I never could figure this team out from the beginning. Tony was looking for a hard charge that would let it hang out and win races. Paul is a good racer but he isn't the hard charge type he is a cruiser that takes it as it comes. Thing didn't go well for them last year so this year they tried a lot of things. They where trying to get the car to the feel that Paul was looking for and that take away from you racing ability.I wish Paul and his family well in the future.

Tony will pick up a young GUN that will let it hang out. That will bring the shows back to life!!!!

You obviously don't know Paulie to well. Paulie wasn't nicknamed "Mr. Excitement" when he was younger, for nothing! Tony won't put up with a driver that tears up equipment while "hanging it out". It might be exciting for the fans, but Tony wants to win championships, both for himself and his sponsors. Paulie gets what he can outta what the car gives him, and doesn't push it over the edge when it's not there. If you notice, he's always finishing the race, not DNFing because he pushed it over the edge. Consistency is where it's at (he's top 10 in points) not just balls out until you see GOD! Paul is a good clean driver and let's it hang out when it's there, but remember, it's not all just driver. In the ultra competitive WoO tour, it's a team thing and everything has to gel for it all to come together and run up front.

SUPPORT WILDLIFE, go to a sprint car race! 

Like who...Tyler Walker, Aaron Fike, Shane Hmiel...there's the un-holy trifecta, and all are looking for rides. Yeah, yeah, wtf - ever, I know there's plenty of hard chargin', hanger outters just falling all over themselves to hook up with their "new daddy", but who wants sloppy seconds, and make no mistake schlotzski is gonna get the not so sloppy first dig.

Exactly how long is a life-time ban?

Paul's a good shoe, he doesn't tear crap up, and he's quite capable of winning races given an opportunity to do so.

Why is everyone so completely certain that TSR is running car 2?

How about Jason Meyers...tough time landing a big sponsor, new papa...

He should put Stevie Smith in the car with his dad as crew chief.

Thank you t-dub

You're welcome!

I wouldnt be suprised to see Jac in the 20 car... This offseason is going to be drama filled with the 11h pulling off the tour and leaving Kerry Madsen with no ride. With Roth pulling off the tour and leaving Lasoski with no ride and with Wright pulling off the tour and leaving Jac with no ride.. Should be very interesting..

Back to the Lean 15 the way it looks right now. Throw in all these rule changes and see how many others pull off the tour. They might want to trade the name "Outlaws" for "IROC" with all the rules governing sprint car racing these days. "Run what ya brung" has since become "Run what ya bought at the same part store/engine shop as everybody else's spec tires, spec wings, spec heads, etc." And everyone whines about the "glory days" and why things are so different today. Seems obvious to those of us who have been around since the dawn of winged sprint car's time.

Danny lasoski is starting his own team. The karavan number 7 is folding. Craig dollansky is going to be driving for roth. This is just rumor so do not blame me if it is not right.

If you dont want to "own it" then don't say it!.

Hey Sprintcarz, I Haven't been on here in a while, just wanted to say hi and thank you once again for the Bud Sherwood pics that you e-mailed me last year (see avatar) I really appreciate it! Thanks, Troy White

SUPPORT WILDLIFE, go to a sprint car race! 

Glad you enjoyed the pics. Did you think about buying the Sherwood car? I have not talked to Tom for a while (paging mr tipover), it still may be for sale?
