This is the Super Latemodel team that I work for when im home on vacations......
Number 78, Driven by B.J. McLeod, this was at Orlando Motor Speedworld, He is sponsored by Boggy Creek Airboat Rides...... this is us unloading..... Attachment 52106 Attachment 52107 Attachment 52108 Attachment 52109 this is our nice Snap-On war wagon..... Attachment 52110 this is the inside of the hauler.....its all brand new Attachment 52111 B.J out on the track for practice..... Attachment 52112 Us setting the car up cause it was horrible in practice.....loose, tight, horrible, it was a new car and had never been raced Attachment 52113 we qualified 3rd after a bunch of guessing, crutching and im sure a prayer or too......sadly some jackhole decided to forget how to drive and make our 70K dollar late-model look like a trophy truck (i was 15 seats up in the stands and could see the driveshaft as BJ jumped the guys rear tire) and cost the team about 5K in repairs, the front clip came up and hit the balancer shattering it, ruined the steering unit and lines, and tweaked everything, so the car had to go to Port City in Michigan to get reclipped......luckily all the motor needed was a new balancer....

Well, having been around racing all my adult life, I reccomend magnafluxing that crank. It took a shot, which can cause unseen damage, which will make itself known at the most inoppurtune time, usually leading with a couple laps to go, in a very big race.
Seems like every brand new car gets a hit like that. Had the whole front end torn off mine, right after installing a complete new body. Never even scratched the old body, just wanted to update. |
that will teach ya :D
