Competition was fierce during the 2010 Pavement Oval Nationals at Langley Speedway in Hampton, VA during Oct 7-9.  Chance Rice had only qualified for the B Main in the Pro Division so winning the National Championship was a distance dream but still possible.  He bolted on a new set of scuffed OleDawg2 cut tires purchased from Little Race Cars and went racing.  The rest is history as not only did he win the B Main but he started at the rear of the field, stormed through it, and won the A Main National Championship on the same set of tires except for the right rear which was changed for the final race.  Chance ran the 2nd fastest lap of the race on lap 35 of the total 50 laps which validated the OleDawg2 cut tire profiles were spot on to give both longevity plus speed.  In addition to Chance Rice's victory on LRC/OleDawg2 cut tires, Cameron Patrick driving for Little Race Car was amongst the best all weekend, qualifying 5th for the A Main & running Top 5 until an accident damaged the car during the second half of the race.  The speed was there on the OleDawg2 cut tires as he ran the 3rd fastest lap turned during the A Main event and the fastest lap run during the final 9 laps of the race despite his damaged car.  Consistency and performance was further validated by LRC/OleDawg2 user Joe Hendricks, Jr placing 4th in the Semi-Pro A Main.  When the best in the country get together to race, Little Race Cars & OleDawg2 Tire Cutting Services combinations give the advantage to win against the best.  

Why Must You Cut Legends Tires??

        Tire cutting is an effective means of enhancing a tire's performance capability. Tire cutting removes tread rubber and reduces tire weight by several pounds. A cut tire's tread profile will result in an increase in the width of the tire's contact patch putting more rubber on the road. The resulting shorter tread depths reduce the tire's slip angle, increases its responsiveness, and helps stabilize its cornering power by minimizing tread block squirm. Minimizing tread block squirm also reduces heat buildup and the risk of loosing grip by overheating the tread compound. In many cases, cut tires used in competition actually have a longer useful life than tires at full thread depth because the reduced leverage on the tread blocks reduces "chunking" or ripping of rubber from the tire during cornering. Little Race Cars uses the services of OleDawg2 Tire Cutting Services to provide the best tires for Legends racing and help you into victory lane. Give us a call for the details.   

    
        In Richmond VA, Jason Miller, running for the Little Race Cars team, turned a 15.41 lap at the 1/3 mile Southside Speedway breaking his 1 year old record of 15.51 seconds set in 2003. With qualifying no longer done at Southside starting with the 2004 season, Cameron Patrick has turned laps as fast as 15.16 seconds and 15.22 seconds captured via electronic timing during race conditions during the 2004 thru 2008 seasons.

         The track record at Shenandoah Speedway, set by Craig Goess, Jr, had held solid for 2 years until Cameron Patrick broke it on August 18, 2007.  Running a quick single lap of 17.368 seconds, Cameron trimmed another .02 seconds off the old record.  The racing day finished with Cameron winning the A Main which was #3 in a row out of the eventual 5 in a row A Mains Cameron won at Shenandoah Speedway during 2007. During 2009, no Legends racer has gotten to within a tenth of a second from this single lap qualifying record even though they have used the multi-lap European qualifying format this year.
