Things are exciting, now, as we have a pavement car ready to go sans engine and fuel tank. It's waiting on placement of graphics and we expect it to look really sharp this season. Jimmy's been working closely with a contact from a local graphics shop and has come up with some great ideas on a way to make the car stand out and look especially good for the night races. We can't wait to get the vinyl on the car and get some pictures on here. Oh, the suspense is killing us!
We wanted to offer a good compare-and-contrast on the nose of the pavement car. This is what we had configured last year:
This is what it looks like, now:
It's easy to see just how much sleeker the car looks and no doubt, how much more aerodynamic it will be on the race track during the season. We have a couple of configurations that we can run based on track conditions that we didn't have last year. It's nice to be in a position to have options to make ourselves that much more competitive. Jimmy's got a great feeling about how the car will race with these changes made to the front end.
The dirt car is also coming along nicely. We hope to get some pictures posted of that in the next couple of weeks as Jimmy continues to make the necessary modifications to that chassis and gets it ready for the Indiana State Fairgrounds run in May.
Keep checking back as we continue with our weekly updates. In the coming weeks we'll have, not only, the updates about the dirt car but we'll be getting engine modifications done for the ethanol conversion, running them on the dyno and finally, dropping them into the frame and have rolling chassis soon. Things are getting exciting and we're looking forward to a great season!
