Thanks for the laugh

And the drama..It had me on the edge of my seat waiting for the next post. Is that all, is it over all ready?
Why don't you guy's draw car #'s, say at 5 bucks a pop, and the first car number that gets teched win's the pot... OK, ok, it was just a thought.

What the hell is there to complain about? This is going to be a hell of a show and I can't wait. Hockett is the extra cherry on a perfect sprint car sundae. D. Faria says he'll be there and Sweet is on a roll.

the facts are: there will be big motors, there will be illegal valve angles, there will be raised runner heads with other than factory ASCS gaskets. Other things to look for.... offset motors, illegal or tampered tampered with right and LEFT rear tires, etc. etc. etc. There are illegal VRA cars but the cars that show up that don't run the series will probably be more suited for an open 360 show. Is this going to be an open 360 show or a VRA show.... I guess we will find out!!!

Damn, with crap like this makes you wonder why sponsors put up the big money with such whiners.
NAH, I think everyone from the fans, owners, drivers are very grateful to the generous sponsors that are making this special event possible and I don't know why just a few people are putting down VRA for putting on a big buck race? WTF is going on, really whats there problem. BIG NAME RACERS ARE COMING TO VENTURA to race for big bucks in a VRA 360 race, and my guess is that there will be tech, but I have no idea. My guess is that Rutherford, Cory, Kierce, Espinosa, Templeman, Hendricks, etc etc will all have a say in that the racing will be fair and above board since it is for $5k to win, and since it is on a hard tar, it will more likely come down to driver skill, and crew chief set up than big engine and fuel cheating anyway, just my guess.
So enough of the VRA BS bashing, just enjoy the race, or go to the other great race of the weekend at Perris! Both races should be great with extra talent this weekend.

EVERY CAR GOES THROUGH TECH BEFORE THEY COMPETE!Seems those with negative opinions have no knowledge of how things work at Ventura! It's really just another Sat. night roundy round at the Sea Shore....but with a bigger purse....

Sweet will not be at Ventura. He is at Homestead with Kasey.

Hey now, that was just a little levity there. I was pocking fun at the people who were talking negative nonsense. I was doing a little fishing for the instigators and you come along on your high horse..LOL You are barking up the wrong tree with me, you need to relax and look for the humor in life.
"EVERY CAR GOES THROUGH TECH BEFORE THEY COMPETE" really?..LOL
So, just for the record what negative statement did I make, and what made you try me on for size?
Just for the record..Those who have paid attention have noticed that I have complimented Ventura and the group that run's out there many times.
Here fishy fishy.

OH! so now you accuse me of making a "pot deal"!!
What were you disagreeing about, when they tech the cars? Oh I get it, they tech first, that's why some guy's can't race and get sent home. Geeeeez, I should have figured that out 50 years ago when I was 10.... Oh wait, I did..
Again, you need to find someone else to disagree with, maybe someone stupid.
Overlook? I get it, that's your sence of humor, right..LOL

Since those are facts why don't you go ahead and name the teams that will be running illegal.

Is it race time yet? What the hell are we going to write about in the off season if we get this antsy (is that a word) in just 5 or 6 days between races
Hope the wind dies down and Naylor has the track in primo shape so we can see the racers do their magic tomorrow night!
(think anybody will try to slip a 410 by with an offset, and soaked tars watch out for the grasshoper he might just try something slick huh )

I guess we can take LarryO's coments with a grain of Ventura's sand, since the following message was posted by LarryO on IOW

So you can plan for a lifetime for a kill and when the time comes I'm goin' to give it to him.
Amen...and God Bless. That's how wars are started and it make good racin'/fun!
Sincerely,

Yeah! Just don't ban the guy who started it. Some "accidents" that happen on a racetrack are deliberate. Tit for tat when the officials refuse to wave the black flag. "Eye for an eye, Live by the sword, die by the sword". JMO
