Hey, I'm from a small town in Pennsylvania called Slippery Rock it's kind of close to Beaver Run Raceway and I was wondering if anyone is close to me or races this type of car out there because being in college for mechanical engineering I want to learn about these cars and if it would be possible to come watch you race or just check out the car maybe help you out where I can prepping it would be in my eyes a great opportunity to learn something new ... an odd request I know but gotta do what ya gotta o to learn what you want thanks anyone

not an odd request at all! In fact I'm sure there are some local racer who could use a hand and would be happy for the crew help. It's a great way to get involved and to learn about racing!

We just moved south from Pittsburgh PA area in July and was the trackside supplier at Beaverun for a couple of years.

Check out Walko Racing in Irwin - North Huntington area. He was the bridge between Graham Rahal starting with go karts and turning pro. Took him to the track in Formula Atlantic and trained him.

Looks like their site is down right now but here's their info:

Tell him Clark & Linda from Apex Performance told you to call.

We have a friend that races FormulaV at the regional tracks (beaverun, nelsons, summit point). I am sure he would love to have crew help. My husband used to crew for him but we are now South. If interested, let me know and I can give you his info. He currently has two formula Vs in WV.
