We finished building Tomas Sheckters car today and will head to the track tomorrow. For those that are watching the Indycars I will be working for KV racing for the month and hopefully we will have a good one.I will try and do a few updates over the month to let everyone know how it's going, so far it's been a very busy few days!

We did not get to run today so there are was time to take a few pictures of the cars. I am on Tomas Sheckters car and we only ran four laps yesterday but tomas was happy with the car. I hope that we will be able to run tomorrow if the weather gets better.

Thanks it's a lot of work but I like being in a team and involved in racing. This is only a one race deal as I am out in California working for my Dads business building racing engines. I am actually second generation at Indy as my dad ran the engine program at Kraco racing in the 80's

lol I was thinking the same thing, I would even settle for an Odyssey if it had that engine in it lol.

well everyone, the weather has not been good the last two days so we spent most of the day doing pre fits for parts and setups we will be running when we finally get back on track. We managed to get some pitstop practice in before it started to rain again.

obviously I have to be very careful about what I post in relation to pictures and what the team is up to but here are a few more pictures I took today and if there are any questions about the cars I will try to answer them for you

thanks, we finished 8th today for the race which was a decent result. Oh and no I don't think Danica is all that :)
