Well a lot has happened in a short amount of time. Nov. 5th was our last race and we stripped the car down to the bare chassis and put it back together in like new condition and it was decaled on Dec.6th. We took it to the IMIS trade show in Indianapolis on Dec. 7th for the entire weekend. We were invited out to display the car in the Champions Hall for being the 2011 AMRA Champion. We picked up some product support such as Out-Pace, Hypercoils, Ultrashield, TSM Enhanced Shocks, Bilstein, Wrisco, Areo Wheels, Keyser Mfg., RCI, Aero, Hoosier, Wrisco, Bazell Race Fuels, Willy’s Carburetors, KSE Pumps, OTR Filters, Octane Race Products and Poske Performance Parts. We also have back on board again, K-Graphics, Coughlin Cars.com, GP&S, Balderson Construction, T&L Consulting, Bill & Patty Welch, Billy Joe & Wanda Hammett. For our first race we planned to go to Moler Raceway Park on March 16th, but they got rained out. Then we went to Florence Speedway on Saturday, March 17th for $1,000 to win. We didn’t make it thru hot laps before we totaled the car. It was a racing incident that we got caught up in. We got some frame damage on the passenger side. This past Saturday we took it to Chuck Stotts and we put it on his frame machine and he worked some pretty good magic. He pulled it back to where it needed to be and now we just need to put it together and we’ll be good to go. We plan to start racing again on April 6th at Jackson County Speedway on April 6th and then at I-77 Speedway on April 7th. Of course, that’s weather permitting.
Remember! To make this work, support those that support us!
Thanks again for your support, KJ
