Several racers are departing for the Fray today. More and more will be convening on the sleepy seaside town of Ferndale, California over the next 72 hours to compete in one of the hobby's biggest all T-Jet races. It may even be one of the biggest races in all of slot car racing with somewhere in the area of sixty competitors.
What is the attraction to the Fray? When I talk to people about it, there are two common themes. One is community and the other is competition, in that order. Everyone there enjoys reuniting with friends, meeting new friends and putting names to faces. The competition is hectic, fast-paced and intense. There will be cheers of joy and expletives of disbelief. It's all part of the experience.
The air is filled with anticipation and excitement. To all the Frayers this year, I hope you get seriously Frayed.
