LMAO, the tech guys in Florida? Scott Reinhardt taking a couple hundred to lose a career. Seriously? I will forward this to the tech dept and they can get to the bottom of it. This is a perfect example of why people have a negative perception of USLC. If you get full rebuilds for $1200 to $1800 I will send a couple of 1200's over. I try to stay on the fence, but sometimes you just have to call it what it is, B>S>! ALOT of legend racers race on a shoe string, they race on a small budget because they CAN. They CAN race a Legend, they could not race anyother car with so many places and venues and with a rule book that is pretty much followed all over and at every venue. The downfall is the budget, we all have to stretch every dollar, you never know when you will get caught up in something on the track, you need another set of tires, you want better brakes, you want those light wheels everyone else is running, etc etc. That motor goes 40 races between rebuilds, it has been rebuilt 4 times and BOOM it GRENADES. Is this the builders fault? When I am at USLC and I walk through the area whaere the rebuild are stored prior to rebuild it amazes me to see the nasty, old abused motors waiting for the miracle rebuild. Did i see a fresh rebuild in Florida blowing oil, yes I did. Did they put a catch and return system on it? Yes they did. Should they have to do this? NO. What else are going to do at the track, you are there for a weak, you cant tear it down there and rebuild it. Again, should there have been a problem, NO. Were there ANYOTHER BUILDERS THERE? USLC looked at the problem at the track, made the best decision at the time and I am sure will fix the issue. There was a motor three stalls down from me that was sealed and WAS NOT A USLC motor, it blew up big time. Four spots the other way, two blown engines that WERE NOT USLC engines, huge holes in the cases. Where were these builders? I am sorry for the rant, but BS is BS, paying the tech at Auburndale, seriously!
