Race Preparation

My philosophy: Work in the workshop... and race on the racetrack. Part of my basic philosophy towards Club Racing has been that although it's amateur racing, the race car doesn't know that, nor does it care. One hundred fifteen mph going into turn 2 at Moroso, setting up to go over "Madness" at Mid-Ohio, or coming onto the front straight at Roebling Road - the moment is real, the equipment needs to be right. If there are weaknesses, you can be sure that things will fail at the absolute worst time, and broken equipment, whether it be crash related or mechanical failure, is NEVER good. My approach to racing isn't unique; it's based on simple common sense and established principles and workshop  procedures. I recognize the need in a successful racing program for things to be right, and I try to do each job properly. Give me a call if you would like to discuss any aspect of your racing program.
