      Wild in WI made some nice stuff until a couple years ago... Mods and LM.

      Was Jimmy Mars mentioned? There's also 28 Specials from Minnesota... Nick Anvelink has built a few of his design in Navarino, WI.

        Word on the street is Mark Richards took some laps in Bronson's car last night for the first time in about 15 years.

          Is Mars different than a MB?

            No MB stands for Mars Brothers.

              I think Shaw, who specializes in Mod's, still makes a Late Model chassis.

                  MB stood for Mars/Birkhofer, not Mars brothers. Till whatever happened with Jimmy and Brian.
                  Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                    I don't believe so, he has been running a Rocket XR1 this season.

                        it all starts with the chassis getting the right tubing with built in flex and they are not giving it away this is the same tubing they use in NHRA. so lets say we could turn the page back and make it mandatory they all run full frames to which late model racing was meant to be and cut some cost and still be able to sit low to ground with today`s technology, and run wet or dry tracks i can`t if it would make racing better or not but more competitive yes.

                          Docol is better at separating racer from wallet than racer from racer. Other than manufacturing tolerances, there is no science to make it better.

                              I got a hold to a piece a while back , it is suppose to be easier to weld than moly , but i couldn't tell the difference , they say price is coming down though , i did notice that in the bender , if you bend an equal size of moly to 90 deg , it will spring back 8 to 10 deg and the docol would almost stay , which tells me the molly can stand more flex , im no metallurgist so this is just a crude observations.......

                                Moly has a higher yield point then, or flatter yield curve.
