After a serious look at our damaged car it was determined
to be repairable by the local chassis builder.
It will take some more time and money
before we can repair our car. (like this winter) I decided
to buy another car to replace the damaged one.
I have decided we will convert the damaged car into a
traveling car for 2009 and install an entire front frame
to race Irwindale speedway, we will have more options
if we choose to sell it.
This car will be the newest car Joe or I have ever owned or
raced, this car is a 2006 Jackson chassis with the other car a
1999 chassis.
The best part is that the cars were almost painted the same
blue color except for the yellow, it has the same shock package
we were already running with better updated springs.
So far we have only purchased the car with out the engine and
transmission ( $$$$) but, we are hoping to get enough
money together for the entire car as is. (I need to hold a sign
along the freeway, "will work for race car money" )
The former owner (Doug & Jan Matter) has agreed to let us
run the car with the engine in it this weekend only.
Thanks Doug and Jan.
stayt tuned and see how we do this weekend...
