the full monte.....RIP!

[mcstockcar]

its offical... the monte is dead! After being shoved into the wall(im feeling that today) the frame is bent beyond any repair. Along with the rear frame that is rebent from some impatient drivers that try to drive thru me not around me. If your faster than I then go around me or be patient! Theres no bullseye on my car i dont think? As for those cut bumpers....this better be a issue at the meeting that is planned. There no excuse for it. Waaayy to much damage from them over the season, not to mention flats. I had a great time at the mutha as did at all the races. I try to pace myself(like critter did) in the race but find cars driving by tearing up anything getting in the way.To some, out side the car you may not notice things like that, but put yourself in the car and its a lot different. See attached picts of what a cut bumper did to car(front fender bumper, rim , went down the side)

not to mention flats.

There was a ridiculously large amount of flat tires in the Mutha.

Sucks that your car is junk...I have a feeling a bunch of cars are headed to the scrap yard.

I don't know why you retired the Monte Jack. It looks WAY better than my 12
years of enduros veteran Pontiac.It's had a bent frame since its 1st year.It will be back again next year.My niece tried hard to bend her up and did a good job.

Its bent in a place i cant straighten, Behind the rh control arm, and waffled the frame down lower and under car. Ive cut and stretched the frame 3" before when i 1/2 rolled my car....MmMMM,waffles!

[Steve Haegele]

Jack, it took 8 races to get your car bent just right, now your goin to start all over, come on, keep the monte alive.

[mcstockcar]

That was just practice!
