Hi,

I don't usually check this channel as it's usually diet, yoga, beepball, etc
related.
What do you mean by diecast racing?
Usually diecast cars are highly detailed fairly heavy smaller versions of a
real car meant for displaying on a shelf.
The only thing I've heard of or done is rc, radio control racing.
Bryan

For those of us into Facebook, we can check out this diecast related group.
Of course, we can also plan ahead so as not to interfere with our next
National Convention. Hopefully, described audio and video replays of the
diecast event are made available. This also affords us opportunity to
educate the organizers of the Midwest Diecast Convention on accessibility,
such as audio and alternative text descriptions of diecast displays and
related activities.

Wow! This sounds like a wheelie fun convention!

Well, what do you know!? the dates for the Midwest Diecast Convention are
July 8-10, 2022 in Sioux City, Iowa. Hopefully, this event will be made
available for rebroadcast so we don't overbook our next NFB Convention.
