a lot of people probably figure he's the next big thing in one of the best cars so 9th isn't that great. i look for him to quit or get let go after nationals if things don't change. obviously Tony likes Carr to much to fire him so the driver will go again

Are you serious Outlaw? Mike Cool is helping out on that team from what I saw at Cedar Lake so I don't think Kraig is going anywhere soon. And even if he were to quit where would he go? The 11k is parked due to no sponsorship and unless something opens up there are no other Outlaw rides out there.

Nothing against Kraig but I find it quite difficult to get too excited about a ninth place finish regardless of the driver!

Just my two cents.Wink


Calling an illegal immigrant an "undocumented worker" 
is like calling a drug dealer an "unlicensed 
pharmacist!"

While Mike Cool may be helping out Kraig and the team, he's not listed as being on the crew on the TSR web page...

And I have to agree with Leon - a ninth place finish is no big deal to most people.....

But if the 9th is followed by an 8th, 7th, 6th, etc. that is called "progress". We'll see. But like I said, it's Tony's team....

it wouldnt look so bad if the other team car wasnt so good. as Schatz continues to just about dominate - or run top 3 consistently - when KK has trouble making features and passing anyone -------- people are right wander WTF. obviously there are behind the scene things going on. if it was just based on results - - - KK woulda been out of it by now. so there is obviously a lot more to it than results. how long that will remain the case is the true question....

mike cool was at Lima and Eldora wearing the TSR colors. i have my doubts that steve kinser is paying the bills for the 20 car... that seems like a lot of extra steps and the 20 car (I wonder what number the TSR car will be next year with Lagano driving the 20 in NASCAR) has been out on tour for years.

side note: donny is running the shaver/J&J package... while KK is running the tradition Kinser Maxim with a Kistler... wondering around at Eldora... didn't see a lot of J&Js other than Don's or Shaver motors either... so I'd say it's all the car... it's the cars that make one awesome and one horrible...

or something like that... ;)


I hate most Donny Schatz fans...i.e. all the ones who 
started rooting for him within the last 3 years...  
i.e. 90% of them.

I've thought about that before... but it don't make any sense when you think about it though. I'm not saying your wrong but do you think Steve would pour money into that operation like that if the car is not winning? When TK had the 11k that car was up front and winning races!! The 20 car has not been the same since Lasoski left it and for that team to win a couple shows a year is unnacceptable that car should be winning alot more than it is. JMO.

If it wasn't for his last name, he would have been gone by now.

So, what's it called if you qualify 41st, and finish 12th in the B main?

I'd call it consistent - what with all the KK and the TSR 20 have accomplished this year.....

and the fact that the car is basically 11k and daddy won't kick out his son also helps him keep that ride

Can't be the 11k..the 11k was a COMPETITIVE car, whether KK or TK was the shoe... the 20 is more like a penalty box......:(
