To start, I have never been one to ignore the writing on the wall. I have always believed that there is a time and a place for everything.
This week, the announcements of Lasoski and both Kinser cars returning to the WoO was a defining moment in the NST/WoO split that can not be ignored. Just as the actions of the majority of the 2005 WoO teams' decision to leave the WoO being a defining moment. I supported the decisions of the majority, knowing that when a company has that many employees walk out that there is more than meets the eye. I also have had, and will continue to have my own opinions of DIRT and the choices that they have made over the last several years. Since the split, I will acknowledge that there have been organizational improvements within the WoO, but it is sad at what it took to make it happen. With that being said, I will once again support the decision of the drivers.
I can only wonder what would have happened if Fred Brownfield would not have been tragically taken from the sport. After all, you have to admit that it was he who forced the WoO to make some of it's changes early in the 2006 season, even after it had already started (like being more fan friendly). He was a visionary and had a clear cut path on the direction he was taking the NST. That all seemed to fall apart with his passing.
I have made my bed and I am prepared to lie in it, however it still does not change my feelings that I have posted on this split since it was announced about a year ago. I will continue to stand by every post I have made on this subject and any other subject I have posted on in this forum for the last 10 years.

If and when the NST folds, how long do you think these changes will stay in affect?

that comment suggests that you are bi-polar or infected by posse envy.
since you support liberal politics and crave the money of others to solve your problems, i suggest you seek accute care for both.

With all of the owner driver changes in Posse Land and what appears to be the reuniting of WoO/NST, The $hit that is fixing to hit the fan is the fallout from complete dominance by the WoO when they storm through Pennsylvania. From Williams Grove, I can hear it now, "and starting in the 3rd row of the B feature is Fred Rahmer with the remaining Posse completing the field"

get off the dream pipe cheroger...
BOTH of these carnivals had their share of woes in ONE ARE in USA this year...POSSE SOIL.
same as it ever was, more circus teams load up early in PA that parts unknown.
reunification presents a bigger problem to Kville than here! doubt me?...check the results.
does Kinser back on board mean no more discount tickets?
