Super impressed with Gio Scelzi's run last night. A really rough start coming from the C and ends up 7th in the A (coming all the way from 24th). Such a talent at 17 to consistently run in the top 10 wherever he goes. The sky is the limit and looking forward to see where he eventually ends up. He and Bernie really work well together.
|
Yep. Best part of the race besides Lance/ Donnie duel....

Exactly. We have a lot of fans in this area who can't just be happy their local guy won while keeping things in perspective. One victory against the WoO on home turf and they go crazy with stupid comments. Do I think the 69K is capable of going go Knoxville and doing well? I'd be a total fool if I said no but I also know they may struggle. If they show up and hit on something, they will do good but we have no way of knowing for sure how that will go. Heard one guy "guarantee" Lance will win Knoxville. That's just ridiculous.
|
Ah, lighten up. Of course some Posse fans are dummies, as are some Outlaw fans, Green Bay Packer fans, Steeler fans, etc etc.
Anyone with any sense knows that Knoxville would be a major challenge for the Dream Team. Thats why we want to see it happen, right?

You are 100% right. I wish it didn't get to me but it does. Mainly due to the fact that if they go to Knoxville and finish 2 spots from transferring out of the B, that's still a solid showing for Knoxville yet the naysayers will bash the team instead of the chest thumping morons who bragged them up in the first place with outlandish "expectations." I really wish I was as chill as you are Rev. Maybe I'll calm down with age lol.

Last night Gravel started on the pole of his heat, poll of the dash, and poll of tha A main. Pittman led first few laps but Gravel passed him. That’s 0 technical passes, but no comment last night?
|
Gravel fell back to third at one point!

Kinser didn't start his downward slide until his 50s. Maybe Schatz should go get a checkup.
|
If any of you know what is going on this year Donny hasn’t had Ricky with him this year. I think Schwartz is doing great considering a big change. Doesn’t need a check up.. Maybe everyone should check up what’s different in the team. Stop blaming a driver. Take the Brown out of the 69k and see what happens there! Just saying

Knoxville alwasy seems to have a good bottom groove (and middle and top!).
LD seems to like running a bottom groove.
I see no reason that the 69K can't run top 10 or maybe even top 5 in Sat's A Main.
Hard to beat Schatz there, especially with the rediculous mid-race break they have.

Please list some of these drivers that have never raced the WOO tour full time and have as many WOO wins as LD.
|
My refrence was that by removing his PA hometown wins (especially the Grove) he's no better than a whloe lot of drivers that have wins on the WoO tour. The post I responded to leads one to believe he is competitive with the Outlaws wherever he runs and has run, and that's just not true. Those wins are scattered much like a lot of other drivers.

Not being smart, but how many other drivers have as many wins as he does on their hometown tracks? Not many I would guess. His record is also pretty impressive at the Front Row Challenge at Oskaloosa.

NEUTRAL TURF?????? thats a joke !!!!
|
I believe they stated "MORE neutral turf." Which I agree it would be. The Grove is a place Donny only runs a few weekends a year compared to the 69k running their weekly all season. So while Donny has dominated Knoxville... Yes, you could argue its more neutral than the Grove.

Are meaning WoO wins on their home tracks or wins in general on their home tracks?
Wins in general: Mark Dobmeier has a bazillion wins at Grand Forks and Husets. Terry McCarl own the record book at Husets and maybe at Knoxville as well.

Wow! Sweet, testing the waters for the Nats I assume. Hope the box truck is able to make the tow.

I meant outlaw wins on their home tracks. Was just saying not many drivers have won as many Outlaw shows as he has even on their home turf.

A) I love it when people agree with me! :)
B) " I really wish I was as chill as you are Rev"... thats funny! I've only been around sprint cars 10 yrs. now, haven't had time to get too opinionated or hot headed. Plus even tho I'm a Posse fan, I'm not from Pa. & don't take it personally. You should see me on some other discussion groups on different topics, I can be the bad guy everybody loves to hate.... ;)

Mechanicsburg to Bridgeport Speedway is a two hour drive according to my phone's map program. Where are all the cars I saw on Friday and Saturday night?
Big props to the cars I do see that made the trip. Go get em Danny D. Watching dash draw right now. Hope he pulls a good number after setting the track record on this new configuration.

Most of those cars are home in the shop. Many of the Pa teams are mom and pop operations or hobbist operations. Can't afford to run more than 1-2 times a week. The tire bill alone has most of those teams running in the red most weeks not to mention wear and tear on the motor, fuel for the hauler etc. It's not a cheap deal and those that can travel like Danny and the Outlaws are getting fewer and farther between.
Oh and you must have brought some good luck with you for Danny tonight.
