Q&A with: Curt Sherwood

 

Looking back on 2003 what areas were you most pleased with and what do you hope to improve on in 2004?
2003 racing was just plain ugly! Mark and I couldn't do anything right, nothing clicked.  Nothing worked right, if it wasn't motors it was drive line problems all year.  For 2004 I bought the car from Mark and Gayle.  I would like to run the whole SOS Series and give the championship a shot, but I have a lot to learn to become consistent at every race we're at.  Our program looks really good at this point for 2004, so we'll have to wait and see.
If you could change one thing/event that happened in 2003 what would that be?
Well, 2003 just plain stunk!  Racing, the loss of my dad.  So what to change?...Start 2003 all over! 
What type of things (other then working on your car) do you do to keep busy in the off season?
I try to stay busy doing things with my kids Brandon and Kaleigh.  Brandon just got done racing go-karts at Speedway Park where he finished 4th.  Kaleigh is into dance and girl scouts so it's pretty busy all year. 
Which track do you look forward to returning to in 2004 and why?
Well I would say Ransomville because we're pretty fast there, but the SOS will not be there this year.  So I will have to say Ohsweken.  It's a really fast place to race.  Glenn and the crew do one heck of a job. 
What goals have you and your team set for 2004?
I would like to give the championship a shot, but again to be able to make all the races would be nice.
What type of work to the chassis, motor and overall car is involved in preparing for 2004?
I totally went through the car from top to bottom!
