When was the last time the car was out 4-5 years ago
Then spend more then 500 bucks a year on it
It isnt always about big money
You have to expect to spend some money on it
Class racing costs money..
As in all things for the most part you get what you put into it in both time and money
There are no free rides here and thats the way it should be....

Hi Mark, I’m not complaining or saying that everybody should build their own cars, I’m just saying that I do and that’s what I enjoy. As far as me not being out in 5 years, life gets in the way sometimes. I suffered a minor stroke just 5 weeks after moving to PA in Nov 04 which left me partially blind. After thousands of dollars in medical bills followed by 8 months out of work, my first year here was very difficult to say the least. It took close to 3 years to get all my things to PA from NH. I would like to race now but first I have to build another garage or a better plan is to buy an enclosed trailer, right now you couldn’t get a piece of paper between the two cars or the garage. After I get a new roof on my house and a new tow vehicle, I’ll be looking for that enclosed trailer. At 55 I have to take care of the priorities first, and fun second. I did race my Sport Fury non stop, uninterrupted from May 71 till Aug 2004 (33 years) attending close to 100 races a year back in the seventies so I don’t consider myself a bench racer, I just need a little more time, Paul.
