I wanted to share a couple of pictures of our new car.  This car would not have even been possible without the help of a lot of new associate sponsors and very good friends.  I have learned that you really find out who your friends are in a time of need and many of them have really stepped up to help us get our car in race ready condition.  If any of you were in Albany, you know exactly what I mean.  There were very few parts that were salvaged from the old car but this one is a much nicer car and was built to be easily updated to Outlaw specs.  We are very proud of the car and the pictures actually do the paint on the car no justice.  Our new paint shop did and excellent job or so I think and I have never seen a paint job like this one.  It really just needs to be seen to be appreciated.

We would sincerely like to thank the following people for helping us get our car ready and I hope that we will be able to make some more ORSCA races this year to help promote their shops and the talent that they and hard work they have put into this car.  We will be running the car locally for the most part of 2006 until all of the new car bugs are worked out as we are basically starting out with a completely new car.  I don't think that there was one part that was left untouched during this new build. 

Thaks go out to all of our Sponsors for all that they have done for us.

Of course last but not least none of this would have been possible without my wife, Joy and daughter Brooklyn Hancock and the best crew chief and friend that a team could have Curtis Dupree.  These are the people that make racing a possibility for us and I would simply be lost without them and probably be back playing golf instead of racing. 

We had hoped to be able to step back up to Outlaw as you can see the front of the car was built with that in mind (It is still legal for L/S though according to the rule book) unfortunately; we have just not found the right partner as of now.  We have had a lot of people call and email all showing a lot of interest but nothing has been finalized because the average person just simply doesn't realize the expense involved with this type of racing.

I hope that you enjoy the pictures of the new car.  It was definitely a labor of love and I hope all of the remaining parts come in this week including the new wheels, wing, and a few other related parts so that we can have it completely finished and possibly out for testing this weekend.

Good Luck to all of the ORSCA racers in the upcoming events and we really miss being out there with all of our new friends and racing family!

Try this link.  I have no idea why they are not showing up.  I have them saved as JPEGS.

Let me know if these pics come through

Thanks
