The "NATS NEWS" is available on line and has photos and results from ALL events.

JS Mouse : Ashley Wilk.
Open Mouse : Bill Lee.

Details vary by event, depending of how good a report the ED filed.  The Combat stuff by Wayne McDaniel is very complete and well-detailed.

Thanks Paul,

When I looked yesterday, either that had not posted them yet, or I was just blind.  Again, thanks for the information.

Thanks Guys,

I wish I could have been there.  Hope to make it next year.  I've got a lot of little Mouse Racers that really want to run again.  I need to get my Grandson's more interested so we can up the Jr/Sr numbers.  Paul G., any chance you will be coming to the NATS next year.  I would really like to race against you.  I don't think you were involved in Mouse in the 80's.

HI Wayne,

Although I wasn't there, one of my Streaker's was in the hands of Les Akre. Four in open mouse is a pretty low entry I think.
One attraction to fly at the Nats is to set a (AMA recognized) record. They didn't even have mouse heats this year, so one can't even do that anymore.
I would LOVE to race once again, especially against the Rockford mouse! In light that I've been to Muncie several times already, it no longer has much appeal for me. (especialy the very hot & humid weather) As well, descretionary money & available vacation time is becoming less.
SOoo, although I've been known to show up in the strangest of places on short notice, the Muncie Nats is no longer a priority for me. Which is a bit of a shame, as I've had some very good times there.
BTW, I've being involved in mouse racing all my life...but never ventured state side until Winston-Salem ~'82 or so.
