Sprint Car - Almost time to back it in.

Looking good! I like the paint scheme.

Where do you race? Gunna run wing or non-winged? What class? Your horse would put you in what we call "sportsman". Entry level hobby guys, just out to have a good time and enjoy themselves. Think of it as ASCS lite. Most of them run 500-600 horse setups, small wing, theres some cam/lifter restrictions and weight restrictions as well. Just a good way to spend a friday and saturday night and have some fun.

Thanks! I appreciate it! I drew up the paint scheme on the computer, cut all the vinyl and applied it all myself. I also made all the body panels out of aluminum myself (excluding hood and tail tank). My home track is Ventura Raceway, I've been involved for almost 12 years, raced nearly 9. Hopefully I can get more support and sponsors as I get more experience and spread to Bakersfield, Santa Maria, Perris, then move north. I'm going to be running wingless, they don't really run wings down here in SoCal. Hopefully within the next 3 years I can run a full season with USAC West Coast 360's. I'm going to be racing with VRA, which uses the same rules essentially. All the cars have hilborn injection, I'm gonna be down on power quite a bit; between probably 100-200 hp. I'm not worried about it though (a 360 won the annual 410 race) I need seat time most importantly. Ventura is a small track at 1/5th mile so I should be able to get away with it. It's my passion for sure and I enjoy it more than anything, but I also want to make it into a profession. I'd like to race with CRA and the USAC National series in a few years. Basically our engines around here are ASCS engines. The only rules are regarding heads, restrictions, titanium engine components, and displacement. Vehicle weight rule is 1500 lbs with driver. Everyone runs aluminum heads (except me :D)

I'll post pictures of my past progress and any future progress to keep everyone updated.
