2016: SCRAM Race #2

Posted on by

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!

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!

Schedule

Yeah, this never has worked for me: setting up a schedule for what to play on any given day.

I had a table that I rolled dice one to try to determine what game I would play on a given night.  Didn’t work, never stuck to it, and it was edited many times as I finished a given replay.

I want to try to organize my play between sports games and war games, so maybe I should just alternate my weekly focus from one to the other, because I’ve actually found myself frozen into inaction as I try to decide between the two hobbies.  I end up doing neither and spending too much time online or wallowing in my own indecision.

So starting this week, I’ll continue with the war games (Bataan! is my primary focus), and switch to sports next week, just in time for the big racing day of 2017 (Monaco GP/Indy 500/World 600), which happens to fall on my sister’s birthday.  Focus will be on baseball and (of course) racing games.

And maybe wrestling.

Stay tuned!
