I don't understand how dry cleaning works

    Nomex, it's a Sparco suit.

    Yeah I won't go through this again. It'll get taken out of my bag and hung up as soon as I get home.

    You guys need a woman to take care of things. They don't screw up their shit like this.

    until someone else does screw it up and then you have no one to blame but yourself. As the saying goes, if you want something done right, do it yourself :)

    A woman was a good part of the reason why I quit dirt racing way back when.

    I won't continue to beat myself up over this, remember to hang it up and get on with my life. Won't bring it up at random unrelated times just because I'm mad.

    Don't get me wrong I'd like the right girl to go to the track with me, but a moldy fire suit is a small price to pay to not have the wrong one around.

    I could be wrong but I think dry cleaning uses flammable chemicals. Mig not be a good thing to use on a fire suit.

    That cage needs more bars near your shoulders before you catch a tire in the helmet.

    So you are driving a Johnny Murdock car. I know him from way back. We used to run SMRS with him. I always liked his designs. Have you seen his "Fueler" car?

    This is one of my pop's cars.

    Bishop chassis with a Esslinger engine. 400HP at the wheels, and 850lbs without ballast. One hell of a car. It was the Bishop house call so it has some really cool one off parts. It even has an aluminum driveshaft. It is a total badass.

  10. Never thought about that. Do you have to do another empty load afterwards to get the vinegar smell out?

    No, the rinse cycle will take care of it.

    A cup of chlorine bleach will do the same thing. Chlorine bleach kills mold on everything - clothes, decks, siding, walls, etc.

    I've seen a picture of it. Didn't know the guy until I started driving his stuff.

    Not a total fan of the stub nose look, but I blasted a concrete barrier with one of his cars earlier this season and all it took was a front bumper(well, axle, wheel/tire, shocks, radius rods) but no frame damage. Would have hurt a normal car.

    Your dad's car does indeed look badass. The car I'm driving has an Ecotech, so quite down on power to a National Midget.

    Yeah, the ecotech is down to the national stuff. But they get around pretty good on the smaller tracks. If the track is really dry slick then they can hold their own decent enough.
