Yes I am part of Father/Son team. Bobby and I started about 8 years ago when he was 10 years old. Actually I have three boys but Bobby is the only one still racing. The oldest went back to sailing that we all did together for a few years, more Father/Son stuff, and the youngest is into swimming/snow boarding and water sports. I have a daughter too but she like boys way more than cars.
I work full time on Motorsports for Dodge so I am pretty busy most of the year with my own stuff as well as work related racing, Bobby works at a hobby shop and goes to school.
This hobby is still one of the best ways to keep in touch with your kids!!!!!!!!!

I really screwed up last summer. I had so much fun with my gas cars that I am having a tough time getting excited about this electric stuff, and for sure I hate the snow!
How is your new motor(engine)doing? Gotta get ready for the Nationals, it's only nine months away!!!!

Well, you could try lots of things: more droop, softer springs , more rear toe-in, more rear anti-squat, less throttle, lower roll center.

Or maybe something mechanical like worn/notched outdrives.
