  • 232 and Rare Bear ??

    Just curious, does anyone know the status of these two racers? Will they be at Reno this year?

    Well the Bear never leaves and last I heard 232 was still stuck in the back corner of the Bear cave still waiting on a new owner.

      Have any repairs been completed on 232? Were the horizontals repaired? New cowl? Scoop? Windscreen? Etc?

        They both currently live there at Stead.
        No activity on either one, (so far), or so I am told.

          I spoke with the Ezell crew and they said they aren't currently working on the Bear's engine. The main idea was that it was going to get the "go fast" parts that it didn't have in 2015 so I assume IF the Bear is coming it won't take too long for the engine to get all fixed up at Ezell, especially since it didn't blow up. They could probably whip it out in time for Reno even if they start it in August I imagine.... Waiting game for now
          Reno from '99 to '22
