On your very professional Web Site I can't see anywhere the list for Wednesday Night Qualifiers. One would think it would be in bold print on your front page being it's the biggest story of the day/night. Help me out and tell me where you are hiding this info., thanks in advance....If it is then call me a dummy, I answer to that quite a bit these days, lol.....

Don't go losing it too much. We still need you around to tell all those great stories from your days on the road and we certainly need you around to trigger my fellow Posse brethren lol.

FiXXXer, what seems strange is some memories are like yesterday but other recent things have me stumped. My years on the road was almost all good and the memories and feelings are still strong from those days. The people I met in all three countries covering sprints were the best of my memories, even in Posseville. A man like Gene Jenkins or Van May is somebody you don't forget and that's two of the best peeps from your area, you could throw in Terry Zellers and Shawn Norris as well, Posseland has tons of great folks and a few ugly cheerleaders, lol....

Doesn't Sammy's mere presence on Wednesday make it a tough night for everybody else?

Wed. has; Logan Schuchart, Kerry Madsen, Tim Kaeding, Donnie Schatz, Ian Madsen, Kyle Larson, Aaron Reutzel and others....
Thur. has; Shane Stewart, Kraig Kinser, Brian Brown, David Gravel, Brad Sweet, Tim Shaffer, Darryn Pittman and others....
Might be closer than I thought originally, most everybody here has won there before, I just think the Wed. group might be hotter at the moment, heck I could throw in BombShell Haudenschild as well, the way he ran last Saturday, wow.....

A wee bit of sarcasm from my good friend on the left Coast, but there sure were days when this was true, about 30 years worth...I will cheer for my buddy Sammy until they put me on the other side of that clay/dirt, just as you will cheer against him, that's what makes the world go 'round, Chris....A good time for Dirtvision methinks, not one burp from the 4 days last week, hope I am not jinxing them, you aboard California?

Yup! Happy to hear the streaming has been reliable for you and allows you to get your fix. I don't go that route because the part that I enjoy and miss the most can't be streamed: being there. I can get results and see highlights easy enough but since I can't be there to enjoy that part that is really all I need.

I think Wednesday has the slightest edge in competition... Donny, Larson, Schuchart, Gio, Reutzel vs. Sweet, Brown, Gravel, Shaffer, Pittman. They do a great job of splitting the field equally every year. I won't buy that it is done randomly because it is never lopsided towards either night. At least not from my memory...

I don't ever recall anyone trying to indicate it is done randomly. In fact, I heard a soundbite from John McCoy on the state news talking about how they intentionally try to balance the nights.

Is Kraig Kinser still a factor?

Murph, he qualifies very well and with this format that's a really big deal, the last month he has been fast everywhere. |I think that Thursday is still the weaker of the two nights in my humble opinion....

Hey MSPN I'm only 50 and my body is reminding me of all the stupid stuff I did in my younger years. Both shoulders rebuild, left elbow rebuild, knees are shot, but my memory is still going strong.
Our boy Shawn McDonald now works for El Chapo and is living in TJ = Cam and I are taking him to the Ovals this year since Javier has to get his paperwork figured out. Cam and I are also looking into buying a house in Knoxville so we have a place to stay when we are out there.
Tell Kim I said hello and we need to get your ass back to the states for one more gathering of the crew!
