Ya I raced it a few weeks ago and spun a main bearing. Swapped out the engine and went back out today.
Did a bit of damage.

Joint fell off (not sure its official name) so we welded a chain around to secure it. Lasted 2 races then the link collapsed, folded and rubbed the tire till it blew. Lol
Got a parts car so she'll be back out tomorrow.

wow the racecar looks great. I bet with even the stock engine and all that weight reduction it gets up and goes. is your car carb or fuel injected?

Damn that is pretty hardcore running with the busted ball joint! Nice fix to get you through the race! Car looks pretty sweet too! Nice looking paint work. :)
