Few things demand so much coordination and nerves of steel than ACTUALLY driving a dirt car, been in this for more that a decade.. love it, but local tracks need to focus on keeping the cost down, not rewarding the cars who spend the most $$$ , or no one can afford to go racing but the wealthy...just saying. Keep it going and thanks for the video !!
If your track has a claim rule, start claiming. It will end high dollar motors at your track. It won't make you any friends, but who wants yuppies at a dirt track anyway?
I am guessing that was hot laps on a muddy wet track. Also your steering wheel looks bent. May be my head is bent from hitting the wall all them years ago.
It look like here is some play in the wheel, like it might not be sitting squarely on the shaft. At the beginning of the video you can see it moving some before he takes off

@@waffletits7995 ive always thought that the budget guys should have their own seprate class from the "deep wallet guys"
Nice sounding car
That’s called no headers and that’s when you cut the mufflers all the way to the engine and all you hear is the headers
Nice footage.
This has gotta be so fun.my dad did it for awhile.i will race
I did it for 9 years and loved. Took the points for two years. Would love to get back in one. But $$$$$$
U fee
Bill Belcher well what do you know I’m now racing
That's how to properly drive a pure stock 💪🤘
What a handful
BAims what happens when you don’t have quick steer
it's a pure stock...
Scott Owens its PURE JUNK
She looks a little on the tight side for a dirt cat.
Get a go pro mounted on the side or the hood and do a "PIP" for that view too!
I broke my foot on a gas pedal like that, bad wreck. I wish there was another option but thats the norm.
Nice sound. Is that a Chevy engine?
Most of them are 350 based
nice gloves bro!
I don't know much about dirt cars, what kind of shifter setup is that?
I know I’m late, but I would assume it’s a 3 speed Saginaw transmission
Or a brin transmission
*bert transmission
@@michaeldavis359 it’s a Saginaw. In order to move in a low gear with a Aftermarket transmission like a Bert. You have to push the clutch petal down.
Do you have to change gear while driving
No, you put it in whatever gear you race in and send it
@@ryan14r95 it also depends what you are running and it’s also one way to break the transmission and that would cost a lot of money to replace
