Truck99 Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 I normally have a pretty good sense of humor, but I wish they wouldn't let that car on the track. It's absurd. Some of the Grand Stock drivers take their cars very seriously, and this makes the class look like a circus. Just my opnion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockStan Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 my favorite driver as a child was jimmy hicks in his spray painted black camaro with the red spray painted numbers on the side and he had his red headed troll glued right to the roof and ron arnette had a ca at longhorn back in the mid 80's that was painted up with all the sesame street characters on it over the stock paint job man that was a big ole dodge boat drove it right up to the crusher that was funny and from the looks of it this guy has a lot of time in his car too those stuffed animals didnt just fall on there lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fast18 Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 The Grand Stock class isn't a joke .They put on a great show with some very competitive racing. Some people can't afford the higher classes (I may end up with a GS someday). Some may take it a little too serious but this car is a joke. Wild paint schemes...sure...stuffed animals ...I don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REBELRACER Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 looks more like a demo derby car. hopefully they wont let him on the track with all that crap on his car. wont be nothing but cautions for debris every time those silly things fall off. probably wouldnt be a bad looking car if not for the toys on it.

If you are going to do something you should do it to the best of your ability. It is fun but it's called "RACING" for a reason. Have you seen many grand stock races? It's usually anything but follow the leader. Not everyone can afford the "real" race cars and have to do what they can with what they have.

PAPA Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 Give the guy a break. He's just trying to have some fun. You might not like it but I bet the kids will go nuts. Actually I think it looks a lot better than some of the other cars in the upper classes at both the asphalt and dirk tracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kathy Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 Well, Elmer Fudd made it on to the track, but was to slow and was black flagged after one lap. I think all the stuffed animals weighed him down to much. Oh well, maybe next time he will faster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HiTech Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 the toys and glue cost more than the car did .and problably worth more ..... though its ugly as heck ..i cant seem to find a place in my heart to condem the mans artistic work .. had to take some time to glue that all together .. why is it someone steps out of the box and . trys something only to get knocked around for it .... most drivers are proud of thier paint jobs . ......... my thought here is .he wanted to clean out the kids closet and what better way to do so ..wonder what the car will bring over the scales at your locar crusher .

Pacecar Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 From the grandstands where I was sitting: The kids were on their feet, all excited. The parents said that the guy that owned that car was probably from Austin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProTree Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 think i saw this guy on austin access tv awhile back.was filmed at thr,talked about his car(minus animals),safety equipment and then he took a few laps and had car issues i believe.

PAPA Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 The man towed to the track and paid his $ at the back gate just like everyone else. He went through tech I assume and attended the drivers meeting. I call that supporting the track at the least. So he's different. Hell, you should see this old fat one-legged man push a wheel barrow. Thats different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Moon Motorsports Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 That guy was parked next to our team last year....and yes, he may be a little eccentric, but he is a very nice person who loves to be at the track and be a part of racing. I don't know his name, and I wouldn't personally drive that car, but I have seen all manner of things zip tied to roll cages and sayings/words spray painted on cars. Maybe everyone oughta lighten up on the guy...or at least not be making personal comments about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
