I race with my two sons. It is truly a mess keeping three nitro cars going during a race. They help with tire and body washing. And they usually marshal for me so I can get back to the pit to get to work. But my race routine is practice after practic. I clean them.change the air filters. Check and change the clutch bearings. All 3 car. Then check the set up. Tweek it as needed. Then during the heat it's normally just clean tires. Blow off cars. Check over. Then befor the main. Air filters agin. Clutch agin. Cleaning tires ect... And setup. I don't have time with 3cars to do shock oil and diff oil changes once racing starts. If something is broke I fix it. But time is my enemy. Last week I had to miss the main bc I lost a diff bearing. Didn't have time to change it. Bc had to get the other two cars ready. I see in a year I will be just wrenching and not racing but maby club stuff. .
