Shoutout to the Teardown!

JP1738 · 08-04-2025, 09:18 AM

A couple of "Teardown" regulars went deep at Numidia in Stock Eliminator, congrats to Doug Hoven on your R-up Sunday and Paul Stalba on your win in heads-up final round fashion on Friday!

The Teardown is a small groupchat of young class racers, what a treat to see some members get it done for the young guns!

Doug tells me you guys are all on a group chat and its cool that you all connect that way. I shook Paul's hand when he won and of course Doug for runner up. And congrats to all you guys as you go rounds and carry on the class racing tradition.

It's a heavy cross to bear, but we do so proudly.

I have had a loooong day and a half but there is Tech in Div. 6 if you ask for it! Just put an R on the windshield run it, back it up, sealed up, tear it down first real time, start to put it back together at midnight, finish it at 7AM with cam lift check start it, warm up, check for leaks and be 1st pr down the track for Q3 no sleep, and best yesterday's 1st pass by 2/10ths and get resealed after that. 1st rnd win, rnd 2 coming up.

Thanks to Dave for his very thorough and patient work. I love racing in the Northwest...and the car loves the northwest altitude and great racing weather this year!

I know, 80 percent 10mm (but they are in places it is almost impossible to get your hand, and wrenching is a 16th turn at a time). The man has patience and I appreciated every minute of it.

Building it in your garage or shop isn't like doing it in your grassy wet pit space as the heavy dew and chill sets in at 3AM. Having a blast though!

Me and Steve Wann putting the truck motor back together at 1am in Boise in 2009, feel your pain, lol. John

No pain at all, I feel great even though I broke out by a 10th out of it early, so tired though I shot for red rnd 2 just to come up with a .024 the headwind had me fooled, and the car just keeps going faster and faster even when the DA increases here and the wind starts to blow harder. I just have more data for tomorrow which is my last race this year up here. Tired of camping out at33 straight days bur the racing has almost as great as the weather only 12 hrs total of rain and 1 day or so of 97 degrees.

I am headed back to the hell of the desert where there is zero racing for a month and a half.
