It looks like he will be racing all next week at the New Smyrna Speedweek Opener.

Did you read the post from this site? Some are pretty funny and are poking fun at RC. It's got to be a lot of pressure on RC having to live up to a reputation that was created in a totally different form of racing.

[quote:2ai9nxjn]Carmichael is leasing Dickie's car for speedweeks. I won't tell you what he is paying. But most of us could race for 5 or more years. The owner of the 07 Guarenteed Concrete was going to sell everything after speedfest but I guess decided to continue on and Choquette was available.

They have over 170 cars registered as of Wednesday night when we dropped off our car. The pits were STUFFED full and thats with all the tow vehicles removed.

That's a mighty big gamble on Mr. Motorcross's part if you ask me.[/quote:2ai9nxjn]

[quote:2ai9nxjn]No doubt, it reminds me of Jr going to Hendrick...time to put up or shuttup. man I am geeked about tonight.[/quote:2ai9nxjn]

[quote:2ai9nxjn]Did the agreement also include Dickie in the pits, on the radio and working the remote control?

I agree with Trip and Bubba. I think he's in for a big letdown about his readiness level. ESPECIALLY if there is a big field of veteran talent at the track who are going to use him like a roll of Charmin.[/quote:2ai9nxjn]

I have seen both kinds of suspention on the wing sprint cars, I think some guys run the same car on both dirt and asphalt. Anyone out that relly wants to see some cool racing and speed go watch these guys on asphalt, there corner speed is unreal.

Sammy Swindell ran a coil-over Gambler chassis (Hooters sponsored) in the WoO series back in the mid/early 90s, but since then I havent seen anyone go near that set up again on dirt. At least not on the typical 87/40 dirt chassis. Its hard to beat the usual 30" torsion bar.

Carmichael is leasing Dickie's car for speedweeks.


Whatever happened to that deal he had with Bobby Ginn Racing?

no doubt it's different racing...but, RC has always put himself in the line of fire. Win or not, he can handle the pressure. I think he will win in the long run. RC just wants to accelerate the process by going for the top every time he touches the wheel.

Ginn Racing got bought up, and I'd think that the team that Ricky is either working with or talking with (last report was DEI, right?) is the one actually leasing the car......

I am pretty sure DEI took over most of Ginns operations/drivers [RC being one of them]. There was an announcment regarding this issue about 2-3 months ago on ESPN.
