I hear you. For me, it's more about these factors:
- Getting out of work and having enough time to get there, grab something to eat, and be ready to race. Sometimes I cut it close.
- I don't like messing with the car at the track - especially on a faster paced weeknight. When everything is running smoothly, I rarely make any adjustments. It makes me less competitive for sure, but I usually (knocking on all wood around me) have a trouble-free night and rarely drop out of a race. If it isn't broke, I don't fix it.
- By the time my last main and marshaling are starting, I'm packed and ready to go. It takes me over an hour to get home (sometimes more than 2 hours), so the last thing I want to do is take more time to pull the motor and pinion out. I marshal and run as quickly as possible.
- $45 for me AND another $45 for Justin.
- I run my touring car at other tracks. I don't want to take it apart for each place when it's running well.
Believe me - I know how great this spec motor thing is for so many reasons. It just doesn't work for me and I'd rather not do all that wrenching at the track. I like doing it at home, but at the track I like to charge, drive, watch races, and BS with everyone. I don't even want to think about a stripped spur because I set the mesh wrong or didn't tighten a motor screw properly. I'm just hoping over the next few weeks that others are in the same situation because I really don't want to do this. I may actually use the old TC3 for spec because at least I can get the motor in and out very quickly on that car - much quicker than I could with the XRay - if I am not able to run traditional 17.5. Will see what happens tonight. I may try it because I hate running only one class, but I'd certainly rather run USGT and anything else that I don't have to switch a motor to run.
See you later!
