Published on February 25, 2011 By John

We don’t have a lot of video from the 2010 season. But the season was our best season by far, we started out the year red hot and after 4 races we were 2nd in points. Unfortunately we just couldn’t keep the momentum up, and had a string of bad luck throughout the last half [...]

What to do during the Off-season??

Published on January 14, 2011 By John

Every year during the off-season I’m faced with a lot of free time… A lot of that time is spent making sure our equipment is up to par for the upcoming season. And that is a very vital part of the success you might experience during the coming year, but you really do have to [...]

So we finished up the season at South Boston Speedway a couple weeks back, and most people would think that the off-season would be sent relaxing and waiting for the upcoming year.

Next race – Concord Speedway!

At our last race at Iowa Speedway the MitiGator Ford Fusion was caught up in a wreck on the opening lap. Someone missed a shift in front of us and we had no where to go and was caught up in a multi-car accident. Luckily my seat had been equipped with the MitiGator Cushioning system, [...]

Each year we make the trek out to Iowa Speedway for one of the biggest races of the year. the drive is over a 1,000 miles from our shop in Statesville, N.C. But, I have to admit the trip is always a fun one. Plus Iowa has always been a good track for our team. [...]

The choice to miss a race can be a hard one…
