Do you sticker your unsponsored race car?

Today was an interesting day. Pulled the parachute on the street for testing and managed to do it right in front of a cop that was heading in the opposite direction. They stopped and made a u-turn, but in the end never came and pulled me over. My karma bank of luck took a hit today.

Chute pull went well, so mission complete.

Pulled the pin:

Pumped up the co2 for the release handle:

Chute deployment snapshot:

Made it home and started packing the chute:

All repacked and ready to go again:

I am not a youtube expert and cant edit pics or videos for shit but here you go:

Do you sticker your unsponsored race car?

Im a no sticker guy. And I only had one sponsor. So we made a magnetic quarter panel ad for their shop. I would slap it on both sides of the car while racing. And then slap it on the trailer when not racing.

Also a good idea!

I just put the stickers on a frame in the garage. Missing a few. No sponsors.

 

[Strokerswild]

My stickers go on the beer fridges. And parts washer. And racking. And shelving....

Put some time into the pit bike. It hasn't run in a couple years, but is all set to terrorize the neighborhood and the drag strip pit area.

I ordered BMR adj camber arms a while back and they are indefinitely backordered, so I am going to try the UPRs:

 

[turnswrench]

Camber arms are in and the car is back on the ground. Getting some tune revisions from Rob. Hoping to get some more street time soon.

Having some hard starting issues, trying to get it sorted out. Note this is an screenshot from a video and not a video.

Got the new fuel system today. Supported a local shop that had one for sale:

In with the triple pump, out with the twin pump:

-10an feed on the new system vs -8an on the previous kit:

What it looks like working around the cage and race seats:

Got the entire twin pump system removed and is drying out to be ready to ship.

Details on the new kit:
- Fore Level 2
- 274 primary pump
- 285 twin secondaries
- FC3 controller with hobbs activation switch
- -10an feed, -8an return
- 128mm stainless filter

Should have the car up and running in a few days depending how busy work gets. Stay tuned.

what is the local shop name?

Better yet. Post what all that shit cost. I always joke with my wife about my past race cars. How do you make a million dollars with a race car???

Start with 10 million. Keep up the good work my man. I’m going to live vicariously thru this thread for a while.

Today is beautiful here in MN. We have snow in the forecast for tmrw and a high of 37. Making good use of the day by taking a cruise and picking up beer:
