Thank You for working with us so well in the first part of the year. We have a very nice group of teams. We try very hard in PRE TECH to help you set up your car and work with you to make sure your car is ready to race. We spend much time at every race to help you. That is what pre-tech is for. It is a tool to help everyone.
4. If you have any problems before or at a race please see Tim or I for any help we can give you. We will try and work as much with you as we can. But we must stay with in our rules package.
We are working on some spec shock packages for Penske Shocks. This is just in
works and would like a team to try these shocks. We are also going to be working with several other shock types to see what we can do to bring costs down on shocks. We are looking for teams to try these shock packages. Please tell Tim or I that you would like to try one of these packages. These would be free to try. For more info call Tim or I. We are working on details for this program.
Thank You All
Mike Lemke and the complete ASAMT Tech Staff.
