hi

I joined up last week after hearing some glowing recommendations from other FBody owners, so I thought I'd introduce myself!

I race 1/2 mile oval tracks and just moved up to a real racing class from the quasi-demo derby class I used to be in. I thought I'd do something different and used a 4th gen FBody. Getting this car setup has been a challenge, since noone else races a car even kind of like mine at our track, so I've had to forge my own way with the setup. Anyway, heres a pic of the car:

and check the link in my sig for more pictures of that car and my other cars (even the jump car gets a page!)



I look forward to contributing what little I know about 4th gens and absorbing all I can!

btw, any other circle track racers on here?

Well, my car isn't driven on the dirt, but it's set up using a lot of dirt track components. Dirt tracks are big around here, and road racing venues aren't. So, all the race shops cater to dirt track guys. That means that I get to buy dirt track stuff and make it fit my car.

Welcome! It's always nice to get another perspective on the old problems. Perhaps you can attack something form a different angle and we can solve some of them!
