My SS has company now......

[Bodie Jr]

My racing bud just brought a 25 RTR.

He brought it to the house so we could do the break-in being this is his first nitro.

Break in went very well and it fired up from just a tap on the roto start.

It's starting to pull wheelies now.

Why is there a cingular wireless cup car in the background?

 

[Bodie Jr]

We're into other forms of racing too.

Beast Ice, that used to be one of my favorite poisons.

 

[Çh®i§tiªñ]

That cool! I like the new bodies!

A true bashing buddy!

Yea I would like to see some pics of the race car in the background. What kind of car is it??

 

[Bodie Jr]

I love the ice beast. Had a few while we was breaking in the beast......LOL

The car in the back is a Winston Cup speedway car that was driven by Robby.

I'll get some more racing pics up. Got some good ones from my "tour of duty" last year in Hooters Pro-Cup also.

 

[El Pirata]

Only a few, what's the point then????

 

[Bodie Jr]

El Pirata....I think we would get along just fine.

Here's me working on front end geometry for the Pro Cup car during the pre-season prep.

 

[Bodie Jr]

Better pic of cup car.

Mike who?



I was the tire specialist and front tire changer on a Northern car in '02. We ran the full season and finished 5th in the Northern points.

Michael Strother. Southern series. We're not running this year. At least not a full schedule. He's helping Mark Whitaker this year and I'll help out at the local races.

Pics of the car I worked on, Phillip Rondeau's.


Strother was the 3 car, Lonestar Motorsports???? You bastid's wrecked us in '02 at Myrtle Beach in the championship series.

 

[Bodie Jr]

Yup.......Lonestar Motorsports. I wasn't working for him then. Sorry

Was running an old heavy arse busch car then. Drop snout I think. It was a non-turning pos........LOL

Are you working with them this year? Kinda interesting with the new radial tire.


Late model pic from Hickory.

No funds like everyone else. Helping the driver out for one last year of LM's (he wants his 7th track championship at a place he won 110 races at, and his 11th overall) then it's onto full time sponsor hunting yet again. I hit the MB Pro Cup races and prolly going back to SoBo in a few weeks. I work on 3 cars at 3 different tracks with 3 different teams....



I was joking about the MB deal anyway. That place is a shithole with seashells mixed with the asphalt. Makes for fun about 100 laps in when some guys come in and others stay out. Most places drop 1-1.25 seconds on tires. Some guys when we were there dropped 2-2.5, people just run over one another and the turns have walls inside and out.

 

[Bodie Jr]

LOL....That was a classic. I showed your reply to my girlfriend and said it's a small world. We both ROTFL'ing.

Lack of funding is and has hurt alot of teams including us.

Let me know if you make it down to NC for any of the south series races.

I plan on doing Ace, Hickory, Concord and maybe MB. There's a couple others I might try to make.

Would REALLY like to go to Bristol. Pro Cups will be fast there. I'm betting the PC cars will be quicker than the Busch cars at Bristol.
