Ledgend raceing. My bud and I got an overall second for the year at our home track.

It took me all season to learn how to set that darn motorcycle engine up and make it run strong, like 10.5 at the end of the straights. And the suspension on circle tracks, gesh, that's a whole new ball game and I am not sure I really understand yet. But it goes. Driver is 70 years young so he can not really compete with the hot shots, but we can make sure the car does.

Good to hear you are staying out of trouble....car racing won't leave you any time. Trust me--I know.

And many older Legends (and Dwarfs) use a Sprite-based rear axle...so it sorta has a British connection.

We have several Legends race at our EMRA races all the time. They are actually decent road-racing cars. We usually run them with the open wheel guys and they have a great time.

Here's one of the EMRA regulars from a few months ago at Pocono:

As delivered yep. Think we have 6 different rear end gears. What a pain to change.
