Are you planning to race at the event? We plan to have AutoX and 1/8th mile drag racing. The poll is set to be able to have multiple choice, so if you plan to do both, make sure you select both!

***** IF YOU ARE RACING AUTOX - If you are running JSM or Sportmachines suspension, please POST! *****

I'll be there for the 1/8th and AutoX. If JSM means running coilovers I will be. I plan to be the fastest stock engine/turbo truck there for the AutoX. :D

Sportmachines and myself will work toghether and I will extend my offer for arms sold by them due to that design is mine and they are selling them with 100% support.

RPM arms are a bit different and I have no affliation with them, so hard to justify sponsoring another vendors products.

I haven't sold any a arms in several years now, but I still value my past customers and do my best to support my products.

Definitely!

We do the autoX with the Buccaneer Region SCCA so the course and equipment we use are all SCCA certified. In fact, the event is basically hosted by the Buc Region SCCA, we just piggy back onto it for our event. So you can run anything you want for the autoX. For last year, there were GTRs, Evos, Minis, and other random cars. Of course, if you run anything other than SyTy, you wont be eligible to win any of the awards we'll have.

1/8th mile is same thing. We'll hit the local track to where you just pay entrance/race fee and have at it.

Good to here they back in production. I love mine. Over the years a bunch of people have asked me where buy JSM coilovers.

Bump thread.

We are working on something that should benefit those who would like to autoX, so if you havent voted, please do so!

Re: 2012 Shindig Racing

I am 98% sure I have the JSM kit on my Aspen but I will confirm that with Jeff. Thinking it was installed when Todd owned the truck, just prior to him cutting loose of it.

Fully intend to use it as a weapon of mass instruction for all in attendance ;).

Because you think you'll be the only one to have coilovers? Then again I forgot..some of us budget build our own trucks on limited funds, not buy them basically race prepped like the Lap 1 or the Aspen ;)

There's no big money flowing outta these pockets. I bust my ass and appreciate the work I do on my own truck. Every bolt on and modification I have has been done by me. No shame in asking for feedback, tips, or advice either since there is always something to learn from everyone....including from you. :tup:

But I also dont see you posting or contributing to the autoX section with all your 2 wheel'd experience. I would have thought you could have had something to say from your past golden years of racing. In fact, Im not so sure you actually raced but rather was just part of the pit crew as the water boy instead. :D

Do you make noises and pretend like your riding like this guy?

Re: 2012 Shindig Racing

Wow.....not even gonna attach your previous post since it was kinda lengthy and vain. I have NEVER busted on you from a financial aspect and in fact, you may be sitting better off than me. Really makes me no matter either way. Po boys up here run some pretty fast cars.

For the record, I get dirty; I bust my knuckles and scrape my skin and bleed red like everyone else but on some occasions, I have to farm out my work and I have been blessed to do that. I respect the ones with the skills and the ones with the moola.

If you wanna validate my 2 wheeled experiance, dawn a set of leathers, straddle a R1 or CBR1000RR and lets take a ride. I did work corners a plenty while others raced and they worked them while I raced. Not ashamed a bit to admit it but I never got promoted to be a pit crew water boy.

How did you find the video of me in my intense training period? I thought it was destroyed.

You guys down south are a great group of enthusiasts. I figured we could rib each other and in doing so, motivate others to come out and participate/attend. I'll lay off b/c I don't wanna be ruffling feathers and hurting feelings. Might just lay out altogether this year so one of you guys can win the plaque/trophy ;).

Re: 2012 Shindig Racing

Oh come on now Shaun, your a big boy... this is all in good fun.

Thanks, but no thanks on the bike ride. I will openly admit, bikes are cool but I am scared of them and have never felt comfortable riding, so I dont. I guess riding a dirtbike when I was a kid and smashing into a tree scared me for life. I'll stick with pocketbikes or carts, the fall is shorter and the speed is slower when it comes to no surrounding protection in a crash.

Your training vids are all over youtube. I almost subscribed thinking I was gonna learn something :)

But hey, if you want to stay home thats cool. I thought you were going to try to defend your #1 spot, but if think you cant stand seeing yourself defeated, I understand completely. You relax, I'll send you some pics of the event. ;)

You know your coming, you wouldnt miss it. :rotf:

I hope to see both of you there.... because there just might be some other bad ass, fast trucks with trick suspension set ups we all might want to see go round.... ;)
