Default budget racing, 93 caprice

this is my 93 caprice i picked up for $600 to race in the enduro class at the local 1/4 mile oval.


with just the addition of some saftey equipment...


the cars ready to go

first race went pritty good. i made it 50 something out of 75 laps before the car died and stater wouln't engage the flywheel. 27 cars actually died before i did.

new starter, second race, car died as i was pulling onto the track.

here is where im at


pulling more weight from this pig



keep in mind ive never raced before, or worked on a "race car" if you can call it that. once i get the a/c drained ill pull the heater/ac box and a/c system and ill build a new dash from aluminum.
