GTR Braggin' Wagon | RACE-TO-16 | #11

[@kingjester564]

I knew sending in that a gasser would be a gamble and it did not pay off, despite that for my first time competing at shavano mountain it was a blast. Congratulations to Hot nuts for moving on to the next round and thanks for having me participate in this tournament GTR.

[@craigsternelsonsr.1967]

Thank You King Jester!!! Keep experimenting, as it will pay off one day!✌😎🏁

[@Chris_Hood]

You made it this far when so many did not, KingJester--proud of you! Keep moving forward in this quest!

[@lobotomyscam1051]

Thanks for not being afraid to gamble.

[@enzedracing3641]

Kingjester: good to see a Gasser try and tame the mountain! Its hard for a huge V8 drag car to keep up with rally cars and drifters but you gave it a bloody good crack mate!! That weight distribution is extremely hard to get right and I feel that was the issue, especially with a gasser. Keep building and watch GTR previous videos on how to get the balance right. I'm backing you to win here one day 🏆

[@kingjester564]

@@enzedracing3641 Thanks, as you could see in the window I put the weight in the middle as that’s usually the safest place, yet now looking at its performance I should have placed it more towards the back to act as a counter-balance to the lifted rear. It didn’t help I had skinny wheels front and back which made it even more difficult to stick the landing. Yet you live and learn, so now I have a better understanding of what to do next time I’m doing a gasser build

[@enzedracing3641]

Irons Diecasts halftime drift was smooooooth as butter! That should be a contender for "Drift of the Tournament" 😁 Well done Craigster Snr for a great race and a nailbiter of a finish.

[@g-forceracing_27]

What a great race! Keep at it Jester, this track is a beast but once you get some success you'll never want to miss a race! Congrats Craigster, and kudos to Larro for such a close finish! Keep it up Red Panduh, you made a great effort!! Great job Mark, these races are the highlight of my day!!

[@TheMunchBoogie]

First off, your track looks better every time I watch a race. Continue to make those nice upgrades. King Jester and that gasser were hatin' life there for a while along with Red Panduh, but in the end, Cragster Sr. & Larro battled it out with a HUGE win by Craigster Sr. You have a great thing going on over here Mark!!!!!!!!!!

[@kurtwicklund8901]

I am rather new to the YT diecast race scene. So pardon me for asking, what is a gasser? I was rooting for you. :-)

This was more of a battle than I expected... wild.

[@Dromio]

I love it when a new GTR race vid shows up! For people that have submitted a car, what's it like watching your car race? What's a "gasser"? I was rooting for the gasser in this race! :)

[@gravitythrottleracing]

Thanks for the encouragement. Gassers were very popular in the 1950s and 60s. One distinct feature is the fender-well headers or exhaust pipes. You see them sticking out behind the front wheels.

[@Chris_Hood]

A "gasser" is a type of drag racing car that uses common commercial grade fuel instead of specialised "top fuel" that can cost over $100/gallon.

[@cashmoneyboys4628]

Awesome round! Great racing guys. Just when i thought someone had that course figured out; the scrambler strikes again!!😂😂😂

[@numbskulldiecastracing]

Pure goodness, pure fun.

[@jamesbasey8023]

Another outstanding race at GTR!! Down to the last lap again. Congrats to Hot Nuts!!! Awesome job bud!!

[@craigsternelsonsr.1967]

Thank You oh 'Iron One', much appreciated! ✌😎🏁

[@Chris_Hood]

Usually it is the Scrambler that is so unforgiving but in this outing the Creek Jump decided it will have its due this day! Our halftime racers needed the spirit of Aunt Edna on their side for them to succeed in that special event!! 😂 Always a joy to visit Shavano Mountain and bear witness to thrilling diecast action! Congrats Craigster Sr for advancing here today 💯😎🏁

Great racing, exciting action to the last lap. Gratz to Craigster Sr on the win. WTG! Awesome fun event and show. "Keep your roof to the Sun". Mahalo! 🤙🏽

[@cutrockr-diecastracing2773]

Cracking racing again! After the last few weeks, it sure shows how critical it is, when the bonus points are on!! Super show again, production, calling and half time entertainment! Some tough luck again today, but congrats to Hot Nuts today, well done and well done all! Good luck out there, Marc D

[@CodyIrons]

woohoo more screentime!! suddenly heard my car name and was like, oh wait!

[@gravitythrottleracing]

Yep! Love how all 4 drivers kept it close... up to the surprise jump, then Billy sort of ruined it.

[@bertvanderkooij2886]

Audi’s seem to always be more consistent due to their favorable weight distribution and low chassis. Great race, great channel 🎉

[@DogSquabRacing]

Nice assist by Kingjester! Great stuff, Mark! Congrats to the driver moving on to the next round!

[@craigsternelsonsr.1967]

I'll take it! Usually it's ME giving the assist to the winner! LOL ✌🤣🏁

[@sstdiecastracing2372]

This was awesome. Second half was a nail biter. Great job.

[@thomasconnolly7452]

Great race. I didn't expect much from the Gasser setup.

Yay! Craigster Sr🏁🏆 👀👍some nice drifting in race 7 both datsun wagons. And race 8 Craigster Sr. drift

[@invisiblestacker]

Like the camera angle for your intro.

[@BossChampionshipRacing]

Fantastic as always GTR! 🍿😁

[@Vastafari34]

I DIG the new camera angles!

[@richardmorgan9273]

Another close-fought round - the car that made full use of the train bonuses took the win - they often seem to be crucial! I've just noticed: of the 11 cars through to the next round so far, 5 are Datsuns/Nissans - that seems to be the make to beat.

[@MonsterPartsRc]

10:51 Red Panduh had an amazing drift around that turn!!

Really pulling for Kingjester in the Gasser but I suspected from the outset that his jacked up front suspension would cause him trouble.

[@TalkingGIJoe]

lovin it!

[@helldiver87]

А под дефлектором не облезает? Или не видно - не стали делать. И если сняли кронштейны молдингов, надо было и покрасить их в снятом виде, или как там снимается? Симпатично получилось. И свой гараж - это просто кайф!

[@gravitythrottleracing]

The track was painted and then covered with a clear coat. This made it almost as smooth and slippery as the orange Hotwheels track you can buy.

[@rudimoons554]

👍 Thx 🇧🇪.

12:36 he missed the line bro

[@gravitythrottleracing]

It might appear that way at 1/10th speed, but I had the advantage of freez framing the video during production. It was pretty clear, yet you make a good point. Something that close deserves to be freeze framed. I'll keep that in mind. Thanks.

[@enzedracing3641]

Touched by a bumpers width....wouldn't matter if he only got 2 points anyway as he still had made it through by 1 point. But the train points are vital so good eyes on that one mate 🤙🏼

[@kreidas123]

I will say this: Kingjester was NOT designed for racing. Too unbalanced.
