Here are a few things Ive done over the years....Should make sense out of "Slidewayz"
Ok, so, here it goes....
I totally dig all things mechanical. Here is a sort of quick run down of my past, present and probably future projects.
Past
One of my first Hobby Stocks over 20 years ago...breaking the track record
A few years later, I moved to a different class. Designed and built this IMCA style modified entirely myself. Did pretty good considering it had the same motor as the Camaro above.
Then a few guys and myself started a retro racing class of open wheel dirt cars that payed homage to cars that were run in the late 60s. Here is the chassis that I built
And the finished car. (which oh by the way still had that same small block that was in that Camaro above...That motor went 7 seasons of racing without a rebuild)
And the last two racecars I built and raced.
And somewhere in the middle there my son and I built this Camaro and tried our hand at Autocrossing.
Racing has always been huge to me, since I was at least 6 years old its all I wanted to do in some form...Thankfully I got to and was very successful at it, winning a third of the Main Events I have entered (nearly 40 Main Event Wins) and two track championships.
I have bent up and welded up the roll cages on all of my racecars, did all the paint and lettering and did all the sheet metal and engine work. One of my biggest accomplishments is that I have built 7 racecars in the 20+ years I raced, of those 7, I belive 5 are still racing today, and of those 5, 4 went on to win Track Championships with their next owner. Its quite a passion, though the wife calls it an obsession.
More to come....
