42 getting suspended for 2 races because officials discovered “out-of-tolerance” engine adjustments on the car.
I’m guessing that this will ruin his chances at the championship. Ah well.
Next up: the EverSport Outdoor 301 @ Gulf Coast Speedway.
Stay tuned!
PLAAY Holiday Sale 2020
No sign of the two missing MLB NL card sets.
But did pick up a few PDFs from PLAAY.com‘s 2020 Holiday sale, including:
- a new jai-alai game
- the NFL/AFL 1969 season for Second Season football
- the MLB 1975 season for History Maker Baseball, which comes full circle since the sample teams in my original boxed game were the 2 World Series teams from 1975
- the 1960 SCRAM (fictional) season for Red White & Blue Racing
Of the 4 I’ve already printed out the racing set, and am currently making the schedule for the Replay To Be Started Soon™.
The funny thing is that just last week I was wondering if PLAAY was ever going to come out with a 1960s season set for the game. Hopefully a NASCAR set will be produced from that era.
I’m still hoping that those two season sets show up.
Stay tuned!
