Old Guy Steve Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 Well, the old girl has gone off to the crusher. After four 24 hour Lemons races, years of Nelson Ledges track bitch duties, then being revived for three seasons of Chump/Champcar, she succumbed to a test day shunt at Pittrace three weeks ago. She gave all she could to donate to the newly acquired Stella 2.0 1995 VW Golf. Team Junk Player Special lives on. The livery will remain as JPS since the new Golf is also black. Now its just work every day for the next 6 months to have Stella 2.0 ready to be unveiled at Watkins Glen in May. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think I have not thought about a 914 Champcar. For those that don't know me, the silver one became the Street/Autocross/Track car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny story... @bjaspudbought the Jetta from @Old Guy Steve to go LeMons racing. Then @Old Guy Steve took the car back to make it a ChumpCar. We prepped the Jetta in about 3~4 weekends before its first LeMons race and as the plan was being formulated, John Hinkle says "I've got a couple of cages in my shed" Apparently he'd been scavenging and hoarding rollcages as people retired their showroom stock cars... Who does that?!?!?! So that rollcage was scabbed together from 2 or 3 different Autopower kits, all of unknown origin A coat of satin black made it look good, but it certainly didn't owe us anything. @bjaspud is the biggest cheapskate on the planet, and he took the budget part of budget racing seriously. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
