    Default Engine Machine Work - Who to use?

    Now that the off season is upon us and I succesfully completed my first season, my quest for power has started! Who do you use/trust to do your engine machine work? I don't want to take it to the average shop down the street unless I have some good references for them...

    Bill, before you can GO you must be able to STOP. Why don't you contact the FAST Michigan Saturn driver about who does his work. It's aa long shot but it never hurts to ask.

    Have Fun
    David

    ps: By padocking with Ben & you I have the urge to change my car to a ITA/7.

    David:

    Stopping problem is already under control. Next time you see me, I'll be carrying two spares...

    I know who the fast Saturn drivers use. I can't afford them. I'm hoping to do some of the work myself and get some decent power.

    And, don't bother coming over to ITA/7. We wouldn't want to see you finishing last...

    Now that's a little mean Bill. David can finish in front of you and behind me any day. Tee hee hee, this is fun!

    And David, I have some footage of your brake problem on that second qualifying run. Except it looks like it's on the right side to me? If you've got a high speed connection I could make it downloadable for ya. Just let me know!

    Well, we'll just have to see about that!

    Keep it up, Ben. I need the inspiration to drop that 20# from me!

    Yeah, but even if I finish in 3rd and your finish in 1st, I'll still be above you on the podium!!

    When does racing season begin again?

    Ben, we should plan a day at the indoor cart track in Bloomington (I think that's where it is). You, me, and John, and the women folk if they want. Neck collars and helmets are required at the track I'm thinking of and it should would help get the speed fix over the winter!

    (Am I hijacking my own thread?)

    Sure, but who cares, it's all yours!

    I've been going to prokartindoors over in Savage. I'm thinking of joining a league or competing in some enduros to keep my edge. I was finally able to get fast lap of the day a bit back. Yee haw! Of course they hadn't posted a fastest lap yet and I had to ask for them to put it up, but it still counts! I was only .10 off the record so give me a break! For some of the enduro's you need a co-driver. What do you say about that!
