A Conversation with TC Racing's Tom Carlson

John Pellan talks with ATV Engine Builder and Industry Legend Tom Carlson on the Pine Lake 50th Anniversary and more.

Brings back some great memories from the late 90’s hearing TC talk about Spader, Gust, and even “the hick” Schell

He did my 250x motor and a R motor for me as a kid....I will never forget when I was dropping off a R engine and you let me in the race trailer with the Diggers blue Laeger Nac's rides saying you were on the way to Tennessee. Seeing them in real life was like a dream come true for me as a teen!!!

Man I love Tom and miss him dearly. I spent many many hours with him in his shop and at the track 98-2005. I learned so much from him. I’m glad I ran across this interview.

I won the Raleigh tt national 200cc 3 wheeler mod 4 stroke on a 200x with a TC dual plug big valve head on it. That bike was faster than most of the 250r's. That era of atv racing was awesome.
