I see some top cars were in the 19 second bracket in TTs tonight. Might as well break out our tapes from the early 80s. I'm glad I went to the local tractor pull. Remember when Chris Eash had the track record for the longest time at 18.50? He should have brought the 358 out tonight for old time's sake.

racing is no longer allowed/wanted in a WoO sprint
car.... Was Luna a miracle worker?

WoO mandated shit track conditions were in full effect @ the Cow Palace...
With that said, the highlight of the evening for me was meeting Woody the minny donkey...

I hate to break it to you dumbass Stan, but the WoO guys have ZERO say in how any track does the prep work. This has been a confirmed fact for years now. Please do me a favor and go ask any of the promoters that host the WoO races directly. You have continued to beat this drum over and over and what you don't realize is that you are sitting in front of a piano......next exscuse please?

What were lap times at tractor pull? Was tractor pull track as good as the last time you went? I would never brag about going to a tractor pull. From video I saw of the GROVE , it was not as bad as you say. A slow track is slow for every one, and the only way people wouls know it was slow was if they told you the TT times. Knoxville was about 1 second a lap slower that last week. So what?

If WoO Officials have no say in track prep, why did they lay down in front of the water truck @ Lincoln in May when the Guru was about to correct a flaw...? :/

If a person keeps telling themselves something, they will continue to believe it. These are all opinions of yours but the facts are still the facts. Which promoter did you talk to again? You can take your "track prep" theory and place it wherever you like. Get over yourself bud.

I like to read Stan's post's because they make me so happy that my forefathers had sense enough to leave Pennsylvania back in the 1700's.
Half the lies they tell about me aren't true.
