You better check again!   HL guys hace at least 4 wins against the Woo/Allstars!  Yes, out of Larson's mouth he is a HL driver!



You need to read a little slower. Let me clarify it for you: HL drivers named Rico have one WoO win so far this year. That's only one more than Cory Eliason has.

Rico is definately the crowd favorite. Wins like Kokomo are what brings fans. Chase is doing a job job of calling the races.HL and WOO are both doing fine. You need drivers people pay their money to cheer for or against but bottom line they buy a ticket. Live streaming has changed racing and Flo is giving HL the exposure and funding to go against the WOO and survive. This the first time from NBA USA NFLPGA the break away series has survived .Nascar has become a bit boring as the personalities just arent there anymore.

Rico only races with the Junior Circuit every once in a while, same with Larson.  They combined have 4 wins against them.  Rico has 5 total wins.  That 15 still has a goose egg!  Ricky has Rico running!  I can't wait until August!


Let's go Sprint Car Racing!

Rico - 6 wins
Donny - 0 wins

Knoxville - Best Track In the USA!
Eldora - 2nd Best Track in the USA!

Shuttin down the ole smart watch after the race saying to himself, "I dont need to run over near as many people when I have this thing!"  *Blue Tooth ear plug in one ear, Track controller in the other"

He should read his own rule book on what constitutes a HL Driver (High Roller) and FLO should update their driver roster from the season.  And HL should put his picture up on their website with the 14 HL drivers.  Other than that...ya.  LOL LOL LOL.

 

Breaking Down The 2025 Kubota High Limit Racing Roster - FloRacing

 

BUT they do disregard the rulebook on watches; stopping on the track and keeping your spot; causing a yellow and keeping your spot; scales; etc... etc... etc.....  

 

Because he said it....lol    Rulebook bud, lays it all out. 

People say stuff all the time that's false...... just because someone says something don't make it true

JFK Said he was a jelly donut; doesn't mean it was true. JFK only has one less WoO win so far this year than Rico.

Kinda off topic but you went there. In German, "donut" is translated as "der Donut." JFK in his speech in Berlin said "Ich bin ein berliner" which translated to English is I am a Berliner. For Germans who live in Berlin it's Ich bin Berliner. Because they are from there. He was conveying a oneness with them. A jelly donut in German is Gelee-Donut. So in reality JFK never said he was a jelly donut and it was not percieved as him saying he was a Jelly donut by the Germans in Berlin, as the area around there used the word Pfannkucken for a jelly donut. What is more… ‘Ich bin ein Berliner’ is not only correct but the one and only correct way of expressing in German what the President intended to say. So the Jelly donut myth was just another case of as we say now, fake news...

So if Lord Larson participates in a Woo race he identifies as a Hi Limit or a Freedom Fighter? I'm confused on the simantics of this can you please clarify this very important topic with expert commentary?

I think Larsen is a cherry picker or a true outlaw when he is in a sprint car. The HL schedule seems to follow the nascar schedule a little bit so his available days fall on days when the HL race. If the pay outs are similar he is gonna be at a HL race because that supports his other business venture. He obviously isnt racing sprints for the money. By the end of July we will know if he chooses Husets over a regular show elsewhere. But it wil be hard to tell because the HL schedule is also set up to cherry pick high dollar WoO shows.


Even though I may not know you, I 
care what most of you think!

Oh yeah? Well, JFK doesn't have Ricky Warner as a crew chief, so therefore, everything I say must be true! wink

Whats the deal with the smart watch anyway? How could you use it in a race?

As a safety measure, by the way, I HATE people who text & drive!!!! frown

If Srawser would just say something like "Warner has been a huge help to Rico, & was a big part of Schatz glory days", or maybe even "Schatz would be better off if he had Warner back", leave out all the "My word is truth" & HL cheerleading, nobody would argue with him. We might just say "you could be right", or "I disagree" & leave it at that.....

But NOOOOOO wink

I hate to tell you but Ricky is the reason Donny won 10 championships and 10 Nationals.  Donny wouldn't either without Rick Warner.  I know the 15 has 11 Nationals...every once in a while a blind squirrel finds nuts!  There are kings and then there are king makers....Warner is a king maker!

ricky is also the reason Rico is fast right now!  I know most people don't want to hear facts!

Rico - 6 wins
Donny - 0 wins

Knoxville - Best Track In the USA!
Eldora - 2nd Best Track in the USA!
