Kevin Oldham a gifted writer

As a regular reader of KO's Indiana Bull Ring Scene, I felt compelled to again thank him for his work on behalf of sprint car racing and for his most recent column concerning the Oval Nationals. Kevin Oldham is a gifted writer and truly my favorite - one who describes Indiana's weekly sprint car racing at its best. Your great state is very fortunate to have such a quality writer. For those who might not know Mr. Oldham's work it can be found at Hoseheads Sprint Car Photos & News. My only regret is that I missed the opportunity to meet him in person while at the Oval Nationals. Thanks Kevin! :applaud::respect::applaud:

I just thought I might add a few comments to my post above. I don't mean to go on about KO's remarkable ability, but I do enjoy his non-racing commentary almost as much as I enjoy his reporting on races at Kokomo or Gas City, or about the drivers, characters and teams that makeup Indiana's sprint car racing community. I particularly like his memories of growing up around the Indy 500, thoughts of his father and family, the different seasons that affect his race agenda, travel and food stops to whatever race track, thoughts about the fairer sex and his work. He weaves all things about life into some truly interesting and amazing sprint car reporting. I realize that his comfortable style of story telling reminds me of my own personal memories as I get older and continue to reminisce. I wonder if he ever purchased that tee shirt for his nephew while at Perris? :checkered:

I agree with all of you... I feel very blessed to have met Kevin during my racing career, and it feels wonderful to consider him a great friend. He seems to have been raised in the same manor as my family, and really appreciates alot of things in life. I don't matter if you are a local on a shoestring budget, or a high stature driver, he can point out the good in everyone that he knows. Keep up the great work Kevin, alot of people including myself are anxious to talk to you again to share the great memories of racing! See you at the races!!
