I just got a Eagle racing chair! I am looking for some racers, is there any on this web-site? I am wanting to ask questions to make improvements to my chair.. Thanks for all the help Billy

You might contact Carlos Moleda at his website. He is a former SEAL with a service connected SCI. He has a great program for training and would be a good resource for setting up the chair.

It's critical that the chair and your stroke is right otherwise you are setting yourself up for some major shoulder and lower back injuries. Cross training is esp. important. Good Luck.
