We take all of our cars to AD-ART. Its right on the highway in Georgetown. A few are actually there right now. I hope more of the cars out there look better this year. Its in the rules they have to so lets hope.
Me and my cousin are def going to practice. I was curious who else was.

Swafford! Its good to see you have matured since last year. You seem to have a much better attitude and more respect for you car and competitors. Let hope the 27 of Sipple has too. You 2 had quite a rivalry going. Lets see how his attitude is this year.

Trust me racefan100. Chevys are great vehicles but one thing that always goes bad on them is hub assemblies. But theyre easy to fix. I put prob at least 3 or 4 on mine each year.

Exhaust System 1. All cars must have exhaust that exits the car behind the driver. Exhaust must match stock size. Approved mufflers required. No performance mufflers allowed, must be stock OEM type. Must remove Catalytic Converter.
2. No headers, stock manifolds designed for the make and model only.
3. No performance enhancing “traps” or exhaust parts will be permitted.

turns out the hub bearing was loose, tightened it up , and its good for now

Post by Tubbs60 on Mar 23, 2010 18:37:32 GMT -5
Yeah man. Gotta make sure those bolts are tight as much as we bounce around out there. We check everything every week. Transmission mount bolts are big. Last year the 61 car had the trans mount botls snap cause they came loose. So we make sure every bolt is tight after each race.
And hopefully i should have the car back from lettering tom so i can finish up some last minute things im still missing.
