Project Junkyard Dog

I'm still trying to wrap my head around the idea that it's cheaper to race a circle car (pave or dirt) than drag....I've got a circle track 6minutes from my house as opposed to the 2-6hr tow to dragstrips and I wouldn't even consider doing it. They seem to hemorrage money and parts on a weekly basis. When I ran stockcars back in 78-82 I'd work on the car 6 1/2 days to race it 1/2 and then tow home a destroyed car and start over again..and most of the time it wasn't my fault, caught up in traffic etc.

More power to you, good luck, sorry to see you go.
