I have been racing since I was 16, a few years now. Up until the late 70's I raced V8 mostly Chevys and one Ford with some success. In 78 I needed a car to travel 30 miles each way to work the best I found was a 68 bug. Over the years it has gone from a stock 68 to a tube chassis racer. It took several years and a number of years just seating in the garage. I have driven long distance truck most of my working life and that does not allow for much racing. But I never sold the little racer. My wife and I have changed the car over form stock to a tub chassis, 2.4lt alcohol injected fun racer with a bus automatic. Converted to automatic to stop breaking the transmission. It took 3 to 4 years to make it work with any consistency, it is not the fastest but we do have fun with the car. My wife and I do all the mantainance and re-building the motor every winter. Without the help of some good friend and specially my crew chief, partner and wife I would not be able to travel to races in the USA and Canada and have some many friend in this sport. The bug that I bought to go to work is the car I still race today. This year we will be a 8 races in Mich. Ohio and Penn. .
