    [quote=MIKEY CHILDRESS;948403]Louis we pay our prep guy they dont give up there time for free. Truck was bare chassis prep ,fuel,entry,prep,hotels,25 tickets for friends and family, test time, damage to the truck easy 8k plus our owner throws one hell of a party![/quote

    Wow 8k to 9k. Seems like you get ripped off because our team does just about the same list of things minus the party (unless we win) for alot less money. I don't give up my time for free either. Wanna pay me to prep your truck, the setup might be a little better next time.

    mikey, we figure after we put a new fender on and get it painted we will be into the TORC race about $2,800, for all costs including the whole new spring setup

    We tested at another track thinking that it would be some what the same. Thats the reason we missed our set up. We rented that track along with the water truck etc thats what added to our cost for this race. Our prep guy does a great job the truck never fails. Setup was my issue I missed the setup not our prep guy I tried something and it worked great at the track we tested at.
    I heard it on RDC so its has to be true!

    Did you include the blowing dirt & sand option at your test track?

    If not, could have greatly affected your test set up calculations!

    I'm sure Louis calculated that factor into his setup.

    Great Job Louis, Triple X Posse & Agave Motorsports on your 2009 TORC Trophylite Shortcourse win !!!

    Point is, both series are doing just fine and will only get better.

    i agree......people need to stop taking digs at both series
