I don’t know if Chase has gained a step but I figure his car probably did. Now hopefully the 48 car can gain a step. 😃

There were 98 cars in the Bracket class last night and wow there was some really close racing. I lost 3 of my 6 cars entered by less than .003 but I hung on with one car to get the win.

The worst NASCAR race I ever saw was awesome. 😃

Just about everyone from the Buena Park track moved over to Piranha so that put everyone under one roof and increased the car count at Piranha on a weekly basis.

For anyone interested, I'm pretty sure the USRA races on April 16th-21st and the International Festival of Speed races on April 26th-28th at Piranha Speedway and Hobbies will be live streamed on Twitch-TV.

Here are some pics of the 2024 March Meet a few weeks ago at Piranha Speedway. On Friday night testing JR Mora had a top end crash with his fuel altered and it bent the chassis pretty severely. But he was able to strip it down and put the chassis back on the jig and replace some pipe and get it...

Sorry I haven't posted much, but I have not traveled out of town to any big races this year. Ever since my home track Buena Park closed, I have just been racing a couple times a week at Piranha Raceway. The past 3 weeks has been pretty good with 3 winner/runner-ups and a runner-up. Plus, I won...

That was awesome. It's pretty cool to root for one of the elite team owners and his up-and-coming young superstar in NASCAR :punkrocke

There was a time when I thought about doing the NASCAR gig but those days have passed. The largest thing I’m going to drive now is maybe a pick up truck to a Slotcar track somewhere across this great country. 😃

I agree. The only setback is deer running across the freeway on that route at night. I remember counting 27 dead deer on the way from our Chicago shop to a race in Englishtown NJ. I arrived at the track and figured that was the final tally until I got in the rental car and saw another one on the...

Unless it’s a very close relative I would just tell them I will have to miss the wedding. 😃

Will it bulge and damage the trailer if you don’t open the doors for the air to escape?

I haven’t been so excited for Indy in a while.

You definitely made the smart choice. You would have wore yourself out in all of that traffic and if you have a clutch your left leg would be cramping big time today. But now you are all rested up and ready to rock&roll. Plus you saved a lot of costly wear and tear on your driveline.

Yep, a 1st-2nd-3rd and 8th place finish in Martinsville was awesome for HMS and Chevy. Plus an NHRA Pro Stock win in Phoenix for the Hendrick Cars.com sponsored Chevy was just icing on the cake. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
