Sorry to hear this Larry! You have to own a shop or have big bucks to track these cars/run them hard. Sometime you gotta know when to fold...

I agree. It seems like every race car at the track is a shop car. Now I know why. I'm not giving up. I'm just getting something better suited to the abuse.

I agree. Road racing is a very expensive sport.........just about any form of automotive racing is, actually.

It can actually be alot of fun by downgrading to a "lower limit" vehicle..like a Miata. Higher limits = higher dollar budget.

Budget racing (grassroot motorsports) = more timing have fun.....less time worry about your car (and budget).

The engine is almost out. Quadcam and I worked on it tonight over at his shop. Not too big a job with a lift. We should have the engine out tomorrow.
