This has turned in to a good topic for the Chassis and Setup Section.  ;)

Good show guys!

I almost missed the radio show. That link you gave me wasn't working. Found a link through radiotime.com. I just might find my way into the 21st century. lol! I noticed that you seemed a bit nervous. You and Dan did a good job of letting people know what a legends car is and where to race (or see a race). You also managed to get your sponsors mentioned. Good way to impress your sponsors!

Its done live at the biggest bar/restaurant in Wisconsin, up on stage, so it was a little nerve wracking. I didnt think there would actually be lots of people there staring and taking pictures.

Thanks for the info Gimpster.  Things like this remind me how different these cars are from other classes.

 In a perfect world we would have a racing tire for dirt and asphalt.  One of these days I will have to try asphalt racing

 PM me if you try the set-up I deleted on previous posts and have any issues with it. Without the proper caster split and chassis rake it will push.  The set-up is designed after the old saying "loose is fast, tight is bite". Oh yes... The roll center characteristics of this chassis is way different than a 4 link on a late model or dirt mod for sure.

Bad night for 2 cars out of my stable tonight.

This came in from DJ late last night:

"Won my heat race tonight in Oshkosh and 3rd in the feature after leading 11 of the 20 laps."

Congratulations DJ!!!
Good finish and you led better than half the laps. Your having a great season!

Another bad weekend.

Friday we both finished in the top 10 I think on a very dry slick track, and Saturday we both wrecked. I got hit after getting loose running 2nd, with the other driver ending up on on his roof, but made it back up to 11th, Dan got spun to the infield while in the top 5, no caution, so he ended up 14th.

We'll regroup, and go at it again Saturday with the World of Outlaws Sprint Cars
