Hi,

My name is Jerry
I am a big fan of Open wheel. I had a friend in MISS ( HOBO racing ) Melvin Holcombe who I kind of followed how he did. He was the only local I knew who raced Sprint. He ran two cars in the V8 305 cid limit class. He ran every Weekend just about in West Memphis Ark.

I am a drag racer myself and Live in Brownsburg, IN.

I run a forum for Drag racers and all forms of racing, Called

Indy Racing Scene.com
( shameless plug, we're small and need all the traffic we can get! :D)

I go by JS racing over there and every forum I am associated with basiclly.

I do know Bill, exchanged a few emails with him. Chuay of Speed Service hooked me up with him and he is a first class guy. He gave me somne suggestions for my site.

I also have a LINK to This site on my site, mainly because this is a first class open wheel forum and Bill is good people.

if any of you folks like drag racing also, come resgister. I dont post here much but I do check this board often and plan to go to some Open wheel events. My neighbors son drives a mini sprint so I get the " low down" from him and Chuay on things going round. :Steer

If I can ever help any of you guys dont hesitate to ask me.

Thanks guys and Y'all be Safe out there! :checkered:

Re: New here
 

Welcome to the board Jerry.Hope you enjoy it.We are all just used to turning left after going like h$#@.Instead of just going like h$#@ in a straight line we need to get you to turn left.
