Howdy Chumps! (As in ChumpCar!)
The Homestead race has been moved to July 3rd and now a single day, 12 Hour enduro on Saturday! Still plenty of seat time, day and night racing!! This will be a great time to shake down your ChumpCars and get the Novice School out of the way before Sebring in September!!

If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough.

C'mon Lee, leave Martin at the Winghouse and head down there. Moneyshot, you signed up for Homestead yet now since the date changed?

The VIR race turned out well from all accounts, great racing, killer weather, just an all around good weekend. The Cup guys are even getting into to ChumpCar now, Tony Stewart brought 3 cars and 19 crew members to drive and crew them, he said he had a blast and will be back...... How cool is that!
By the way his cars sucked and they finished toward the bottom.

MONEY$HOT MOTORSPORTS We are on track with the car and cant believe we leave for our first race in 2 weeks. The lude and lascivious Prelude is getting exhaust today for the 2nd time and new front, lower ball joints........... Paint on Monday and a bunch of minor finish items and were good to go. I'll post some pics of this pavement pounding beast when the paint is done.

Well the old saying that you cant buff a turd has been proven wrong yet again....... The Money$hot Lude is race ready and we are locked and loaded, heading for Nashville today at high noon. The race is a grueling 14 hours and team Money$hot is ready for the challenge or so we hope. Should be a great weekend and I want to thank everyone for their support through the long task of creating this beast of a race car. I'll post results and pixs when we get back.

I learned quite a bit at the Stevie Wonder 500 at Nashville this weekend.... First thing I learned was if you cant see it you cant avoid it. second is visibility is somewhat important third never ever use a AEM cold air intake that pulls the air from in front of the right front tire.
Things were going great and I was totally amazed at the cars handling, braking and power. I went from 15th to 5 in less than 20 laps and was hunting the leaders when I realized I couldn't see shit, I mean nothin and there were freakin rivers all over the course. I finally got in water deep enough and the Lude swallowed a shit load and blew a rod through the block..... game over! Motor should be repaired in the next sew weeks and then its off to Texas Motor Speedway for 24 hours of mayhem. Yeah it was disappointing but we built a really really good car and its going to get even better so all is not lost.

Hey Gray Goose On a more serious note, from what I have heard you guys are a force to contend with I would realy like to see you guys in action. But, I live 2.7 hours from Sebring and there are three events coming up. Normaly I attend the Fall Classic but it has been switched to the end of October. I have inventory that month (I may have to do some severe blowing to make that one). September is Redline Time Attack, Something new that I would realy like to check out and then there is Chump Car in August. Now I don't now if you can see my problem, but thats a lot of booze to haul around. I am Going to Chump Car, but I do have a few questions.
#1 Is it full track?
#2 Will there be full camping for us mass?
#3 Will there be photos of the event with that blurry thing over your privates?

Hi Maxx, Sebring is Sept. 25th and 6th but to answer we will be running the Green Park Club course, not sure about camping but one would think its OK but will find out for ya.......... There's some silly rule about having no exposed genitalia while on track so the blurry spot wont be needed.

Camping will be allowed for the Sebring ChumpCar race, both tent and RV but as usual no hookups for the RV's........ The Lude is about done at this point and the motor seems stronger than before I made it drink to much water. We have a test day at a private road course called ERS in Starke Florida on the 26th of June and then Homestead on July 3rd for 12 hours of madness..... Man its going to be hotter than hell!!!!!
