Topic: Petty Cash Captures '13 National Championship*

The *2013 Ultra4 Racing/King of the Hammers Stock/4600 Class National Champions is our 'other' race car, #4643!

Our #431 Lemons Jeep is painted in homage to #4643 and will be at Sears Point for the season-ender, but sadly not #430.

We had an amazing year, at least on the off-road side. In other news, we'll be switching to Falken Tires on our off-road race Cherokee too.

Hell yeah!  I still love the exo-cage on the Jeep, that's some nice fab.  Nice hardware they gave you for the trophy, too.

Thanks guys, it was a magic season. We didn't finish lower than 2nd at any event, ran the whole series and came home with a bunch of trophies.

We make no bones about this one costing more than $500 (though, the shell only cost $400). Add a couple zeros to the $500 and you'd be in the ball park, but with 4400-class/Unlimited Ultra4 cars now costing $250k+, we are the Lemons of King of the Hammers racing:

Re: Petty Cash Captures '13 National Championship*

Thanks everybody. We're tearing down #4643 and building some new, wider axles (thanks to perennial Petty Cash sponsors, Yukon Gear and Axle) that will allow us to lower the Jeep a little and make it more stable for the 2014 season. New 4.9 stroker motor is in the works, too.

Tell me more about this stroker motor? I think this is a good idea for my Rambler.

Sure, you got $10k laying around? big_smile

It's not quite that bad, but a basic 4.0-liter based stroker costs $3k and up...way up.

Yeah, I searched the interwebs after I posted this and soon realized that it was way outside of the Lemons budget sad

Re: Petty Cash Captures '13 National Championship*

Is a smidge easier when the sponsors pony up for the goodies! Thank god cause that's how the gig works! Still, when the ol rambler motor dies just get a good 4.0 an swap it in....itll go like hell! Matt did real good with em till he swapped  for the LS motor...
