As many fans know, we ran into problems with our number 1 motor last year and only saw two races before the motor imploded. I guess the best way to explain the plans this year is to trust nothing but what you do yourself!! We will have one motor for sure and quite likely a second motor by mid season. If all goes well, the second motor will see close to 625 hp, a 100 hp step up.
Last fall we went to Freemont, Ohio and purchased a number of spare parts that will help give us room to adjust the car. The handling will be much improved this year.
At this point in time we are very proud to announce that we have secured sponsorship from the following businesses.
Camp Out RV - This business is located in Stratford, Ontario ran by Sam Parks and his family. They have rejoined Team 26 for the 2005 season. We have personally done business with Sam and can honestly say that they have treated us very well and highly recommend anyone who is looking for any type of trailer/RV to stop by and speak with them. It will be worth your drive.
Dowler Karns - This busines is located in St. Thomas/Chatham/Sarnia/Strathroy. They deal in petroleum products ranging from fuel oil to Esso Motor Oils to Propane. This company has been supplying farms and businesses for longer than I can personally remember. If anyone is looking for methonal they do sell it by the drum amd they do have a very competitive price. When you call ask for Jack or Dave.
Elgin Motor Freight - They are located in London, Ontario and are part of Challenger Motor Freight. EMF is a reputable trucking company that has customers that range from the big 3 auto makers down to one truck load accounts. As a mid-haul trucking company many runs are one night away or less with many being home on the same night. As a current employee (driving instructor) I know that EMF is always on the look out for professional drivers. They offer competitive rates and good equipment. If you are looking for a change in employment please contact me via email.
If anyone is interested in joining Team 26 contact us via email.
