WOO fuel stop laps are based on 33 gallon fuel cells. Every wing team that plans on running big races already runs a 33 gallon cell. Anyone running a 28 gal cell is a lower dollar team who only...
I wanna be the 3rd car out and have Johnny shout "quick time"! Then I would record it off dirtvision and make it my ring tone, and save it on my desktop, and play it for my coworkers, and, and, and...
First sprint car race- WoO at Heartland Park Topeka KS, 1999. My then girlfriend and I were on our way home from a cross country road trip after my college graduation. Heard about the race for 3...
I failed to notice that your "all the way out" was only 19.75. You probably should have a 2 or 3 inch offset RR for a NW car on sticky tracks. Of course, after me telling you that, you'll probably...
Way to go off the rails. There's a big difference between paying something halfway decent through the field and paying everyone the same. Not every argument is all or nothing.
You tell me more. If you want guys to show up you can't kick them in the balls and expect them to come back. That guy still spent at least 200 on tires assuming he was running used crap, you still...
Kyle and Brad will pay what they need to, to achieve what they want to achieve. If they aren't getting enough cars for a meaningful B main, they'll bump the B main money. If they pay 1000 to start...
Splitting up the car count is good for the racers. If all the same cars show up for all the big races, the same guys take home all the money. I know when I show up I would rather go home with 1000...
How is an additional big money race hurting anyone? I think a bunch of Ohio guys who aren't going to Jackson anyway may think this is a great idea. PA guys headed back home might be big fans of...
Not a Ballou fan, but watching the replay of the Leary wreck, that wasn't on Ballou. Ballou didn't take away the outside lane, Leary just didn't stay in the outside lane.
The only reason you didn't know who Kyle was before his USAC career is that you had your nose so high in the air you were blind to the racing landscape nationwide. Kyle was a King of California GSC...
Robert likes to run his mouth, I can return the favor. And yes, I have run sprint cars, the whole paying bills and having a day job has been a reality for me my ENTIRE career. I didn't have a top...
The problem is, there is no way to prove the tires needed more testing. All 4 samples could have been treated in the same fashion. Also, the original story was that 6 were tested and 4 failed, now...
Whether or not you think the sanctioning body proved it's case, this isn't a court of law. The appearance of impropriety is enough to do damage to a sanctioning body. Normally USAC can do USAC, and...
The National guys aren't even breaking even when they win. I figure it costs me 1000 a night to race, and I don't pay my crew or tow the car with a semi.
I'll take the guard rail over concrete or leaving the ball park to find telephone poles, trees or farm implements. But yes, ideally 2 or 3 rows of Armco, 10 feet of grass, and a really tall catch...
