    Hello Hammond Racing!!! GREAT video!!! I actually understood your explanations of the transmission and braking systems and loved the Hammond Bros. Racing history!!! At the end Big Walt mentioned that they enjoy when fans stop by after the race to chat and ask questions and I can personally attest to that. No matter what type of outcome they had, everyone one of the Hammonds are very gracious when talking to their fans. Myself, "California Dave" and Jeff truly appreciate your time and willingness to explain whatever we would ask. I, as a "newbie", really appreciate that and the fact that BW & LW break it down and don't get all "techie" with explanations. Happy New Year, safe travels to Florida and best of luck down there!!!

    Lounging after New Year celebration I happened to find your site. I backed checked videos from a year ago and forward and like your presentations so I subbed up. Down here in NJ I closely follow the racing Billy Pauch teams, 1 and 2 along with Mike Mehaney. Your Dad/Son team is much like them. Maybe the best sponsor is fans. If we hit our local tracks it helps pay that $2000-$2500 weekly win purse that gets you guys to put on a great show. Have a safe and fun New Year! See you at the track.🏁

    I picked up on Big Walt saying "once we get a big block". I've noticed Little Walt looking at the 358's roll by with what looks like a tad bit of envy. So, any plans to make the jump? Guess I'll find out as I keep watching your videos!

    • @HustlingtheHighside
      @HustlingtheHighside  Před rokem

      We would love to jump into something with more horsepower! Unfortunately with the cost of things it seems a bit unrealistic at this point in time. Eventually, it’ll all come together! If there was a 358 division that raced closer to home then it’d make the jump easier.

    Best explanation of shifting gears I've seen so far. If I understand correctly, there's no way to "push in the clutch" in the event of a spin out / crash. Doesn't that cause damage to the drive train and engine if the car quickly rolls in reverse?

    • @HustlingtheHighside
      @HustlingtheHighside  Před 2 lety +1

      Thank you! Yes, you’re correct; potentially there is that chance. That’s why we always try to make sure to hold the brake so we don’t roll back.thanks again for watching! Please let us know if there is anything else you’d like us to talk about!

    Are there any plans to go to Grandview Speedway in Pa. or Bridgeport Speedway in NJ. ?

      We would love to race down there, but unfortunately at this time we don’t have any plans to go down there. Maybe at the end of the season! We will keep you updated!

    Hand Brake was pit breaking We only have 2 feet So 1 foot for throttle and 1 foot for the clutch and you needed 1 more to stop so that's why we had a handle for brakes There was also a foot pedal for racing

      Thank you for explaining more! It's so interesting how things have evolved.
