Scott, Monte Howard lives around there close. He is in Indy. Find him and he may be able to help you.

Re: Racers Need Help
 

Hey Scott....did they get help?

Re: Racers Need Help
 

I called Steve right after Scott posted and he was thinking of getting a tow back to Indy at a shop where he knows things will be safe. He felt that he had an issue with a piston and the motor was going south. I hope we may get some more info soon though.

Re: Racers Need Help
 

Thank you to all, They have gotten a lot of help. I'll keep you posted but it does not sound good. Thanks again to all who called and offered assistance. Racers are the best.

Scott, Thanks for the update, I can't imagine what I would do in their situation. Hope they can get back to CA without any more issues. We are glad they could come and give a great show at Indy.

I called em and offered all the help I could give from 1,300 miles away....I also offered help from my relatives in Western Iowa... (I am sure they don't mind)... These guys are as good a people (is that a correct phrase?) as you can find. And the Drag Racing community is the greatest to help out someone that needs help. Isn't it amazing the network we have???

Re: Racers Need Help
 

Sorry guys just saw this. I live 20 - 25 miles from there and have a friend that is a good diesel mechanic if you need.
You can take it to my house and I am sure he would help you out.
sska31@gmail.com if you need me.

Re: Racers Need Help
 

Sorry guys, but I just can't help myself and the "Farmers Daughters jokes"... Here are 3 California guys broke down on the side of the road in Farm country......Imagine Mark walking to the closest farm house (I adore Mark), Mark says " we broke down and need a place to sleep"..... The farmer says "OK, but you can"t sleep with my daughter........you get the drift.....Mark, I love you brother, but I am not sure you can communicate with the midwesterners .....I am not worried about Steve and Chad....."They look normal"

Re: Racers Need Help
 

The farmer would think he was just Amish, and would be looking for the broken horse carriage. :)

Re: Racers Need Help
 

X2 on that....in overalls he would pass for Amish but his other carriage sure isn't broken...that little 340 sure hauls. Hate their misfortunate 2000 miles from home, that's gonna hurt$$$$.

Re: Racers Need Help
 

Just read the post..... Did they get it handled ? Were They on I-70 or 74, I,m four mile from the indiania-Illinois line on I-70 . dennis

Re: Racers Need Help
 

Chad, Steve and Mark are in Indiana and have had the truck towed to a local KW dealer. They are headed out to the track at this point.


Thank you again..

Just send dad Mike Loge back there with his open 4 car hauler to pick up
the race cars and bring everything back home.
