I'm 6'2" and 230 and I fit fine.  I have a sedan and I have sat in the coupes.  I don't fit that well in the bubble coupes though.  I have moved my steering wheel heim joint up as far as it goes to help get into the car.  I've never had to move the wheel closer, although I think that would be a driver preferance.   I know some guys run a sprint car style seat and that too will give you more room.  You should easily get by cheap in dirt legends do to lower use of tires.    Welcome to the forum and feel free to ask questions anytime

Hey Folks!

My name is Brian from Raleigh, NC and this will be my first season racing Legends (asphalt). I grew up around racing, but waited until I was 40 this year to actually give it a try! My father and I decided it might be a fun way to spend time together to go race once a month for fun. My father has experiance in racing with working crew on some North East Dirt mods, racing off roads buggies, and demo derby cars. But, Legends will be new for both of us. I have no doubt I will have plenty of dumb questions for you.

Welcome aboard. I was a late starter too (33).
Ask all the dumb questions you want, I probably already did in the past!

Hi, Brian -

We just started with Bandos last year, and moving onto Legends this year. Our 13/14-year-old son, that is. No racing background what-so-ever, so you have a lead on us already! Hope you & your dad have a grand time... it's been great for the relationship between dad & son in our house.

All the best,
Kathy H.

Hello, my name is Robbie and I am 16. I live in Laurel, MS and I am going to start racing legend cars this year at Sunny South Raceway. I started racing dirt oval go-karts in 2009 and now I want to race legends. We do not have a car yet, but I am going to the Lone Star Legends Driving School at the end of this month. After that, we will be looking for a used legend car and will start racing at SSR. Just wanted to introduce myself on here, and I have already found some useful information.

Hello,

  My name is Scott Wiegele and I will be a rookie in the dirt legends series at Beaver Dam,Wi. I have always wanted to get back into racing as I have not done anything since the mid 80's back at Hales Corners,Wi and was a backup driver for a friend of mine in the " Hales Whales division ". Had to take care of the family since we started young and now that the boys are grown up, it's time to start something new.

  I wish I would have done something sooner ( 47 ), but I found this series last year and fell in love with the cars. My father and I don't have much experience with motorcycle stuff, so we may be asking alot of questions that might seem common knowledge to most and dumb to others as we grow into the legends series. Any and all help will go a long way as we venture into this.

Hope everyone has a great 2012 season.

Scott Wiegele
