I was wondering how you get a job as a tow truck or push truck at Williams Grove Speedway.
I had some downtime here in Radiator Springs and was on the computer looking for race tracks and found out that back east there, you have to push your race
cars to start them. I think that would be so cool, and am willing to move east if the pay is worth it.

You have to pass a test, written along with actual towing or pushing cars, and then they give you a license. All you need to do then is flash your license to
the pit official and they stamp your forehead with a "T", "P" or if you have both "TP" and your good to go for the night. I think
the going rate is $5.00 a push and $10.00 for a tow. But be sure to collect the push money before you push the car off cause you'll never catch them after.
To get the $10.00 for the tow just ask the biggest guy on the crew for the money after you drop the car from the hook. That's a nice looking rig in your
picture. Do you have it paid off yet?

Hey thanks. That sounds like a good deal. Figuring there would be both heats and features with possibly 15 - 20 pushes a nights and at least 3 - 4 tows, that sounds like some decent money, since the rig is paid off and runs on a distilled clear substance I make from corn. I also run on the same stuff. How hard is the written test? I should be able to pass it, as the juice has not affected my brain as much as it has my liver. I like the idea of asking the biggest guy on the crew for money, because he probably has beat up most of the rest of the crew to get theirs, so he would be the likely one to ask. Good suiggestion, thanks. Glad you like the rig. It's a dependable sturdy old truck. I'd just need to add a board to the front and I can T and P.
