Have more than one type of vehicle. Run two classes. that will add a new dimension to your race day stress level.
Have a kid or 2 that race with you, THAT almost did me in!!!
true, true.
It's become much better now that Coop can wrench on 80% of the probs with his vehicles. There used to be some racedays that my hands were cramped so bad at the end of the mains that I had to soak them in hot water before I drove home!

i hear ya on that...i will stick to one class since this is already dipping in the race car funds :eek:
I had a blast yesterday......I finished 6th in the C main, and that was my first race and 3rd time drivng the buggy at the track. I think i did OK for the problems i had.....first I had a small run away then got it back on the track and finished my qualifier race, then i had my tire come off the rim to where the foam came out and was like I was driving with 5 wheels....lol. then in the C main my sterring posts came loose sao i lost some steering and had to take the turns wide.
but i did decent for finishing 6th out of 11......it was a blast though.
thanks againh bernie for the tires, and thanks hagasn for the tires.....nice meeting you by the way

I got a great start off the line, probably about 2nd or 3rd, but after the first 2 turns I got swiped and ended up in the grass, last. I worked back up to 3rd. Not bad for me. And I got my fastest lap then, I think it was a 34.185 or something.
ill have shock oil and a secure wing and exaust so im bringing my A game.
