As a Pa Posse fan, I can't tell you how much I and the other Central Pa fans appreciated him spending the last month racing in Pa. He was competative almost every night,and from what I saw, sold a lot of racing shirts over the last few weeks. Hopefully we see him again next year.

Its all about money with Brown. I understand that it is nice that he comes to PA but its about money, cause lets face it there is no racing west of Ohio. Hes a good shoe but again has golden opportunity last night and goes backwards again. If anybody Reutzel is the guy you should be thanking hes really solid right now no matter who he runs with. He has shown that is in the top 5 car every night Outlaws , All-Stars, and Pa Posse. Love to see Brown run All-stars but I don't think that would ever happen. He stays in Knoxville and competition is not near what it used to be. He's the big fish there. ITs all about selling T-Shirts buddy.

Couldn't agree more. Glad to see that the fans support him by buying lots of merchandise. Central PA loves blackjack that's for sure. I hope he continues to do this for years to come. He's getting better and better at our tracks. He's gonna win one at Port and/or Williams Grove eventually.

Of course he comes in for the money. Let’s not make this out to be something maleficent.  He’s personable, likeable, and as mentioned a good shoe with good equipment.

Make no mistake, he’s there to make money.  That’s not a bad thing though. Unless your Troy Fraker (no disrespect intended Troy we love what you do and represent out there) all the racers that sign into the pits are motivated to either bring home the trophy and/or winnings. For guys like Brian Brown this is how he puts food on the tables of his family and the families of the guys that work with him.  I see nothing wrong with that and glad my $20 can help him in that regard. 

On a side but related note that’s what I think is so cool about the Outlaw tshirt trailers. Often times you have wives and their kids in there  Kinda showcases the fact that these folks have put themselves and their families into the sport.  It’s more than a career choice it’s a lifestyle choice.

"Profit" isn't a dirty word. I hope he is making a lot of money when he's here because that means he'll keep coming back. He's one of sprint car racing's greatest ambassadors and he's a damn good driver. It only makes things better when he's here.

I couldn't agree more.  Great racer and always has time for the fans after the races are over.  Hope to see him back again next year!


Let's go Sprint Car Racing!

Dumb response.  We're sorry Brian is trying to make good, sound business decisions.  By the way, Brown isn't just fast against the local competition at Knoxville.  He's one of the cars to beat when the rest of the world rolls into town in June and August as well.

Don't forget that Brownie's engine builder lives near Hanover, PA.  and I'm sure he has to spend his hard earned money to pay his engine bills. Hauling a few engines in your trailer to get freshened is probably cheaper than shipping them, he might even he hauling some fresh engines back home. Getting some racing in to pay the bills

Just so Super Chuck is clear, you're baggin on a guy because his "job" is all about making $$$?

Bad take man. If the fans dig it, isn't that what it's all about?

Well of course Brian comes to make monmey. But it;s also about making sponsors happy and meeting fans and spreading his brand. Sure, he runs Knoxville, but that;s as much about where he'd from, the sponsors on the car and keeping them happy...which he is pretty much the best in the busniess if I must say so. His motors are Charlie Garrett's, and Charlie is getting up there in age. Coming in to show him what his product is doiung for a month is as much about that relationship and respect as it is about making dollars.

I talked to Justin Henderson last week and unprompted he said, I wish I could do what Brian Brown is doing right now. He said his schedule and set up is perfect for him as a driver. Getting to run weekly in Knxville, which pays higher weekly then anywhere in the country and then coming to PA to run a full month where the pruses are the biggest in the country...it;s an ideal set up. It not only tests you as a driver, gets  experience on new tracks and allows you to be compettive in big shows, but there is a lot of money to be made. The fans love him. 

We had him on the Beerhill Gang TV pre-race show and I can;t say enough good things about Brian Brown and the affect he has on the lovcal fanbase. He joked he may have his Pa Posse card because his grandfather grew up in Wilke;s Barre and how much he loves coming in as the fans have treated him like one of their own. Constantly thanks us for interviews and helping and is just a really good dude, on and off the track. How can one not respect that?

Well we certainly knocked Littlegame around for his " money' comment...

Reminds me of when a boss tells you "You only work here for the paycheck"... duh!... "No, I just love listening to you ragging on me, I'd do it for free"?????
