i no balog has no $ ive heard it a hundred times im just stating if balog is there hes gonna win i dont like seeing the same person win all the time i go for the under dogs and yes schmidt has just as good of equiptment as balog same set ups as balog i dont like him either or the team owner i aint going to rhine auto to get ripped off on junk parts for new prices. both balog and schmidt have to much $ behind them for the other locals to keep up it sucks but the truth ill still be rooting for the under funded teams you go rite ahead and cheer for the high dollar cars i aint gonna stop ya. balog just needs to let a few of these guys get some wins they try hard to. just dont have the $ for motors like his. the equiptment he has is good enough to run with the outlaws everyone else has equiptment that can run with the ira tell me im wrong at least the msa next year will have alot of first time winners without schmidt around. and the ira will prolly be 14 wins 17b 3 wins 35 5j prolly 1 or 2 and that covers the season think ill be at the msa shows. PS why does sinclaire help balog he should be helping the people that dont have $ just ass backwards if you ask me if balogs motor blows sinclaire puts his in his car wtf. like friday night balog was in pits for 12 mins the second he comes out they push the cars off didnt bother waiting for the 80k to get pushed out thought work time in pits was 2 mins dont no if balog and sinclaire split winnings or what but something smells fishy just my thoughts you dont have to like or agree cause i dont give a fuck.and please no more stupid replys about your trolls whatever those are or that balog cant just leave his job family ect ive heard it already and thats cool look what mark dobmeier does every weekend has a wife and newborn child if you wanna read about a real racer read some articles of what this guy and his family does to race oh yea he works a job as well runs river cities on fri knoxville on sat huests on sun thats why everyone in the country knows who he is and why no one knows balog outside of wisco or ill we need a new promoter for the ira period

This thread shows what happens when people drink on a 3 day weekend.......

I tell it like I see it.

Sprint flyer, Sinclair has motors and let's Balog use them? Your credibility, not that you had any, just left.

was told sinclaire has a shaver seen it in balogs car last year at wimot all star show all i no. i honestly dont no either of the idiots so as good as were i heard it from if not correct im so sorry but a tell me sinclaire doesnt help balog. totally off topic i witnessed twice in 2 years mr sinclaire tell a driver on track in front of hundreds of people to go after another driver the 80k after a bad slide job he told ty bartz to go get some in plymouth last year and scotty neitzel in wilmot this year how could a promoter do this kind of stuff to drivers thats talent pays his bills totally out of line.

You need to stop smokin stuff.  It really is imparing your view of reality.

Give me a little bit but I put video up showin Balog taking out Mojo. Mojo's car looks like its going in the right derection until Balog shows him the right rear, just sayin

Boy, thought some others were tools.  Whole new level here.  Must be Winker off his meds again.

Looks like "mojo" ran out of fuel going into the corner or ran out of talent. Hard to tell.

The shaver you are talking about is/was owned by one of Billy's sponsors  not Steve Sinclair.

I tell it like I see it.

I stand corrected thanks to Mr Gunner after viewing the video from Plymouth the 5j was trying to avoid drilling the 35 who pitched the car in 1-2 Which caused the pile up. Sometimes you just have to see it again.

Im not really sure why people keep bringing up money. There are other teams that run IRA who have a big budget but the talent level isn't there. Put some of the others in the equal equipment and they would still get beat by balog,schmidt,kertcher etc. I dont like seeing the same person win every week but until balog leaves to drive something else he's gonna keep winning the majority of the races on the IRA schedule.

Schmidt?? what you saw last Friday is pretty typical. A few years ago, i may agree with Schmidt being lumped into that group, but with the amount of stuff he trashes in MSA and the people he's run over the last 2 years.... it's a noticeable decline. The equipment made him look good the last 2 IRA shows, but after seeing King in the other Rhine Auto MSA car on Saturday.... i think he would be a way better choice to put in the IRA car, if that is the direction Rhine Auto wants to go.

Schmidts only had 2 nights in a true ira car. Leading both races I think the team is ok with the performance of their driver. Give him a few more nights and there will be more crying from all the haters.

One of the races he took out half the field, and started up front with hands down better equipment than anyone else up there, on a track where a MSA 360 went from the back to a top five. He sure as hell should have finished up there, and same goes for 141.... just having the experiance and equipment he has is going to make him a contender for second all season long until Balog moves on. That whole team needs to iron out these issues though, no matter the MSA car or now the 410..... they cant give Ben a car that can stay together or run 100% every week. In a year or two I would like to see  Scotty Thiel, Kyle Martin and Tim McMullen move towards 410's, with them all being just under or over 20 years old that might be where the IRA future is.

excuse me, Brandon McMullen.

I think there's a good chance Marten will be moving up in the future.  Thiel not sure what his plans are.  As for our team, it's all about not having the money nor time to run a full IRA schedule.  The combination of money and time is the reason why we're only running Plymouth the past two seasons.  We've got a limited racing budget that is already being pushed with the 360 car.  We're even running some other guys' old equipment to save costs.   Then with myself having nearly 3 more years of grad school in Madison and the rest of my family and crew being busy, its hard to do more than what we already do.  Maybe someday it'll happen in the future, but not for a long time.

BTW, its great to see some MSA guys having good runs with the IRA (Schultz, Schmidt, Davis).  Money always helps, but you still need a wheelman to make it go.
