It would be foolish to put that kind of money, for the payback, even with inflation, you can still build an old Honda, with good reliable parts, for under $2500.00, besides, race engines are a lot like wives, they do require some attention once in a while. As far as electronics, what does that have to do with anything, my philosophy has always been KISS. We don't have 3 days at a race track to dial things in, we are a filler division, we come, we race, we go home, next time, different race track. I never did like "stock" engine rules, just like go-karting, the stock classes were always the most expensive, and where the most cheating took place, and the most tension. I'll leave you to "your" issues, I just didn't want the uninformed thinking that TQ racing was more expensive than the mini-sprint. Bob
Any kind of racing is expensive. Even getting to the track and buying tickets for the grand stands and popcorn is expensive. I think Andy was talking about full midgets.

I made a small fortune racing, sure wish I had my large fortune back.


126 responses over 5000 hits a kings ransom in HY-JACKS and Striker still ain't got no response. What is this board coming to.

Just a good place to let off steam.
