WildRacer5 Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 Who is the best chassis/ car builder for the track across Texas? The only fair way would be to divide it up by track and class SAS: LM SSS / Sportsman Charger Road Runner THR: LM SS HS PS (pure stock) CCMS: Sportsman Bomber Tx thunder ROMCO: TAMS: TPS: I can't remember all the classes for all the dirt cars so some of you dirt guys will have to help me out.

marcus Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 That "HOGG" chassis seems to be doing pretty well in TAMS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazyhorse Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 T.R.C.- in all the above catagories.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truck99 Posted June 25, 2004 Report Share Posted June 25, 2004 Ditto what Crazyhorse said. Seems like Terry James can build and/or tune just about anything on 4 wheels and make it fast. Swensen seems to have the mods figured out pretty well too. cs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hobby74 Posted June 26, 2004 Report Share Posted June 26, 2004 I would have to say Ron Chambers. I belive Terry James learned from his cars when Spillar had a Chambers car and told Terry to copy it. I could be wrong though so dont yell at me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt5858 Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 John Benker built the roll cage in my hobby stock. I think John & Jarod Benker can build almost anything when it comes to racing. By the way John races the #74 TSRS Late Model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hray Posted June 29, 2004 Report Share Posted June 29, 2004 Swenson and Norrell have definitely got a handle on the TAMS cars, but no one has tried any of the fast East Coast chassis like Laughlin yet. It would be interesting to see how they compare. We've been real happy with the GARC SLM chassis, but I think any of the majors (PCR, Howe, etc) can be made fast. Lefthander has probably got the LLM (Camero stub) down. Actually, this is all academic. Any ridgid asphalt chassis will be fast with the right spring, shock, and driver combination.

hotstock74 Posted July 5, 2004 Report Share Posted July 5, 2004 The "HOGG" chassis (Norrell chassis) #1 & #2 in TAMS, also finished 1 & 2 this weekend at CCMS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Llamadog Posted July 9, 2004 Report Share Posted July 9, 2004 I think the world of Donald Long, but he, to my knowledge has not won at Mobile this year. Neither has Fast Eddie Mercer. Donald did come in 2nd at Lanier. A lot of serious racers in this area are getting Dave Mader III or Wayne Willard to build their cars. Both are very successful car builders.
