Welcome, neighbor
I think you and Andy may be the only small rigs on here with us at the moment. If I'm wrong, I'll hear about it

Yeah!!! A man after my own heart.
I'm in the process of installing my YJ springs, just got 4:1 T-case gears in. I may have many, many questions for you.

I was talking to one of my uncles (David) and come to find out he was a member in the mid 70's. He had a red '73 ford Bronco. He ended up selling the bronco to my cousin Darren Thorpe who raced it. I don't know if Darren was a member but he did run around with Mike Mudd.

I dont belive Darren still has it. But it might be in the barn out back.
He wasnt the only that drove it hard. His wife did also.

Truth be told. . .Candace was a better driver than Darren. . .maybe her barrel racing helped her with timing. . .
