Yes we are still racing! This year has been no exception as to how hard of work racing is, and a constant reminder that money is an issue. I can't believe how much things have changed in racing over the years for us short track Saturday night racers. Just for us to do one weekend of racing just here locally it costs us about $900.00 and we are one of the poorest teams racing our series. It kills me to know that most of these guys are spending easily double that! Not to mention renting the track, paying guys big money to come teach them about set ups on their car.
Seriously where did real competition go? Instead it all comes down to the amount of money you are willing to throw at it. It breaks my heart to see how hard Joe works to get to the track and at the end of the day it comes down to being out dollared. He puts all that he is into his passion of racing and it hurts to see him crushed cause we just don't have the money it takes to go out there to test and make sure all of our stuff is right on the money with no other problems.
So if you know of anyone looking to sponsor a car... It is great advertisement for real. Let me know! Go team 73u!
