About $75-100.

If Vic's stuff was so good, Scott would've continued to run it. When you have a custom trophy made that says "The Hick Ville Engine Swap Champion- Tommy Hicks", that should tell you everything...

I remember when Scott's lift bar broke, and Birky got lucky! Still, he had to be close enough, not taking too much away from him.

There's no "bad batch of a certain component" anymore. Valve springs is a maybe, but that can/should be caught before any repeated disasters. With today's valve spring tech, and the fact that...

If it's not obvious, lw82 is one of the aforementioned Cody's. I remember seeing that name logged in to 4m on a certain computer, to the left of a certain TV, on a certain counter, in a certain shop...

Except for one engine builder lost 6-7 engines at one race! When there was only what, 5 or 6 cars running that builder's stuff?

Haha, well sometimes I was paid, sometimes I wasn't. That wasn't Scott's fault exactly, moreso the people around him. (at the time).

As far as Oshkosh and VanHool (the bus company), neither will hire nearly as many employees as originally planned. VanHool has walked back their timeline and intended utilization of this plant, and...

Except for that part about Bruce and Blankenship getting pissed off and stealing a new front-end design from Scott, taking it to Rocket to be known as the "Orange" front end. If that dude walked on...

Unfortunately, I think you know why such a correction factor may have been used. It's the old SAE J:417 standard. "People standing around watching, load it hard on the upswing, apply unrealistic...

Perfect time to organize the bolt bin!

I'm sure there's plenty of national drivers looking forward to nervously lapping him...

I'd like to buy a "W" Pat... At least you didn't put a "N"!

That Liquor Store had been sponsoring Bloomer for, oh, 20 years or so lol... At least in some fashion, it ain't owned by your "average Joe"!

Well, I say it like this... I have ZERO DOUBT in my mind that Larry has the capacity to develop and maintain one of the best engine programs in the country. He has the knowledge, talent and...

Exactly. I really hope the best for them, but unless there has been a miraculous change in the last few months, I doubt it. Where did you hear that quote, by chance? I heard it 4 years ago, so if...

They do share the same building, and I'm pretty sure Sanford owns it and they lease their side from him. That's what I was told, anyhow.

I'll take bets of any amount that this deal won't last through Speedweeks 2020. Anyone remember Jimmy's season with Custom under the hood? I think it was 2016?

Sadly, I don't believe so. The thing is, you don't need to be "up on technology" as much as you might think. The knowledge is readily available to anyone willing to look for it. Problem is, people...

This sounds like a great idea... Except for the Cruz Pedregon part. I bet people here will say "oh he's a great guy", and to that I'd say... Well, that proves you don't know him. I can't imgaine...

It'd be interesting to know where you heard that, as the story around the campfire is exactly the opposite. Here's a challenge- find a video of Brandon pulling a bonehead move in a race car. He may...

It's Billy Ogle.

Sorry to skew the view here, but nearly none of the better preps use any aromatic solvents anymore (benzene, toluene etc). They have their place in very limited scenarios, but not scenarios you'll...

. Heh, never messed with Karts. So let's say you ran a big ol 36x17.5x16 Top Fuel tire at 4lbs on the right rear at Eldora. You would have a ton of drag, and a ton LESS grip. Drag is independent...

Well you asked. The goal of treating a tire is to--- increase surface area, shed contaminates (dirt/mud), maintain consistency in temperature, increase plasticity, wear evenly, and REDUCE rolling...
