well its been a season of Gremlins for my new SR292. If it could go wrong, it has this season. But I guess thats part of the game.
Latest damage happened durring the I-94 icedaze "Friday Night Under the Lights" event. Feature race didn't get started till after midnight! Lap #2 and I was in 2nd place behind another EXTREMELY fast SR292. Dove into turn #3, and the right spindle broke allowing the ski to rotate 180 degrees. Made for an intresting few moments!!!!

Someone PLEASE preform a anti Gremlin VODOOO type of dance for me! I'm getting tired of not finishing the races this year
HELP!

I've been divorced now for two years, think I'm a virgin again. Does that count?

Female virgins only! Preferably attractive ones.

BTW divorced, been there done that. 2yrs away from the shake up is a good place to be. Time to get back in the saddle again, so to speak.

Really.....thats cool...if ya ever don't make it can i have your sled...LOL..j/k
 
Im running on short ovals usually around 1/3 mile. Thus the straights are only 350-400 ft. geared low to pull hard out of the corners and be done accelerating by the 250-275 ft mark or so. test day on the radar gun had me in the low 50's
 
yes the sled is sweet! and glad to hear you are (seemingly) in good spirits about the ex wife. sounds like it is better now anyways! keep up the vintage racing! old iron is best out there being used!
