I'm still jealous and would love to join you for a few laps (or few seasons )

Come on over Brad...I could always use some people to help out.

Oh, and "Wow, Great Job" never seems to get old for me.

thanks Kris.. we'll leave the "action shots" as an inside joke between us.


Big Mike...you're opinion doesn't matter...mainly because you drive a Scion XB.

I actually only have about $20-25k. Which isn't that bad to go racing. I am on a REALLY tight budget, so I've pinched pennies EVERYWHERE that I could. Almost everything that I have is used. Which makes it even more impressive that I have been able to finish where I have. Now if I were to move up a class (Instead of running the Crate Motor class), and I were to buy everything new...Chassis and Motor it would be close to $60k. That's not including a nice diesel truck and a 32' enclosed trailer.

When we used to race (before everyone's retirement) in 2003 we had 2 cars, 3 engines, a 32' enclosed trailer w/ pretty much a full shop inside, and a Ford E-350 box van with a crew sleeping compartment and storage area. I'd say all of that was probably around $160k or so. We had really good sponsors then though. It's definately not a cheap hobby.

Here are the 2 cars that we had at the same time and a shot of the trailer




And here's a pic after the car got tore up and all of the decals weren't back on it yet, but I think it looks pretty cool anyway
