- BACK ON THE GROUND!!
Well after a cold day of working
in the shop - the modified is back on its feet and ready to be scaled. Long time family friend and former La. State Champion
Johnny Vaught came over and performed a perfect bearing grease job and used he many years of racing experience to set the
hub bearing tension just right. A new rear "TMS Legal" rear spoiler and rear filler panel was installed today along
with some additional work to the hauler. Plans at this point are to work stocking the trailer next week with spare parts
and tires and be ready for pratice at Champion Park on 2/20. Then its on to Texas Motor Speedway on the 25th!
Thanks for checking in!!

at Champion Park Speedway on the 20th before heading out to Dallas on the 25th. We hope to have our final 2010 sponsor lineup
completed by next week - so be sure and check back!

- LATEST NEWS
Well while scaling the car last weekend
we ran into some clearence problems on the right rear suspension and closer inspection revealed that the car
was equiped with the wrong bird cages. And as things would have it and always seem to go - while trying to get them off
we found the brake floater to be bent and in a bind......so we've been heating, beating and greasing the tubes
to get the old stuff off. We hope to have the new bird cages on by the weekend so we can get this puppy scaled out. Thanks
to Greg Heron and Johnny Vaught for their help on the rearend!

- CHECKING IN
Sorry about no updates recently but we've been busy kepping
the UPS man rolling delivering parts all over the USA! We're trying to hit as many auctions and trade shows as possible
over the next few weeks to keep UPS busy. Per our conversation with the Walkers it looks like Champion Park Speedway will
have a pratice day before the big show at Texas Motor Speedway in late February - so we will be able to get a little track
time on the Shaw before heading out to TMS for the World Dirt Track Championships. We have completed all the modification
to the hauler we wanted to make so we looking forward to the trip. Thanks for checking in!!
