ANY OVAL TRACK FANS OUT THERE?

[mikepmcs]

So I decided to take a couple pics tonight seeing this is what i do every tuesday/wednesday and ok most of the week including saturday and last week sunday.  I'm kind of the crew chief and the technical dude but I don't like to claim that title.  Oh yeah...I'm the spotter too, that sucks sometimes by the way but ain't been fired yet.   Man those guys cuss alot!(at me)
This is kind of a check your feelings at the door crew and I'm ok with that considering I have no feelings whatsoever.  Works perfect for me. This is Gene and Zackary(yes that's how he spells it) Hatch.  Absolutely the craziest duo I have ever met.  We got run over Sunday and the car is ready to go again after tonight, but I think that 06X car is gonna have a bad day on saturday...and we will be asked to leave the track for a couple weeks.  It hasn't happened yet but I am just saving myself some typing here.
How's that pinion doing(out of Zack's super street cah' no pics of that one tonight??) One of 3 cars and this is only pics of the pro stock
That is mackadoo in the one picture.   He likes to be on camera.
Stay tuned for sure.
Enjoy

Few more. 
It was a total mess before we started tonight but she came around.

That did say... GENE'S AUTO SALES AND REPAIR.

Circle trackers are the die hards. They will quit their jobs, stop eating, and stay up for 7 days to get a wreck back on the track the next weekend. Go git 'em!

I still go as a spectator to local short tracks. Heres a shot from the "old" days...  The chevy guys were     when they saw this thing turned into a stock car.

I am a big fan.  Raced for a lot of years, sold everything a few years ago.  Just got too hard to stay up all night, all week.

I used to crew with the # 1 Canadian Tire Chevrolet Monte Carlo driven by Peter Gibbons in the CASCAR / NASCAR circuit a number of years back.  I was the spotter during the races and enjoyed it very much.  Long weekends with little or no sleep, food was great and brews on the way home on Sunday nights tasted better than ever.  We won back-to-back championships in 1999-2000 and those two summers I was the best shape I was in since high school.

I'm a big fan of Whitlock and Dilley. I painted their cars since 2001 up till last year.
The Canadian Tire Series produces some great racing.

These were from last saturday's antics. 
That 7 car is another one Gene purchased so he can run with his son.(super street)
Here's the pro street(minus some weight...no, it wasn't the spotter's fault, he simply had no where to go)  Finished 10th and if they would have kept the sheduled 50 laps(cut to 40), Gene would have gobbled up at least 2 more cars.

couple more pics of today, nothing special.

I love going to the Dirt Track Races ( that's what we call them around here  ) I use to work for Bobby Allen. We were at the races every weekend. When the Outlaws were in town it was crazy.

I'll be out again Friday night,  weather permitting. Spectator & Figure 8 racing at Sycamore Speedway outside Chicago.
This car was totally toasted when I got it,  looks great from the stands I'm told:

Later that night,  guy in Valvoline shirt thought she was restorable until he got within 50 feet:

Bent lower control arm,  messed up the steering linkage too:

Making freinds in the pits:

Slapped back together:

She lives to fight again:

I like racing Mopars,  don't matter what year:

many nights later:

The Reliant still runs,  but only in reverse now,  so I got another.  They're for Compact racing,  the fresh white one I traded for a steering column.

You get what you pay for,  she spun the flywheel after just a few nights

So I bought another one for $100.  I'll run her and the Charger Friday night.
I can't take a left turn in street traffic anymore without wishing I was on the dirt.

Love the dirt car pictures, although everybody in the 2nd picture holding a beer sorta makes it look like an episode of "King of the Hill"

anyone got a good tire softener recipe out there.

[WingCharger]

I like the Chevettes.
