Well on opening night my brother in law was driving it and another driver decided it would be a good idea to drive through him intentionally . If you look real close you can see the top of the steem logo below the Liquor + logo. Here is video from inside the guys car that drove through us. Perhapse I am looking at it wrong but this is how I interpret the video. You can note how he was trying to pit manuver my brother in law into the wall down the front straight stretch then backs off just enough to nail him full speed on corner entry thus inducing a spin then 2 or 3 rolls. Sorry to link to a facebook account but here is the video. I believe it is open for anyone to view. The guy that owns this video was not the driver so please don't harass him. He just does videos and is a nice guy. Again , leave this guy alone. He was not the offending party.

I hope that plays for everyone. The most important part is that he is ok. We will work our tails off this week and have it back out there next Saturday if i have anything to say about it. He is a tough kid and was able to get back in the car after he jumped out , because it was on fire for a short while, and drive it off the track. As you can see at the end we were going to put 2 tires on it and send him out again but found the front and rear suspension on the right side was broken so we did not finish the race. Thanks for watching, hope yall have a good weekend. I know what i will be doing. lol.
When it's fixed, spray it with this
But then i wont be able to touch it. Lol
LOL
Man that sucks but it’s all part of racing.
yep. It was a shitty deal. Heading over there in a bit to start tearing it down.
I love that you guys have Steem on your car! Bummer it got smashed... what’s that saying? “Rubbin’s Racin’.” Lol yup I just quoted a Tom Cruise movie. I don’t like when they intentionally try to take each other out. If that’s what they wanna do, they should join the derby! I’m glad no one was hurt!
That is the truth. I just hate having to fix stuff that isn't our fault. Oh well life goes on. We always come around to the fact that it wouldn't have happened if we had been faster and out in front of everyone.
Looks like a very long week in the garage. Get the coffee ready for the late nights. There is always next week, and no one got hurt. Good luck getting it ready for Saturday.
Beer and coffee, rinse, lather, repeat. lol
Ah yes the weekly joys of being in the racing business..
Yep. Found about 4 cracks in the frame , rear axle is bent couple bent front control arms. Bent shocks and sliders and the body is kinda tweeked. Oh well. Such is life.
Dooms, did this happen because the steemit logo was to small?
A bigger logo may have let to win the race. But that requires the competitors to be on steemit as well and you to be a whale so that you can do a corporate style agreement with them.
Just like Formula1. This year Ferrari is allowed to sell cars as Mercedes has swamped the market. And nobody wants Aston Martin except a few snobs in Monaco, but they will never use Steemit anyway.
You lost my plot didn't you?
Nope. I follow you. The more i run around with my tinfoil hat on the more i think it could have been a hit put out on us from those Bitcoin boys or maybe the ETH guys.
:)
coinwars
just like fake life!
Putting in work.
Had to straighten the rear axle
And now it's ass looks like a stripper I use to call nickels because it has some damn hail damage
