No Budget Racing

Well had a eventful weekend at the Neil Montgomery memorial weekend. Unfortunately rain canceled Thursday night practice and the race schedule Friday night. Saturday it stayed dry and we were able to get full race schedule in!. In a last minute twist I was asked to drive the famed 25 otra car as George wasn’t able to from a hurt back helping another racer

It was a hectic night with the dual otra 25lap mains, i had to start last as never having run in the class before, but was able to run as high as 2nd and finish 3rd in both mains! Then run my 25lap non wing sprint main finishing 5th, but I’d would do it again for sure!

A bit late but finally got the new ministock out for its first race. Started out a bit rough with a blown head gasket on its very first few laps and a leaking engine breather

Luckily my dad was coming up for the races sat morning and I was able to find one head gasket in Duncan for him to stop in a pickup on the way

Changed out the head gasket, made 2nd practice session and all seemed to be fixed. Missed qualifying as I forgot to fuel up the car..

Started last in the main and ended up 4th a photo finish for 3rd .

Sunday went a bit smoother. Starter went out after qualifying, so had to push start the car rest of the night won heat race and finished 2nd in the main. Solid showing for a unfinished car

Been gettin lots done on the car lately. Finished strut mounts then full disassembled for Chassis paint. tins are painted. And now starting the assembly.

Engine is cleaned up and re assembled now to start the hyd slave conversion.

Start wiring this week

Finally starting to look like a racecar again
