G2 Radios presents The Waterford Speedbowl Message Board

I understand your point about the computer programing but the cars at the track are not using computers. The point is it is harder to pick up the knowledge and desire when it isn't attached to something you use everyday. In the old days you tweeked on your street car and the race car. Now they are very much different. Maybe in a few years they will be closer again with injection and computers (other than traction control ).

And F&R, it will be interesting to see how the whole fuel injection thing works out. On the top tiers like cup, natwide and truckers they should have the technology to keep everyone on the up & up but as the tech staff budgets drop that could favor the racers with $$$$$ to find advantages!!!

So, what color do you think the new walls will be? I have a hunch they'll still be white, but wouldn't it be cool to paint em up red and white like a lot of tracks from years gone by used to be?

I just replyed to ya on the facebook page.... but the walls were painted like that back in the day because of NASCAR's deal with RJ Reynolds/Winston... NASCAR would send drums of red and white paint to paint up everything to look like the old Winston cigarette packs... buildings, walls... etc
