  6. In the case of tps and dwarf,s they are a ton cheaper .but i still love the trucks ..i know this last tps race was down on cars ..mainly blown or broken motors kept some from making it ..one i know is totaled ...i dont see a problem with running special shows for any class . just got to figure out why they have not shown .i would love to move my son up to supers he would love that ..just have a ton of parts to buy to move it up .TIRES .SPRINGS .MOTOR .TRANS ITS AUTO .or sell this new car and buy one more closer to rules ..either way it will cost ...as far as rule changes .thing s come along that were missed in the rules meeting that need to be attended to ..if more than half your field misunderstood a rule if there is a rule when it is not much of a performance issue .its better to fix it in the off season and not make em do it during the season that is with every track ......... john i know what you mean about left side weight rule ..tps has it figured out .one of our cars has 58.left the other runs 55 ...you can feel it ..

  17. i remember david horton driveing his street legal vw buggy out to there and rolled it one night in turn three and four ,and drove it home later that night ..funny ..we talked aboult that at cc not long ago //...i lost my hood comeing out of turn one ..think the pit crew forgot to put the pins on it .we ran over that hood lap after lap i ran over too .... after the race they brought it back to me ..not any damage other than tires marks and mud ..so i put it back on and pinned it ...that shows just how soft a track riverside was ... or muddy .........
  18. Is that little red bug who i think it is?...i can't quite make out the number well dont see a pic ...but only one person with a little red car .... miss old sexy grandpa ....... the cars looked good back then cuz drivers then had respect for one another ..
  19. smelt like septic runoff yep..i know i could not keep the paint on my car ..........but before it was a dirt track for cars .. it was a dirt bike track .and a mud track at one time ......
  20. that was one ugly bug you had ..wedge typ .. . i think john gun was racen with yah back then ..and both sullivan boys ... riverside had to many land owners from what i remember .and some wanted it back ..or more money ..if i heard right ....first track i ever turned a lap on .. .man they had alot of cars there ..... remember crazy james with his pink camero ..... darrel philps . and others i cant name right now ...

  23. my first laps in a racecar were at riverside ..in 1984 .....i raced six weekends towards the end of season .... other than my first race i ran .i finished third racen 13 other cars ..that was the best finish i got .the others i raced ...were not so good ..after getting hit and knocked out of some races ..found out a black car on dark clay track .didnt fit to well ...... ill get my son to add the last pic i got of me in my car ..... 68 camero ..305 bored 30 with camel hump heads ...i was told it would not run fast ..against the 358.s ..but i showed them lol..when i was on the track ofcourse .. .my fondess memorys were of don weatherspoon comeing over to this rookie and telling me ..look .lock in the rear end ..and run that damn car in second gear . peewee norrel wielded my gears for me .......i didnt know i was suppose to shift .. first gear was ok with me .up till then ...thats what got me into trouble ..i started pole but didnt like what i was feeling ..so i backed down to let everyone go past me ..that was not a good ideal at that time ..28 cars .. five of them hit me and carried me all the way down to turn one ..that ended my dirt racen ..car was junk ...slidways racen was fun ..mud cleaning and ball joint replacements every week wasnt ..i never raced on dirt again ....
