After 5 races 2009

This is my first blog of the season. Been busy with the racecar.
This winter we bought a new chassis, engine, wiring, rear end housing,just about all new car. We spent a lot of time setting it up, painting everything, switching over all the parts from the old chassis. We had a few glitches like the clutch issue, and the shifter, but all in all I think the car itself is going quite well.
Evan has been doing awesome on the track and off, with a 4th place in the standings, a 2nd, a 3rd, and 3 6th place finishes. He has brought the car in with minimal repairs needed, enabling me to work on maintenance and setup. So far, so good.
We are ready I think to make some changes to help Evan go faster. Wiscasset is next on the schedule. He has experience at this track, some good some not so good. I'm going to work hard to put the best setup in the car, hopefully we get an ounce of luck and get our first win in Legends soon. All for now, Todd
