Re: Sterling Cling?

It was a weird deal. Initial start of Heat 5. JMac got an early jump from the outside, Cling from the pole didn't go so the flagman was indicating no start (held out green but not waving). Cling...

Re: Kunz hires Kyle Larson

While it's sad that Dave is no longer in the car, I think you guys are going to be very entertained watching Larson. The kid is fast but exciting. I predict a number of Lealand McSpadden type races...

Re: Midget Racing Marketing

I think that the fact that there are 4 pages (so far) on this subject speaks volumes. If no one can agree on how to fix the problem (or even IF there is a problem) then why should there be any...

Re: New Unfriendly Fan Rule

I don't think you can automatically assume that because Casey shares a last name with Ron that the two run in lock step with each other. From my time around the both of them I can say that Casey IS...

In the case of the Prius at least, there is no mechanical connection between the shifter and the gearbox. "Shifting" the car is software controlled. If this problem is software oriented and not a...

Re: dished Midget Hoods

I never did. The thing that I bang my head against the wall on this is that no one (including you Mr Moore) ever seems to provide what they think is their definitive solution to the problem. Oh you...

Re: dished Midget Hoods

One benefit that you can't put a price tag on is experience. With any of the rental options you mentioned you gain team experience. They know how to set the car up and make the needed...
