And some people thought the W of O was a one man show, sheesh. The top 3 dominate virtually ALL the time trial shows and somebody is surprised, lol? The only thing to save the total domination of the most boring speedweek in the country is the fact that the three car owners who won most of those shows are now all GONE! Finally, their might be a decent speedweek in PA, but it won't touch what has happened in OHIO for years and anyone with a brain already knows this. Come on Shep, Take It Easy....
PS Reality, ain't it a beaut!

Reality is that anyone with a brain knows that you talk out of your a$$!
Hopefully someone mailed you a copy of the Lincoln program last week, so you could read Shepards comments on racing in Pa........now that's reality!

I'm headed out the door to participate in a bean bag tourney to fund the Gobrecht Scholarship Foundation............then we'll enjoy a few coolies in the lot...........then we'll see the opener of PA Speedweek..........$10,000.00 to win tonight. Sorry bout yur luck.

What were Shep's comments? He has always had a lot of respect for the Pa scene even though he's done most of his racing on the road.

Basically he said that Pa has the toughest competition he's ever raced against.............we'll try to dig up the exact comments so you can have the FACTS!

PA Speedweek is okay, I prefer Ohio because of the greater competition. Then again, people in PA are so ethnocentric (a belief in or assumption of the superiority of your own social or cultural group) that it's really hard to get an intelligent conversation going without it turning into the typical moronic drivel that usually turns up on this board.

Smitty...Facts are good. I know Shep and some of his viewpoints. So I wasnt questioning what he said. I was curious what his comments were.

glued to old news?
in the last 24 hours...NONE of the "top 3" were a factor at all...Lance crept into the top 5 in uneventful fashion...while Shepard's car would not fire after it stalled in hot laps. Montieth was the show, fell to 23rd on the start and popered back to finish a very impressive 2nd. Rahmer was running in the back of the pack as were several other outlaws asswhippers.
the FOAW have the same odds to cherrypick speedweek as they do the Allstars...sorry about your luck. for the folks who can't handle the stas on PA racing, read Allan Holland's article in the national magazine. if you disagree... file your miserable complaint with a letter to the editor. last time i checked, Allan received an annual award for his contribution to the racing scene.
tonight the battle begins and there is more concern in the veteran pits than ever before. for the folks that think our racing is not the toughest, ask them why they disagree with Kinser, Schatz, McCarl and others who have commented in print over the years...along with Shepard's comment last week that racing here is the toughest thing he has had to do in his life. i think he used to run with the WoO and pounded the Allstars a few times in parts unknown...not a fan of his, so maybe i am wrong about his accomplishments.

Dewease, Rahmer and Hodnett have won almost 90% of Speedweek titles and that's not domination? How many actual shows have these three won in the last ten years? Cubic, you can do the math, lemme know. OH Speedweek was dominated more this year than likely any of the last decade and yet the driver never won the pts. Often there were no or only one repeat winner, lemme know the PA results and try to tell me they're anything even remotely close. TT shows mean the big three dominate, been that way for years and you guys know it, enjoy. Take It Easy.....

rahmer in the wall on lap 1, lance was not a factor, hodnett wins and says it is exteremyl fdifficult to make a pass
the FOAW consistently dominate QT and the pill draw puts the veterans ahead of them for the A.
Montieth has mastered the new outlaw tires to execute passes while others struggle.

Mike, not that it matters, but Ricky Stenhouse Jr. won three of six in Ohio Speedweek last year. As much as you say you want the PA versus the world debate to end, you're almost always the one that starts it up with posts designed just to bait people.
Look at the All-Star Tour through the Grove, Port Royal and Lincoln a couple weeks ago. The All-Stars didn't have a single car in the top 10 at the Grove and the people from PA didn't start any threads on here bashing the travelers. Compare that to the last time the Outlaws came to the Pennsylvania, when you started a thread calling for a Kleenex shipment to the Grove.

cubic = what was Rahmer thinking? he all but flipped that car without any help!
gasit = those highlighted names flies in the face of the "vision" that Posse drivers don't travel and win...
glad you guys had a good speedweek with a close points race...last night we saw great battles for the lead and all the way thru the pack.
