Memorial Day Double-Header: Team Maddox and Webster Motorsports Dominate

The first event on this glorious Memorial Day was a 200-lap road race on SR3’s Fast Esses course. Team Maddox put on a good showing and brought a new Junior driver, August Feinstein, who did exceptionally well in his first appearance at Stewart Raceway.Abe and August at the controls in the 200-lap event.

3 Abe Maddox 198 49 3182.646
4 August Feinstein 159 32 3243.437

This race was run with just one marshal and the good ole “Track Call” honor system, which always has its share of trickery. Throughout the race, Team Maddox was always within striking distance of the overall victory, but also battled intensely among themselves. Shaylin and Abe had extremely close segment run-times for the first three segments, with Abe taking 2nd-place in the first 50-lap segment and 1st-place in the third segment. Going into the final segment, Shaylin was down five laps but just 4 points behind the race leader, Home Cook’n, and two points ahead of teammate, Abe Maddox.

In the end, both Abe and Shaylin had perfect 50-lap segments, with Shaylin taking the segment and overall race win, just one point ahead of Home Cook’n. Abe would finish in second place, just a bit over 1 second behind the winner, Shaylin Maddox.Race Director is setting things up as Abe and August anxiously await track power.

New Team Maddox driver, August Feinstein, had his best result in Segment 2, finishing one lap ahead of teammate, Abe Maddox, for 3rd place. August also bested the field in Segment 2 with a fastest lap of 4.922 and the fastest median lap time.  Team Maddox had a pretty good day. Details

The second round of the double-header race day included two 120-lap fuel races, one IROC and one Builder class. Team Donaldson, Webster Motorsports, and Seltzer Speed/Marine started the event with a 120-lap MegaG+ Modifieds IROC set at 20v.

Race 1

Webster Motorsports Expert driver, Kevin Webster, dominated this first 120-lap fuel race with three segment wins, consistent driving, and a perfect 120-lap total. New Sportsman driver, Jeff Seltzer, appearing for his second time at Stewart Raceway, had a very good run. Jeff won one segment, finished 2nd in two others, and the fastest median lap time of segment 2. Teammate, Bev Seltzer, clicked off the fastest lap of segment in the Orange lane at 6.024 seconds.

Team Donaldson’s, Dean Donaldson, took the final podium spot with two 2nd places, two 3rds places, and 3rd overall. Dean also clicked off the fastest lap of the race with a 5.753 lap in the Orange lane. Dean only lost one lap throughout the race to Expert driver and winner, Kevin Webster.

Team Seltzer Speed & Marine had a pretty good night but had to cut things short before the final 120-lap race. Given their ever-decreasing lap times and success, I know this team is going to be back at Stewart Raceway. In fact, Bev was practicing pit stops during practice, demonstrating she’s serious about getting on the podium soon. Details

Race 2

The second and final race of the night was, of course, the Builder’s Viper V-SPEC Lexan class. Sportsman, Dean Donaldson, was anxious to try out his new Viper and came out swinging in Segment 1 with the fastest lap and a 2nd place finish against two Expert drivers. In fact, Dean’s total runtime was just .01 seconds more than the segment winner. Unfortunately, Dean had Expert driver, Kevin Webster, breathing down his tailpipes on the last lap, and chose to bag the 2nd place segment points instead. Kevin, realizing he could refuel without losing points, wisely did so. The situation would result in Dean starting the second segment with little fuel, while the other to drivers would start with a full tank.

Dean would lose four laps due to pit stop problems in segment 2, while Kevin Webster clicked off a perfect 30 laps. Dean started segment 3 just four laps down, but tied in points with Kevin at 24. Dean needed a win.

Ultimately, Kevin would win segment 3, putting Dean out of contention. Still, Dean fought hard in the last two segments, only losing one more lap, but unable to overtake Kevin for 2nd place overall. Dean was less than a second behind Kevin in the final segment at the finish line. Details

What a great of racing! Thank you all for participating and bringing all the goodies, snacks, dinner, and wine! Congratulations to Jeff Seltzer for his second-place (1st Sportsman) finish in the first 120-lap race. Also, congratulations to Shaylin Maddox for an incredible win in the 200-lap event! Some very fun and competitive racing, for sure.

Race 1: MegaG+ 1.7 Lites (Support Class)

Dean Donaldson proved he’s not just a Viper specialist in the final round of the series. The MG+ 1.7 chassis with an F1/Indy hardbody requires a fair amount of driving skill to master. Going into the final segment of Race 1, Dean was down two laps, but tied in points with Expert driver, Kevin Webster, sitting in 2nd place. Neither driver had a clear shot at the overall win, but the 2nd spot on the podium was up for grabs. So it was going to be a dogfight for 2nd place, and a dogfight it was. Both drivers had a perfect 30-lap final segment, but Dean wasn’t going to leave anything to chance, and he won the last segment outright and secured the 2nd-place podium position. Nice driving!

Race 2: Wizzard Storms (20v) (I)

Kevin very nearly won this race. He and Dean had a one-point advantage going into the final segment, and the race win was still up for grabs. Kevin led the race going into the last segment and all drivers completed all 30 laps on the same lap! This one was the closest of the day. Details

Race 3: MegaG+ 1.7 Modified (i)

Team Maddox showed up for Race 3 and very nearly stole the whole show. The team hadn’t raced at Stewart Raceway for well over a month, but they demonstrated what a powerhouse team they are. Junior driver, Abe Maddox would bag three 2nd place segment finishes while Mom, Shaylin, would win her first segment and bag a second and third place segment finish.

Dean Donaldson had a great race going into his final rotation, leading the race by three points. Unfortunately, Dean had a disastrous final segment in the Blue lane, which netted him just 7 points, dropping off the podium but tied in points with Abe Maddox. Details

Race 4: Viper V-SPEC SPEC STOCK Lexan

Always the premiere race of the day, this one did not disappoint. Team Maddox had to cut their day short, so it was Sportsman driver, Dean Donaldson, against two Experts for the final official race of the day. Dean again proved he’s a top-level Viper driver with a solid 2nd-place podium finish and only five laps down at the end. Dean took 2nd place in all three segments and was just 3/100ths of a second off Home Cookin’s fastest lap. Details

New Track Records

Yeah, these are easy ones. The Wizzard Storms we ran in Race 2 have never been run on the “Fast Esses” course. Consequently, that race produced three new lap records.

Kevin Webster (Set Owner) clicked off a 5.389 in the Orange lane. Home Cook’n clocked a 5.659 in the Blue lane.

Race 5:  Life-Like M-Chassis NASCAR (Webster) (i)

Not an official race, but these slotheads weren’t quite done racing. Kevin Webster redeemed himself in this one with three solid 2nd-place segment finishes and 2nd place overall. Dean and Kathy didn’t appreciate these cars, but they were pretty cool. Dean finally got into his groove in his final segment and bagged a 2nd place segment finish in the Green lane. It looks like Dean is figuring this out quite quickly. Details

Friday Night Lights Events Gaining Momentum

We need a new logo but this will do for now.

It’s looking like Friday nights under the lights could be a thing.

Our third Friday night event drew a total of five drivers to the SR3 “Fast Essses” course for some hot laps and a pair of 30-lap fuel races.

Friday nights are always a bit different since, well, it’s Friday night, and some of us tend to tip a few glasses of our favorite alcoholic beverages. As most people would assume, alcohol isn’t a performance-enhancing substance when it comes to driving things, including slot cars.

So, Friday nights will always be a little less serious but not at all less competitive. That said, rules of racing still apply and are enforced.

* Only completed one race.

Sportsman driver, Dean Donaldson (Team Donaldson), continued his success with the Viper V-SPEC platform, very nearly knocking Expert driver, Kevin Webster, off the second step of the podium. While our newest and hopefully returning driver, Jeff “Dave” Seltzer (inside humor) had a wonderful first-ever appearance at Stewart Raceway.

Race 1: Viper V-SPEC “SPEC STOCK” Lexan

Jeff Seltzer had an awe-inspiring race with the Viper V-SPEC platform. Jeff took second in two of his segments and a first in his final segment in the Orange lane. In his first-ever HO-scale race, Jeff finished in 2nd place overall with a fastest lap of 5.399 in the Green lane. Very impressive!

Both Bev and Jeff were running “house” Viper V-SPEC platforms out of Eric Lane’s donated six-car IROC set. Bev was the lone female driver in the field, and while she had SR2 road course experience, she had not yet run on the SR3 course. Not sure if the car we gave her was the best of the bunch, but she did well, and her lap times are steadily improving. Her fastest lap was a 5.512 in her final segment in the Green lane. Bev’s next visit should be even better since she ordered a new Viper V-SPEC L4 platform after her first visit on April 11.

Race 2: Viper V-SPEC “SPEC STOCK” Lexan

While Dean struggled a bit in Race 1, getting comfortable with his new Viper car on SR3’s “Fast Esses” course, he regained his groove in Race 2. Dean led Expert driver, Kevin Webster, by just two points going into the final segment. Kevin had two laps on Dean, but Dean had placed 2nd in two of his three segments. Kevin needed to at least place 2nd in the final segment to take the second podium spot.

Dean would click off his fastest lap of the race in the Green lane with a 4.714 lap and place 2nd overall, edging out Kevin by four points. Kevin fought hard for the second podium spot, but Dean was just too fast in the Green lane while Kevin coped with the slightly more difficult Blue lane.

2025 50/50 Series, Round 4 — From TFX Loose to V-SPEC Stuck, Another Awesome Day of Racing on SR3!

Round 4 was quite a day for the Sportsman field. Our newest racing team, Team Rowland, got a taste of T-Jet racing in Race 1, driving a set of almost stock OS3 TFXs with Aston Martin hardbodies that George picked up at the Fray in Ferndale last week.

Jared Johnson on his way to his first podium, taking 2nd place in Race 4 at Stewart Raceway. Jared demonstrated he’s a force to be reckoned with even for Expert drivers, taking a 4th and 2nd in his two races.

Race 1: OS3 TFX Aston Martin Fray Hardbodies (IROC)

Courtesy of GP Design’s journey to the Fray in Ferndale, these Dash bodies fitted to an existing house set of TFX chassis handled very well and looked even better. As expected, the Expert drivers dominated this class, with Home Cook’n setting four new lap records; the fastest lap was in the Green lane, at 9.721. Dave Rowland topped the Sportsman class with a perfect last segment of 25 for 90 laps and a fastest lap of 10.181.

Team Rowland did pretty well, considering only Arlo had any track time with this type of car prior to Round 4. Details

Race 2: MegaG+ 1.7 “Lite” F1/Indy Hardbodies

This platform continues to be highly competitive and enjoyed by all who have campaigned with it. We haven’t run the Lite class in almost a year! It’s not much different from the “Modified” variant, but the heavier hardbody causes it to have slightly slower lap times. Expert driver George Peters was the dominant Expert in this one, winning three of his four rotations. Junior driver Coe Rowland had an incredible run in this race. Coe was the top Sportsman finisher with 86 laps, 42 points, and a 6.469 fastest lap. Details

Race 3: Viper V-SPEC “SPEC STOCK” Lexan Bodies

Another very competitive platform at Stewart Raceway. The V-SPEC Viper is a favorite due to its incredible downforce and amazing speed. Always a substantial adrenaline-pumping race. This one was especially different since Sportsman driver and Team Johnson leader, Jared Johnson, was absolutely on fire. Team Johnson was late to the party and jumped into the program in Race 3 after just a few practice laps. Jared’s first segment was so-so, but he clicked off an impressive 4.8-second lap in the White lane. Jared stepped up his game in his second and third segments, winning handily by one lap and three laps, respectively. He had the fastest lap in his third segment of 4.610 in the Orange lane. Jared nearly made the podium and was the top Sportsman finisher, with 92 total laps and 50 points. Dave Rowland was a close second in the Sportsman category, with 91 total laps and 44 points.

In all the excitement, Coe and Arlo Rowland each finished second in this fast and furious race—amazing!

Despite the blistering pace in this one, no new track records were set. Jared’s 4.610 lap was the fastest in the race, but it was roughly four tenths of a second off the record currently held by Aaron Castro. Details

Race 4: Jag Hobbies TR-3 “Augoran” Hardbodies (IROC)

Continuing his impressive driving in Round 4, Jared Johnson led Race 4 into the final segment, winning all four rotations. He finished his rotations in the lead and was 11 points ahead of Home Cook’n, who had one more rotation but with two other Experts in the mix.

The final segment was a dogfight between two Experts and an increasingly faster Sportsman. George had a mathematical chance at second overall with but it was not to be. Jared would set a new lap record for this platform in the Blue lane and finish Race 4 second overall, enjoying his first “official” visit to the podium at Stewart Raceway. Great driving, Jared!!  Details

The final round of the 2025 50/50 Series will be on the SR3 oval layout. The tentative program is currently the following:

      • Qualifying
      • Race 1: Johnny Lightning or Autoword X-Traction cars (Loose)
      • Race 2: MegaG+ 1.7 “Modifieds” @22 volts
      • Race 3: Retro-Vipers “Maximum Leeway Lexan Bodies (Fast and loose)
      • Race 4: Viper V-SPEC “SPEC STOCK” Lexan Bodies

Qualifying points will be awarded as follows:

      1.  5.0
      2.  4.5
      3.  4.0
      4.  3.5
      5.  3.0

      7.  2.0
      8.  1.5
      9.  1.0
      10.  .5

Okay, I’m not sure if we’ll be able to hold the final round next weekend. If we have enough drivers (at least six), we’ll give it a go.

The Series points are based on your best results from four of the five rounds. Yep, missing one won’t hurt much, but missing two rounds will keep you off the Stewart Raceway Wall of Fame for this series.

Okay, shut up and drive!

 

A Track Day Or Round 4?

Not sure if this can be considered Round 4 of the 2025 50/50 Series since we only ran IROC cars, but we did have five participating drivers in the mix today, which is enough to consider it an “official” race day.

We also had two new visitors to Stewart Raceway, who were impressive drivers, adapting to slot car racing like veterans. George’s sister, Vic, and her friend, Dave were incredible. Amazingly, six races were run on the day: three dash and three full rotation races, all IROC.

We started out with a couple of Dash races pitting Vic and Dave racing against each other, George and I marshaling.

Place Name Laps Points Total Time
1 Vic Peterson 49 30 NA
2 Hillbilly Dave 48 30 NA

Obviously, pretty close racing for their first experiences on the SR3 “Fast Esses” road course. George’s sis, Vic Peterson, won the first race, and Dave won the second race with only one lap deciding the overall winner.

Once the new drivers had a few laps under their belts, we did another Dash race with the same cars but with George and Eric in the mix.

Vic Peterson had a good run in this last Dash race, finishing 3rd and on the same lap as the winner, Eric Lane. Dave cut some fast laps with the second-quickest and third-fastest medium lap times. It appears that slot car racing prowess runs in the Peters/Peterson family.

Rotation IROC Race 1 (Jag Augoran (IROC) 15v)

Eric “Fast Lane” Lane dominated the first full rotation race of the day with two segment wins and nearly leading the race the whole way. He gave up the lead to George briefly after Segment 5, but came back in and placed 2nd in his final segment, on the same lap as segment winner, Kevin Webster.

Vic Peterson clicked off a speedy lap of 6.465 in the Blue lane during her final rotation. For first time visitors to Stewart Raceway, she and Dave were very impressive against us veteran drivers with way more track time. Details

Always a fast and furious race, the experts didn’t cut anybody any slack in this one and battled fiercely for a podium spot. Jerry completed all 100 laps and very nearly won the overall with some very impressive driving. Details

We should have handicapped the experts in all these races to give our guest drivers a better shot at podium spots, but the Race Director muffed that up as they went head-to-head with much more experienced drivers. Still, both Vic and Dave adapted to the different cars and race formats remarkably well and seemed to enjoy the racing very much.

Vic finished the day with an average placing of 4.3 and a fastest lap of 5.917, while Dave finished the day with an average placing of 4.0 and a fastest lap of 5.043.

Our hapless Race Director–again–failed to get any video of the day’s action. Somehow, the open-source software crashed and nothing of any substance was recorded.

I sure hope Vic and Dave join us again soon. They both took to slot car racing and marshaling very quickly and got faster and faster as the day went on.

Thanks to all who showed up, supported the event and brought goodies to share. Vic’s oat cakes were delicious, and Kathy’s spread of bagels were, too.

If anybody has any pics/videos, please share them with me and I’ll update the post. We didn’t even take a podium shot!

Okay, shut up and drive!
