Can't deny Ballou is on a roll such as we haven't seen for a while and I wish him continued success. I see no reason to choose one over the other, but just to enjoy the successes of both. |

Exactly....thank you. I don't understand why if you follow usac it's the top of the game...best drivers. We race Robert and Brady if not both, one of them every weekend. There is a lot of talent outside of usac. Until someone pays for my stuff to go to Kansas and Pa, Ca...ect, and rain out with no rain, Il stay in Indiana. Great people great racetracks. It's sad people can't understand that if a car/driver is running points other than usac, they have no talent or there's no competition for Brady. We're in the top 5 in mscs, so we'll keep chasing the 11p till we get one. Don and Brady are good people and have if figured out, as does Robert.

I have always had such respect for drivers like Gary B, Tom Bigelow, Larry Dickson, Rich Vogler, Sheldon Kinser and others winning in Sprint, Midget and Dirt Champ Cars. I've been watching the next generation, Dave Darland, Jon Stanbrough, Tracy Hines, Jerry Coons win and compete in the USAC classes which now seems like "since Hector was a pup".
So to see Robert Ballou start to run well with these guys repetitvely, really means something in my book. It's great for Brady Short and the excitement he and all the Indiana sprint drivers have garnered in recent times. People are paying attention, they know you can race, and appreciate it! Keep it up! |

Geez....Brady or Ballou? POWRI or USAC? Bloomington ice cream or Dairy Queen? Can't we just celebrate the best of both worlds and call ourselves lucky to have the best ice cream, er, racing in the U.S.?? 🏁😜🍦

I got to chime in one last time. Absolutely no slight to Brady, he's great, I love watching him race, but people, the question was this year who's been better. Those of you trying to suggest that Short, or even t-mez are having a better season are speaking from the heart instead of your head. I counted 16 usac races run this year, and he has won 7, almost 50 percent, from Kansas to New Jersey. To me that's pretty freaking amazing!
