Its good to be back off the road. I am now trying to build/finalize my first modified car to hopefully get it to Atlanta for the October WIRL race. (Still fuming over three stock cars I destroyed through improper drilling last month)
Quick question. Are you guys running "three wheelers" on your extended, modified cars? Plus, not asking you to give away any competitive secrets, just wondered if anyone would share their findings on lubes that work best with a 40 foot track?
You guys have been building some awesome cars. Serves as a great inspiration to a beginning builder like myself who wants to improve.

Frank, thanks so much for your offer. I will definitely give you a call this week. Mainly concerned with alignment, weight distribution, and lubricant success for an extended wheel car on a 40 foot track.
It is so encouraging to see a top tier competitor like yourself willing to share ideas! Thanks again and good luck in your next race.

I meant JohnNC. I sent him a PM the day after he posted his help thread and as near as I can tell he has not looked at it yet.

WW, Thanks for the pm. I finally got it. I must be blind, I had not even noticed the pm alert! Good tips. Thanks for being so open and helpful. Best of luck in your future races. After this Derby season, I am going to start talking smack (just a litle) and maybe start challenging some other states/regions to a showdown. There seems to be a lot of racers from the mid-west and we have a good many here in Carolina. I have got to get Pinewood Performance, I am still not happy about the outcome of the Ohio State- N.C. State football games the past two years. LOL. Thanks again.
