http://www.tulsashootout.com/profile...r=62010&rt=sch This is link to the shoot out results. Click on link then click on expand. Frank Flud won it and was one class act. Most of the early leaders took one another out and Frank managed just to stay out of their way. It's kind of funny how much harder a driver will drive when chasing that miniature driller, totally forgetting about that big pay check at the end of the race. In racing at the shoot out I guess most of those guys figure you are either a Hero or a Zero and go for the win at all costs.
There are already some race videos up on you tube that I think are better than racing boys did because they did not bounce around so much. The Echo tecs looked to me to be the Midget of the future. There may have been some slightly warmed up versions at Tulsa this week but they put on one heck of a race and have that Midget sound to them, they also have enough torque to do a really nice do nut at the end of the race. The problem will be policing them, They leave a lot of room in their for improvement and I am sure there are racers out there willing to spend whatever it take for an edge, and that will be their downfall if organizations do not exert a lot of restraint on them.

Micro
I think we would be correct in just calling him a "Driver and an awfully good shoe" He doesn't need the adjective "Micro" to classify him. The ones that get my goat are the ones that travel up and feel it beneath them to step back a notch or two. One of my favorite sayings is "Be nice to the people you meet going up the ladder, because you will meet them again going down." Guess some folks were such A holes going up they might not want to meet some of them same people again coming back down. Honest Dad himself

Oklahoma did have a nice field of "Lightning Sprints" "Mini Sprints" etc etc back in the early 90's. Texas did as well. That was the start of the ASCS and the Oklahoma guys ran with them as a support class. They took of for a bit but never got over that hump to stay going.
