...I only recently got into NASCAR...don't know all the rules yet, so I can't really start a very relevant discussion here! Maybe a conversation about sports art would get some of you talking?? I'm a collector. My latest addition is actually a NASCAR print by an artist named Rick Rush (www.rickrushart.com). It's really awesome and by far my favorite. Anyone else collect?

Over eighty cars made the trek to Enid Speedway Park to battle in the 13th annual $10,000 to win Street Stock Nationals. A near full house was on hand to witness the final leg of the three-day event Sunday as some of the fastest cars in the nation made their final bids for the big money purse. Blackwell hot shoe Chad McNamara found track conditions to his liking, as he made track history and became the first three-time winner to take home the huge payday aboard his IES Raglin/Ponca Machine sponsored ride. McNamara won this event, as well as in 2005 and 2006, in the car he built in 2003. “The track rubbered up and it was fast but hard on engines and tires. Luck was on our side. My right rear tire went flat when I pulled into the barn,” said McNamara. “Winning this for the third time is an awesome feeling. It is a lot of work but it really paid off today and this car is for sale.” Competition was fast and furious in the 50-lap main event with three past champions starting in the first five rows. Jarrod Reimer exploded off the pole and showed the way. Defending champion Chris Dawson went in hot pursuit, and it was a heated battle for several laps with Dawson making a low charge onto the point in lap six. But all that effort was for naught as Travis Johnson stalled at the top of turn four and put the track under caution. Reimer resumed the lead on the restart only to see another yellow flag wave as Gary Langworthy and Dustin Allen crashed on the back straight. Reimer headed up the field and boasted a strong lead when another caution waved for debris in turn two. Reimer rushed away and had command of the track when Gary Nulf blew his motor in lap 14 and brought out a further yellow. Levi McGowan, the 2003 champ, and Billy Kelly slammed into the wall on the restart and brought out a red flag. Reimer picked up where he left off but was unable to hold off the hard-charging Jerry Derr in lap 18. Derr wasted no time and sported a straight away lead in a mere two laps. Derr appeared unbeatable as he skillfully lapped his way through over half of the field by lap 35. Derr fell off the pace two laps later which saw Kip Hughes storm onto the point. Derr stopped at the top of turn three and brought out yet another caution flag. Hughes headed up the start but blew his motor coming out of turn four which saw McNamara charge onto the point. With a clear track in front of him McNamara was unstoppable and had a commanding lead when Alan Screws spun to a halt and brought out a yellow flag in lap 44. McNamara hustled away when the track went green only to see another caution wave as Phil Pearson flew off the track. McNamara headed up the field which had dwindled to 10 cars and had a straight away lead when a yellow flag flew in lap 47 as Rod Bencken came to a halt in the groove. The big money race was reduced to a two-lap shootout. McNamara show-ed the way and never looked back on his path to the checkered flag. Bud Longpine captured second, trailed by Brian Parker, Screws, and Pearson. Longpine stormed to victory in the “B” with Wesley Kruckenberg taking the win in the “C” feature. Randy Miller, Ryan Hill and Jason Keller took the wins respectively in the “D,” “E” and “F” features. Persistence paid off for Dawson as he captured the win in the Saturday night "A" feature. Billy Kelly rushed off the outside pole and headed up the early goings. A yellow flag waved in lap three when Todd Decker and Parker spun in turn three. Kelly picked up where he left off on the restart, but all that effort was for naught as Humberto Rocha came to a halt on the back straight and put the track back under caution. Kelly continued his run when the race went green with Gary Nulf hooked to his bumper like glue. Another yellow flag flew in lap eight for a three-car pile-up on the back straight. The fourth restart was a charm for Hughes as he found his way to the front. Hughes shot away from the field like a rocket and sported a 10-car length lead in a mere two laps. But Dawson found the quick way around and was challenging for the lead when James Lott hit the wall and put the track back under caution. It was a drag race on the start as Hughes and Dawson continued their heated duel. With two laps to go Dawson took command with a daring high challenge and boasted a straight away lead at the line. Hughes held onto second trailed by Nulf, Levi McGowan and Gardner. Miller posted the win in the “B” feature with Mark Mullins taking the honors in the “C.” Troy Naeger, Jesse Willard and Don Yoder captured their respective wins in the “D,” “E” and “F” features. Saturday night heat winners were McGowan, Kelly, Parker, Hughes, Joel Lane, Bobby Joe Scott, Dawson, Nulf, Gardner and Rocha. Enid Speedway Park’s next card of racing will be at 7 p.m. next Saturday.

We have heard "shoot for 18-21 degrees on the RF and 10-12 degrees on the RF". We have heard this will get you in the ball park, but no mention on rear track bar settings. Anyone go through mesuring and entered it into a program to verify the "ball park"?

Subject: PA transmissions 2008 To whom it may concern, PA transmissions are a far cry from a performance tranny. I recently had a bad experience with this company and doubt that I am the only person to have such issues with their product. I purchased a Super Streeter C4 from Mustangs Unlimited. I had the C4 in for about two months (100miles) before third gear let go. I tried all the normal fixes and nothing helped. After a call to PA, I was told to pull the tranny and ship it to them at my cost of course. During this conversation it was also brought to my attention that I would have to pay for return shipping as well. So, for a total of $500 in shipping I could get the tranny rebuilt. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that you can get a local rebuild for $350. Not only was it going to be a complete rebuild but I could get blue clutches (much better than Alto Red) all with correct end play which ended up being the issue. There was so much endplay that the 2-3 shift popped the output shaft lock ring off. This allowed the shaft to move forward and cover the fluid travel holes. There were also a few seals lying in the tranny as well as a broken drum. Did I mention that the so called heavy duty clutches were stock paper clutches? They also used plastic rings instead of steel. I even sent pictures of the failure to PA who at first seemed as though they were concerned that I had problems with the tranny. They hinted at paying me for the labor bill. I have called three times with the same answer. “It’s up to my boss now”. So, I don’t expect them to pay. They burned me and I hope that I can save others from the same trouble. In all I lost $400 not to mention my time to pull and re-install the tranny. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY.

Last month in the article about the UFR late model racing for the first time Bob said the LF tire temps were lower than the LR temps. He said he raised the rear track bar to keep the rear from out rolling the front and it evened up the left side temps. I am a little confused about what raising the track bar actually does. If you raise it you raise the rear roll center...but everyone says that when you raise the track bar you actually loosen the car. Can someone please explain in more detail why he raised the track bar and more importantly why it raise the LF temps. And why it didn't cause the car to get loose? Thanks.
