Listen to Pete Bicknell share his thoughts on driving / racing a BRP CanAm late model @ www.DougsDirtDiary.com
Perhaps watch Pete Bicknell in Paul Grigsby's "back-up car" in event #2 of the 2008 BRP CanAm Late Model Series at Little Valley Speedway on Sunday???? Gary Montgomery |

Seems as though you can call anything a Late Model these days.

A true "360 Late Model" would be a late model chassis with a 360 engine. Like a 360 Sprintcar.

If you listened to what his interview said maybe you would understand a little better. Even though it may not be a "true" late model, it was still
the hardest vehicle he has ever driven. Great job Pete!! Look forward to watching you race a "late model" again soon!!!!!!

yes they arent a "true" late model chassis but everything but the front stub is, and i give it another couple years and i see the can-am series
opening up and letting them run the full tubed chassis, great run for pete but im sure he had that car around that track all week long before that race so it
wasnt " his first time" haha, and but as in the words of Ricky Bobby--"If your not first, your last!!!"
 hahahaa
what a great class tho, any car on the track has a chance of taking home the checkers on any given night, keep up the good work and looking forward to the can-am race this weekend at Little Valley!! |

You obviously have me confused with someone else cuz I'm not a crate fan. I enjoy watching the Super Stocks. I just think they should be called what
they are is all.

i agree with ya jbar, being my dad raced SUPER STOCK for a bunch of years and i thought it was stupid to try and call them 360 late models, i mean they are
close dont get me wrong but the only reason Can-Am changed it is to make it more appealing to tracks that brought them in... i mean if you arent from around
here and you hear super stock your like what??? but if you heard 360 late model it kinda gets your attention just because of the word "late model"
