Welcome aboard Dave.
I don't know much about the 12 step program, so I can't help with the addiction, other than to fuel it  ;D

I will be driving a Legend car for the first time on May 24th at a practice day! My first race is  Wed. the 26th. I haven't raced an oval EVER before, so its gonna be a steep learning curve. I will be running the 37 Ford Coupe, with a number 75. I am excited, and any info and tips are appreciated. Love this site already!

Hello.....
My name is Gerad Miller and this is my first year racing anything.....My wife and I bought a used legends car (37" Chevy Sedan Blue 49) in March, spray painted the bumper yellow and began racing two weeks later.....We reside in Centerville, OH and and race in the F.A.S.T. Midwest series traveling between Kil-Kare Speedway (Xenia, OH), Columbus Speedway (Columbus, OH), Anderson (IN) Speedway and Kentucky Speedway (Sparta, KY).
I have been wanting to get into racing for years and have finally been able to afford it.  So far I have only ran 5 races and managed to destroy my engine.......now that I have a second "used" engine I am ready to continue learning and loving this fantastic adventure......My wife Mary is my only crew so you may see her login as me from time to time and impersonate me.  So if it appears I am saying something extra silly it is definitely not me......it's her.

Additionally my wife and I like to ask a lot of questions and are eager to learn as much as we can!!!  So please be patient as we may ask some really silly stuff.

I should point out this is my first blogish/forum thing too.....so good luck to all of us!

Gerad,

WELCOME TO THE SITE!!!
Always nice to see newcomers! If you have questions, don't hesitate to ask! We have a very knowledgeable group of folks here. All are happy to help out!
Sounds like you are getting around. Sorry about the engine! Happens though. Hope you are able to rebuild the old one for a back up.

Have Mary sign up on the site also. Since she is your one woman crew, I'm thinking that she might have some interesting questions. Remember; There is no such thing as a stupid question... Only the ones that don't get asked.  ;)

Best Of Luck!

Steve

Hey,

My name is John.  I 56 years old and about to retire.  I have been involve in racing since the age of 12.  I have driven  everything from street stocks on asphalt, SCCA road racing in F production,  drag racing,  Minstocks, to most recently a Dirt Super Late Model in the Mid Atlantic region.   I was drawn to Legends cars because of the wide variety of venues, light weight (Too old to push a 2300 lb car around the shop) ,  relatively standard rules and cost.  My grand plan is to travel across the country with my wife in the RV/trailer and find a place to race once a week.  Legends cars appear to be the best fit.  I would like to write about the people and places along the way.  As a rookie to this class I would appreciate any guidence on purchasing a car, spares and basic set up I would need to make this journey.  Many thanks,  John

You've got everything right except the "race once a week" part.
Buy 2 cars, one for asphalt and one for dirts, and I bet you could race 3 times per week!  :)
