How many guys go and take advantage of the practice time before the season starts? Most tracks have these coming up. Just wondered.

we try to hit Lawrenceburg's to simply shove the car off to see if anything leaks or falls off of the car. Then we load it up and go home.

Vincent if you are coming from sports car racing like you said and jumping into a sprint car for the first time you need to go.Seat time is the most valuable thing.Besides that you do need to shove it off and make sure everything is ok and nothing was accidently left loose or there is a problem with something.It boils down to seat time,seat time,seat time.And last but not least seat time.

:thumbWe usually try to hit at least on practice before the first race to shake things down and knock the rust off. April can't get here fast enough!!!!1
