Total Loss? I Wrecked My Legend Car

I wrecked my Legend car at Dominion Raceway, and I did it to myself. No excuses. Here's the walk back to the pits, what the right front looks like now, how I check whether a race car is actually totaled or just ugly, and why I'm already ordering parts.

Bowman Gray Stadium under the lights during the Kyle Busch Invitational Legend Car race in Winston-Salem, NC

I Went to the Kyle Busch Invitational at Bowman Gray Stadium

51 Legend Cars, 18 Bandoleros, and a stadium full of people showing up for the Busch family. I couldn't race this one, so I walked the pits all day at Bowman Gray — Samantha's speech, Kyle's M&M's car, the merch line, and Preston Wrisley taking the win. We race on.

Chad's #63 Legend Car up on a dolly in the Midlife Classic Cars shop in Greensboro, NC during race prep

What Nobody Tells You About Owning a Legend Car

Everybody films the racing. Nobody films the week before it.

Door-to-Door at Charlotte: My Legend Car Round 2 at the Cook Out Summer Shootout

Door-to-Door at Charlotte: My Legend Car Round 2 at the Cook Out Summer Shootout

Round 2 of the Cook Out Summer Shootout at Charlotte was about getting better, not getting positions. My corner entry is still fighting me, I finally made it clean through Turn 1, and I spent half a lap racing a buddy stuck in second gear. Come ride along.

I Won Last Place at Dillon Motor Speedway

I Won Last Place at Dillon Motor Speedway

I went back to Dillon Motor Speedway for another Legend Car race weekend, and yeah… I finished dead last. But I had a blast, learned a ton, and figured out a lot of stuff on my own this time around.

Midlife Classic Cars Legend Car Number 63 in the pits at Dillon Motor Speedway South Carolina

Ich bin auf dem Dillon Motor Speedway gegen Kyle Busch gefahren – nun ja, irgendwie.

Ich lud meinen Legend Car auf und fuhr zum Dillon Motor Speedway in South Carolina – und landete auf derselben Strecke wie NASCAR-Legende Kyle Busch. Zum ersten Mal auf der Strecke, ein riesiger Unfall am Start, ein Dreher in Kurve 3 und ein Wochenende, das ich nie vergessen werde. Lesen Sie die ganze Geschichte – und wenn Sie Rennen und Oldtimer lieben, schauen Sie sich unsere Bücher auf MidlifeClassicCars.com an.
