Radical

Let's see if this old brain is working properly. Didn't he use to race in the T.I.D.A. Series?

hell he gets to yaking worst than me and says the same thing every single race .. annoying . fact if they say much any of them i would be happy  ..i want to hear a race .

I'm with you HiTech. Burton is the most irritating announcer there is. By the end of a race I'm ready to mute the TV.

I don't know the history here but in my opinion #95 did nothing wrong. Maybe there should have been video.

That is one fine looking car. Looks like a well built cage as well. Sorry I'm not interested in buying.

That is some big B.S. for sure. They should ban the 17 from racing there.

I thought it was an interesting race. It was not the best show I have ever seen but I do think things will improved. I really liked that Cody won the race above the more experienced drivers of this type of car.

Thank you. It is tough.

SORRY ABOUT YOUR WIFE DIDNT KNOW SAD..    DID did she have a few things she  wanted you to do  and you never got it done .if so  then you have your honey do list 

Thanks Mike!! I guess you're right. There's a couple of things she wanted done but we never got to. Taking care of her was the priority.

No Honey Do List here. My wife passed away 2 months ago. Now it's get off your ass and get things done list.

If it can be done in Kansas, it can be done in Texas. Just wait until Nick wins the Mega Million lottery. 

Maybe we could try Darrell Waltrip's vortex theory?

That's one good looking car. Someone needs to snatch it up for this season.

That is what the bullies want.  They win if you quit

I don't think it's so much that they want you to quit, I think it's more they haven't matured enough to keep their emotions in check. I have not one problem of someone coming up to me after the race and talk about it. To be out on the track with a 3400 lb. weapon and intentionally take you out is just something a child would do. Racers need to be mature enough to keep it together on the track and mature enough to discuss it in the pits. After you're in the pits and you still have a disagreement then a mutual decision to fight is okay with me.

  BACK  at the first practice they had jesse made me get in the car first  i knowing i am not going to do any justice in the 7 car .. but just a feel for things i may find .. the tech man stuck his head in the window telling i could not go out on  the track i wasnt the driver .lol .. johnny  looked through windshield  and said just a warning the car ahead of you is 100 percent rookie first time out .... i looked at him and said so am i .. i had never taken a lap on that track ever in that car or any car .. i think that was the slowest i have ever been on a track i did no justice i think the tech man said something to jesse about just how sad i looked .lol .. jesse said watch him at sts .. ... 28 years or so out of a car with just a few races or practice here and there  a racer it wont make me .. i still have the drive i still know what i am looking for i can tell if its  the car  that crazy or me i still know if i could just get a few million more practice laps and half that behind the wheel in a race i make do something good .. .. i havent lost the drive to win just the drive to keep it between the lines safely ..  .you really never know just how hard it really is to be good on a track once you climb back into one after all this time .. and on dirt at that .. these drivers racing as hard as they can have me beat by a mile  alot is going on in that car .. .. i think what johnny is doing will trun out great  for dirt track racing .. he may be a racer and most dont turn out good managers of tracks but he seems to have the best in mind and does not  use its my way or the highway attitude or even show his dislike for someone he  does not really care for . a good promoter lets that all go .s i hope him good luck .and sadly we wont make the friday race little issue with getting right parts for our motor . but if  things work out saturday night we might be on fire for us  THAT IS 8 CYLINDERS FIREING OFF .. this week we could only talk 7 into wanting to race  one went to canada for a vacation i guess  ...

I've watched you race many of times at Corpus Christi Speedway. You held your own pretty well.

How much for the Mustang?

I'm with you Mr Hi-Tech.....Drama is one thing and there's always plenty of it to go around at every race and every track. Fighting is entirely another and that's not why I go see a race. Racing isn't about who can beat up another person(s) with a tire iron or whatever is handiest to use. Its about the car that crosses the finish line first

 

Crap like this is one reason I quit. If you're not mature enough to keep your emotions in check you shouldn't be behind the wheel.

i try not to look at a another teams car as trash ..sometimes that is all the team can afford and think about it with  out what one would call trash you could   have no class of cars over A short period of time  .. .. i have had what would be considered trash when i started  but i  showed up and gave it my all ..  THE GOOD THING WAS  and is still around today is some driver or team  does not want his car torn up by so called trash would help that driver  or team  out .. i was helped . and i helped many others along the way . todays trash might be your best competitor in a couple of years  the family grows you know   . MANY OF THOSE WRECKED CARS  wasnt  caused by trash cars .. BY DRIVERS WHO LOST TALENT AND PATIENTS  ..i welcome all new comers ..because we all were there at one time .. 

Very well said Mike.

I think we'll be able to gauge today on how it will look. I saw parts of the first practice and part of the second. NASCAR should have an idea how it's going to go with the cars having been on the track and should make track preparations to adjust. At least I hope they do.

I remember Charlie St. John. "Let's talk about the weather"!!

Congrats to Allen. I really like the way explains the weather. He makes it where even an old fogey like me can understand.

Who would say that .not even a smidgen of truth to such saying  you dont know what you  are talking about  have a question call the owner . ..... well it doesnt matter the reason it was sold for destruction . to late to save it now .i guess the seller can sleep well .

If I am mistaken about the owners comments then I apologize. It just seems to me in a post on Lonestar Speed Zone that the owner had said he was going to reopen and not sell. At my age I cannot recall everything as clear as an 18 year old.
