REBELRACER Posted May 2, 2005 Report Posted May 2, 2005 i didnt see jason kelly's name on there anywhere...........is he still running i-37 this year?? Quote
Definitive Posted May 3, 2005 Report Posted May 3, 2005 It seems like all of the Kellys have disappeared this year. Quote
missmindy29 Posted May 3, 2005 Report Posted May 3, 2005 Actually, Jason Kelly heard that I am building a car to race against him and after saying "WOMEN" he left and no one has heard from him since. I guess he realized what he will be up against and just bailed... Guess I have to set my sights on building a car that can do tricks like say the #26 car. Ok, just kidding ya'll, I am building a car, but it is for PURE STOCK and I shall not scratch it till the new season. MissMindy29Racing Mindy (Melinda) Quote
