I WOULD LIKE TO EXPOSE ALL THE TALENT AND WORK THAT THE PIT CREW FOR THE 47 & 63 DWARF HAS. NOW I HAVE NOT AROUND RACING, TO A GREAT EXTENT, UNTIL BRIAN STARTED IN '94. BUT THIS CREW, RAY, PETE, ANDY, ERIC(WHO HAS NOW STARTED DRIVING) HAVE DONE THINGS THAT I THOUGHT WERE NOT POSSIBLE. THEY HAVE BUILT A NEW FRONT SPINDLE, BETWEEN A HEAT RACE AND A MAIN. REPAIR PANNARD BAR MOUNT, REPLACED A COMPLETE REAR END BETWEEN A HEAT AND MAIN, PLUS ALL THE NORMAL THINGS LIKE REFUEL, CHECK CHANGE TIRES, ADJUST SUSPENSION NUT AND BOLT THE CARS, TO MENTION JUST SOME OF THE FEW.
I THINK FOR THE MOST PART THE PEOPLE IN THE STANDS MISS THE BEST SHOW WHEN THEY DON'T SEE WHAT THE PIT CREWS DO BETWEEN THE TIMES THE CARS ARE NOT ON THE TRACK. NOT JUST OUR BUT ALL OF THEM. THEY NEED TO BE APPLAUDED.
ALSO, THERE IS A LOT OF HELP GIVEN BETWEEN COMPETITORS WITH PART SHARING AND CREWS HELPING OTHER TEAMS WITH LABOR AND WELDING AND ETC.
