Lafferty aligns with BobCad
Lafferty Motorsports is pleased to announce an alignment with BobCad. BobCad is a CAD-CAM software company out of Clearwater Florida that is known for simple, easy to use programs yet very powerful programs used when designing and programming CnC machines.
This alignment will help grow BobCad, gaining the brand awarness and consumer awarness of such a powerful tool. This will be seen first hand as the Lafferty brand product line of parts will use the BobCad software to grow.
"We are very excited to be teaming up with BobCad, in our first week of use our productivity went up an easy 50%. Before it could take days to engineer parts and write CNC programs and now I am close to doing the same thing in a matter of hours,, myself." Chris Lafferty said.
Daytona Testing
December 20, 2009
The Lafferty team is no stranger to Daytona, however this would mark the first laps ever turned at the famed race track by Chris Lafferty, " I was especially excited to go to Daytona for the ARCA test because I had never driven this place and i always wanted to, the only time that I got a little nervous was when we lost our power steering, it was unexpected and was a bear to handle. "
Joining the Lafferty team was new comer Justin Boston. "It was awsome to drive this place, I want to thank Chris and the team for giving me the opportunity to test with them." Justin later added that he was infact a tenth faster than Chris had been on back to back runs.
Lafferty Motorsports is pleasedto say that Justin did infact get approved to run the upcoming Daytona ARCA event in February.

Phoenix ends season for Team Lafferty
Well the 2009 season closing race for Team Lafferty was less than spectacular, but left many knowing that the decision for Chris Lafferty to take over the wheel is no joke.
"We fought oil problems all week end long, which we thought was due to the oil tank being over full." As it turned out Lafferty later discovered when they got back to the shop that the entire dry sump systems had less than 7 quarts of oil left in a system designed to carry 16 quarts. "After an oil analysis we discovered that our oil was vaporizing at only 210 degrees." Normally synthetic oil can operate above 300 degrees.
In practice and qualifying Lafferty knew they had issues so they just rode around trying not to do anything stupid, but knew once the race started that they would have to kick it up a notch. "Once we were in the race we hit pay dirt and I could push a bit harder, but my limited laps in practice kept me cautous during the start of the race."
Many commented on how good the Lafferty Teams truck looked during the start of the race running competitevly with some quality teams.
"I know now that i can do this, that excites me!" Chris Lafferty said.
