"Firecracker Smacker" lives up to it's name - July 6, 2005 12:00 AM
We put a different set of tires on the Sentra to try to give it a better shot at competing.  It worked.  Art was running on the lead lap when, around lap 26, he was...
A Mirror Finish - June 2, 2005 12:00 AM
In perfect weather, Art drove the #17 Krush Unit Sentra to a 21st place finish.  It's clear that the car needs some help, as Art drove another fine race. I was doing well,...
Race Ready - May 26, 2005 12:00 AM
Whew!  It's been hectic, but we're ready.  Hard to keep up with the blog when you're working 7-8 shifts a week and wrenching in between. The Sentra was fixed by...

We removed the Camaro engine and transmission on Monday night.  Later that week, I found out that he transmission in the Monte won't work with the Camaro engine, so we are...
The Monte arrives. - February 6, 2005 12:00 AM
It's Monday.  The Eagles lost yesterday.  I picked up the Monte Carlo on Saturday.  A 1986, silver/gray.  It has the wrong engine in it, but I found someone...
