We’ve been trying for a couple years to do this, looks like this is the year !! Kaylie Foundation says let’s do Funny Car Chaos… So, in August we are heading to Mo-Kan Dragway, at the Missouri / Kansas border in a small town of Asbury, MO it will be epic !! 😎

But I appreciate the offer.

We are Pre-Entry #21 for the Bootheel Fuel & Gas Drags held at Skelton Raceway (formerly Jeffers, my home track) in Sikeston, MO 😎 We already have a call out, one of my Facebook Friends has an altered, and challenged me to run him, we’ll get great video !! 😜

This pic is the reason we always run our wheelie bar !! Not worth trying to save 30 lbs for us !! PS: Hindsight was my favorite RE/FC, it was beautiful too, what a shame...

Flashback Friday !! This was me blazing the hides at the BilletProof Drags in Florida !! We had a blast running with those guys, and they introduced me to the Southern Slingshots, which we joined, and are still Friends to this day !! Racing Family are the best 😎

Well that seriously sucks... Man, I am really sorry to hear this. Since I posted the ad, got one lowball offer… Not enough to pay off the debt, can’t bring myself to sell at a loss, so trying to hatch a plan to refinance and maybe take off first half of the season 🥺

Help Rescue the BackMotor funny car << Link Talked with my Sponsors, we are about 3 months from positive cash flow… That’s about 10K, so a crowd source funding account was created, still working to make it all happen, but have a hole in our budget.

Couple new developments… I changed jobs for better pay, the Crowd Fundraiser is gaining traction (pun intended) talked with Sponsors and all wish to continue, plus a couple new ones planning to come onboard for 2025. Put my house / shop up for sale, as I plan to downsize, be on the road more and home less anyway. We’ll give it a couple weeks, but if this trend continues the For Sale ad will come down !! 😎

Big changes at BackMotor Racing !! The RacingJunk.com ad will be allowed to expire, the FundRazr account will be shutdown after the last guy gets his PayPal to work. It was created at the request of 6 fans who wanted to donate, 5 did, one to go. I went to Southern Bank here in Missouri. Wearing my best jeans and a BackMotor Tshirt (that’s all I own) carrying a folder, with no appt… I sat and waited for the Commercial Banker, nervous, this was a Hail Mary… I told him of our 25 year old Team, our uniqueness, and that we landed a big Sponsor, but had a gap in our funding due to some contracts ending, and new ones just starting… He says what do you need, and what’s in the folder ?? Handed it to him, contained a single pic of our car… He says ‘Oh My !!’ a handshake later, we have a new Marketing Partner, and fresh Logo going on the hood for a year !! 😎 Our graphics guy Billy Mac Signs created this for the hood >>
