Thumbs up

Smoked- I used to drop by Toys about once a week looking for bill Elliott diecasts, but since they rearranged it there doesn't seem to be much. As far as Sprints go, it's alot of work! They don't have transmissions or starters, but do have 8 throttle plates and a "pill" to control the flow of alcohol. Suspension set up is where it's all at. A weak car that's set up right for the track conditions will smoke a rocket that's too loose or too tight. Also, keep in mind those suckers aren't cheap to maintain. The trick is to grab a few good sponsors for things like fuel and tires. Find out who your friend works for and let me know. Tell him you met someone who crews for Porter (88).

Take care
