Witchdoctor Motorsports again goes for the Grassroots Motorsports ULTIMATE TRACK CAR CHALLENGE! Same class as 2007: Independent Study, Varsity.
Sponsors: Vorshlag Motorsports, Wade's Garage and hopefully AST by then!!
2009 - VIR LONG COURSE!
The entry? SCRATCHER!
In 2007 we didnt get the result we wanted, but were very pleased with the overall package. In the VERY FIRST SESSION we put down a time that would have been good for SECOND PLACE in Independent Study - Varsity! Unfortunately, first session times only gave you a grid spot and we had issues in the other sessions...but hey, it was Scratcher's first time out and we knew there could be issues.
2008 - I had a work conflict that was unavoidable and could not make the event.
BUT...
2009 - PLEASE VOTE FOR US!!
This is not some 'daddy-paid-for-it-and-it-was-expensive!' ride. I bought it as un unfinished project and did the rest in my garage with help from my buddies. See the buildup below. This is as grassroots as a tube car can be!!
