CHILI BOWL PRACTICE DAY
Welcome back. First race of the season is here and we are excited to escape the cold weather back home. As you can see we are leaving a snow storm and headed South to Tulsa. The way down was icy and a little sketchy.
After making it to Tulsa we get loaded in the Expo Center and ready to fire off our Mopar King Chassis.
It's shaping up to be a great year. Thank you to all involved in my program and my journey.

2025 season is in full swing and here we go again for another year of Who knows what. In this video I will take you through the trials of trying to get my midget pushed off and fired. With some of what I think is fuel issues we will see what the next step is. Hoping to have this resolved early this week that way we can carry on with preparations.

    Good Luck at the Chili Bowl! We will be cheering for you here in Chicago. Can you speak to how a Chili Bowl car is different than a car you might run at a USAC show? I have heard you need to basically build a special car for that show.

    • @kylesteffens8
      @kylesteffens8 12 днів тому

      Thank you. Long ago guys could build a light weight car. Although now there is no weight rule you do have to run certain wall tubing to fall into the rules. So an outdoor car and indoor car now follows the same tubing requiremnts. For the Chili Bowl you can run a 10" wide LR vx an 8" and a 12" wide RR vs a 10". That and no weight but thats all the difference now.

    I love USAC and particularly love the Silver Crown cars. I think it takes so much courage to go racing on this level because of the time and financial commitment. Thank you for opening up that window to us. I would love to hear more about the financial side of things. Not that I think racing like this is in any way a way to get rich… in fact I know it is the opposite. I think it would be interesting to fans to understand the level of financial commitment it takes. And more tech please! Explain it to us the way you would want it explained to you. Look forward to seeing you race in Indy this weekend.

    I love these finese races where everybody is tiptoeing around the track. Seems like silver crown does them better than anybody. You mentioned burning up a clutch. Whats current arrangement of clutch/starter/battery? And you mentioned a spotter, so they must be using radios now.

    • @kylesteffens8
      @kylesteffens8 3 місяці тому

      Silver crown mandates spotters, especially for some of the Mile or bigger tracks we go to. We use a from mount starter, like an airplane starter and we use a series battery setup with a starter kart to start the car. Some guys use an onboard starter but I am against those because they can fail you before startup and cost you valuable spots in qualifying. I'll make a video about that down the road.
