Vroom Vroom

Its time for this year's Dad Camp, and we have a tropical storm dropping buckets of rain on us today so we are inside, time to play a game...

Its the next race in the NE Dustbowl 2000 series

Who will race?

Only three cars qualify for the start line

The cars are off!  The course looks as intimidating as always

Team Green jsut about to attempt the swamp jump

Red pulls in for more fuel

White surges ahead to finish the first lap (of 6)

Green follows soon after

White races ahead, is this lead untouchable?

White laps Red

White readies for turbo

White catches Green

White laps Green

Green pulls in to diarm the guns White switched on earlier in the race, they have been playing havoc with Red and Green all race

White has a one lap and commanding lead so far

Green pushes hard to catch up, Green pulls back the lap lead White has

Going int to the final straight White's lead has been slashed, green could take this, White has one more action, is it enough?

White falls short of passing th efinish line.  Grrn laps Red, it is hard on White's heels, with two action remaining Green could take the win, but first Grren has two driver checks, one for the guns White reactivated, PASSED!

The second for the passive mine Red dropped earlier, FAIL!

And with that, White wins!

White wins and starts the doughnut, its on...

and on..

and on..

 and over, White wins, Green second and Red pulls up the rear.   A great game with Mini-Me Major and Minor.


Its been quiet, we have been playing, just not soldiers, instead we have been playing a bunch of board and card games.  Popular this spring and summer so far have been: The Thunderbirds Board game, Unstable Unicorns, Cover Your Assets, Turbo Rush and a perenial favourite, Labyrinth.
