Not sure what I'm gonna do with the 94 yet but I'm thinking something along the X275 class rules :mrgreen: .

The 94 is a pretty good find, but both are good cars. and his wife is hot! Glad you made it on.

Welcome to the site Jr... What's your name? You have a long pull to run X275 from around here, maybe you can run that new Camaro with us over in some of the MAKO races. My GF is from Newton.. Do you know Riffel and some of the other nut cases over there?

I wont run with the X275 guys but I would like to build my car along that format with the stock front and rear suspension and the small tire.

Yea I know Kurt, he put the cage in my 81, hell of a good guy and does phenominal work.

Oh, and by the way my name is Jeremy

Just joking, we all love Hitch.

Hey John, just found your site. I've been the announcer at Ozark Raceway Park for about 9 or 10 years. Still do a little bracket racing, but think this is my last year. Going to add a blower and go racing with some buddies.
