Hi,

Name is Frank and have just bought a Legend in San Diego - simply a bit of fun.  Plan is to use it at the local autocross and also do a few track days - never worked or set up a bike engined car before, so will definitely be using this forum regularly.

If there is anyone else down in SoCal with a Legend, let me know - I literally have hundreds of questions, and I haven't even started stripping the car down yet!

Looking forward to mining all of you for info.

Good to see a new name on the forum.  Never be shy about posting a new topic.  If you have a question, ask it.  I haven't had one yet that wasn't responded to.  Lots of good info, lots of good advice.

Welcome!

welcome to fight clu........welcome frank!
I don't know if I can make the car win, but I think I can make it run fast enough to where people think we're cheating.

If they ask if we're cheating, smile and answer,"Yes".  They won't believe you if you say,"No".

Don't do it...  You'll be looking at soap in the shower again...  Bad thoughts, must open head and scrub brain...

Sometimes in the shadow of boredom after a racing season, forum members indulge in moments of insanity.

Hello.   My Name is Joe.  I'm from Menoken ND.  I just ordered a brand new '37 Chevy Legend car to race up here on the local dirt tracks.  Looking forward to chatting with everyone.  Little bit about my back round.  I'm a firefighter in Bismarck ND, married for 2 yrs, no kids, and I love racing.   I started out in the "road hogs" class (2 people driving the car, one has the gas and the other has the steering and the brake) which was fun but got to be a demolition derby at 50mph.  I then moved to lawnmoer racing and have been doing so for the past 7 yrs.  I love racing mowers but I was approched by my wifes godmother about racing a legend.  So long story short, my car is on the way and thats why I'm here. ;)

You lucky lad Joe.  Welcome.

If you have a question, ask.  Someone will answer. 

Spend a couple days going over all the posts and you'll get a really good grounding on Legends.

Hello ! My name is Van Sykes and I live in Stevensville Maryland. I have been in racing for most of my life! Got the fever at around 13, at local dirt track in North Carolina back in 1968 (thats were I am from). I have been in legends since 1999, with one small hang up. My kidneys failed in the fall of 1999 only two races after buying my frst legends car. On January 7th 2000 I had a transplant with a LARGE thanks to my Dad. He is now 72 and I am 52 and a Golden Master thanks to him. So I am into my third full season going into 2008! It took awhile in order to get back on my feet. I run at Shenandoah Speedway in LarayVa. and at Old Dominion Speedway in Manassas Va. I am looking forward to 2008 and hope that everyone is, So good luck to everybody and one good note the season is just around the corner. Last note I look forward to chating with this group! Thanks Van #82[/quote]
