I realize everyone nuts and bolts and checks the normal things on a race car like we all have been taught over the years. But the lack of parts failures from the touring guys who run as much as they do is crazy. Is it just as simple as putting new stuff on all the time? Has anyone traveled much with these teams to understand the secrets and how its done. Take Pierce or Erb for instance, who race more than anyone on the planet and have as small a crew of most teams. Night after night, the traveling, cleaning up car, and tire work is enough for a normal team, now add in motor maintenance, bolting, shocks, set ups, and what not and somehow remain successful with minimal parts failures. One of the biggest untold stories to me has always been not how Erb as been close crew-less forever but how well he does and how everything from motor to axles, to shocks never seem to fail him. Just a beyond interesting thing to me. For instance do they run a rack for so long and just sell it, because most guys seem to wait til the night it goes bad? Do they replace entire front suspension over one wheel hit? Do they throw away everything after a really rough track?
