It is with great saddness that we report that the Red #32 Bandolero has been sold. It almost broke my heart to see it roll out of the driveway. Betty almost cried. It has been a really good car and Connelly learned how to drive a race car in it. Toward the end of the season we really got it dialed in and Connelly was able to drive it anywhere on the track and it would stick. I don't know how much his driving would have improved had we stayed in Bandolero racing for another year. So, we have moved on, and purchassed a Legend.
The car we got was Cody Logan's #88 backup car. We took delivery on the car on Saturday Sept. 25, 2010 at Sunny South Raceway and Connelly got in some serious practice. At first he was Bando driving, but after a lot of pointers from Mr. Joe and Brian he got the line better, his brake points and acceleration pionts started working, his times came down and he got more comfortable. When it was time to go I almost had to "pry" him out of the car. It was a great day. In keeping with the normal weather pattern for SSR it even tried to rain. We look forward to next season already and we only have six months to go.
The new paint scheme has yet to be fully determined, but we are leaning toward a glossy black with orange flames????
