Eating Crow for Sammy Swindell

Chief Wahoo · 7/29/18, 3:48 AM

Ok, I have to eat some crow here about my Swindell remark

. He had a great 3 race ASCoC week finishing
Angell Park 10th
Jackson 6th
and Knoxville 2nd

These were definitely not cherry picked races and he proved he can still wheel a car around with the best. Gotta give credit where credit is due.

Sammy is intelligent = good results.

I've seen Sammy win 3 times in the past 2 years, twice with Allstars in upstate NY & once with ASCS 360s in Colorado. All were pretty dull races in NON sprint car Meccas, & he was the main attraction for me (plus short drives!)
Just shows that a Hall of Famer past his prime can beat weekend warriors.... but i like to see the old farts do well

Now if he does well at Knoxville, it will be AWESOME!

Wow. The bullet and the child sucking hind t**t. I remember the days they would both likely be in the top 10 of any given race. Ocaisionally getting old sucks.

I like my crow with a cold beer when I have to eat it Chief.

Makes it go down a little easier. I've eaten it many a time.

Top shelf of you to stand up and take the hit.

Just like others came to defense of Swindell, I gotta defend my Buckeye Bullet. In the Last 6 ASCoC, Dave’s had 2-4th place , 2 3rd place, 1 2nd place, and 1 win ( Lou Blaney memorial ). He’s far from getting old as well. Currently 5th in points.
