We will have another entry in this by next week. James Oneal Dodge will be mailing Jeff a check asap. I just hope we can get their project done in time, lol. Its all coming out of mine/Oneals pockets to build this thing. I haven't ask anybody for any free parts, but I have told lots of vendors/manufacturers about this deal and what it takes to be a part of it. And oddly enough, the majority of them have not been interested or wanted to help in any way. If I were a big name vendor or manufacturer, Id want my stuff on as many trucks as possible in this race. I have a feeling there will be a LOT of companies trying to get in after they see how big this is gonna be. And by then, it may be too late. I would like to mention the people that have offered us help so far. Big thanks to Dave Goerend, Bob Wagner and Geno's Garage(for Aron's truck).
Turbo Builders, we still need three turbos!!!!!!!!!! (haha, is this the right way to beg? Never done it before)
to play the other side ........ theres not to many manufactures or vendors miles long that everyone has different parts to choose from.....all the trucks are gonna have / be running the top brands already!!!!
i do think weight is also an issue..... we have a dakota that now needs to get to 6k lbs:bang:hehe:
-even my race truck needs a good bunch of weight to meet 6k
and $500 is still a good amount of money considering the costs for travel/lodging/ truck builds/ considering this economy
i plan on being there...... but it wouldnt stop me from dealling with smarty/mamau/ goerend .......... if i didnt see there names there
also - this is the first race...... if/when it gets big/ gets publicity.... people will be jumping on board like crazy
