Just a few suggestions for our new competitors. Sprint cars are different from what you were driving before . They do not need to be overdriven. If you are sawing the wheels and stabbing the gas, there is something wrong with your racecar . You can`t race someone clean if you are out of control . If you are out of control you will not gain respect from other racers. Without respect you won`t make any friends. Without friends you will not learn how to make your car driveable . Vicious circle. Unless you are some kind of millionare that can keep replacing all you are tearing up , you will not last very long. The glory and success you were dreaming of when you bought your machine will never happen.
Above all if you do make a bone head move and flat run over someone, be a man and accept responsibility for your actions. Sure you will get yelled at and maybe your heritage will be questioned , but it will most likely end right there .
You don`t want that guy to remember you while you are in a transfer spot at a good paying race with a nerf that ends your night .

I just want to add to this great thread. Young guys remember this , your car has two pedals.Sometimes use the one on the left, it isn't always about the throttle.
