I would have liked it more to see Leary try that with Ballou when he was NOT strapped in his car.

My son is a huge Bacon fan and he sent the t-shirt Brady has put out in response. I don’t know how to post it sorry. Funny ****. Looks like things are heating up!! He

Pancho Stapp 8/22/22 11:21 AM

Basically Robert in a dozer into the fence and Brady gassing it going by. Caption says “Laying the Smackdown “

Thanks for helping a fella out you two lol

DirtTrackTherapy16J 8/22/22 1:55 PM

Pancho I found the Bacon shirt you was talking about, but like you, I dont know how to post photos on here but as I send this I see Chuck or someone did so that's awesome. It is just as good as Robert's!! Both are classic and honestly a piece of history knowing it goes back to Indiana Sprint Week 2022!! Great ideas for both of them, I'm sure they will sell out easily in no time at all!! Also has people and the air stirring already and it's only Monday afternoon!! Absolutely love it!!

Pancho Stapp 8/22/22 3:12 PM

All we need now is a Bacon/Ballou King of the Hill battle 😁

That is most definitely a very very good possibility Mr. Pancho!! A friend of mine also told me this afternoon that some of the profits, he didn't know how much, from that very tshirt of Bacon's, will go to the Riley Foundation...real real kool move on Bacon's part!!

Maybe Robert Ballou needs to think about it....Time to quit and park it......Like Steve Bulter did

I am interested as in why you made this statement as well. Robert is not a dirty racer/driver. He speaks his mind, right or wrong isnt the debate, some dont like it, he runs very hard, full throttle wide open, he may get into guys at times, but they get into him as well, but so do other guys. If he hits the brake every time someone is near, he will never win and neither would anyone. Robert is a long long ways from retirement. Robert is very good and has multiple Championships and this year he has been running very very well and is in the hunt for the National Championship as is JG, Bacon, Leary. If you dont like Robert, well that's your choice and thats fine, but to say he needs to park it and retire? I hope you respond, very curious why you think this way.

Hahahaha that's a damn good one there Chuck!!!! Very well could happen!!!! Maybe if he dont park the Ott Chevy, Reece will let him park the Grater!!!!

Pancho Stapp 8/23/22 11:43 AM

I am with 16J on this one when it comes to retirement. Robert has been fast and winning some races this year, Robert has also hurt some feelings. But imo Robert is along way from hanging up the helmet. As long as he has the desire and finances to keep rippin it he will continue to entertain or piss off us race fans. I have stated before i pull for TMez but Robert is exciting to watch as well. Dude is a gasser.

Couldnt agree more Mr. Pancho

Little dust up at GC, Bacon ended up on his lid

So in a shortened version...Indiana Sprint Week 2022, first night at Gas City...during the Feature...Ballou and Bacon got into each other going into turn 3...Bacon flipped hard...Bacon eventually walked clear across the track over to turn 1 and said some words to Robert and the crowd went wild. Short time later, Ballou and Leary got into each other coming out of turn 4 onto the front stretch...Leary flipped hard...eventually got out, ran across the track over to turn 3 and drop kicked Ballou, fell on his ass, kicked him again...crowd went wild...later in the week, I cant remember which race but I believe Lincoln Park, in Bacon's post race interview he called Ballou the Ballou Dozer...now its turned into tshirt ideas that I believe both will sell the hell out of and to boot Bacon is doing something very special and kool in helping kids by donating $5 of each of that specific tshirt to Riley Foundation. Im not taking sides on who wrecked who, who's fault was what, who did or didnt do what on purpose. I have my thoughts and opinions, just like you do, and just like each person on here and not on here does. All my response here is saying is facts that happened.

Nathans the butthurt report is absolutely classic!!!! I am straight rolling right now, in tears laughing so hard. Now what I will say is as soon as I seen Brady's counter shirt, I like Robert, noticed right away that's a Loader not a Dozer...wondered if anyone caught it, obviously Robert did. Smackdown is gonna be great regardless but all this could very very well add to the excitement!!!!

Sadly for Shane, like him or not doesnt matter, his victory kind of in a way got forgot about due to all the other extra hype and activities in that particular race!! One of the older guys in the field, even though he had to beat my guy JG to do it, awesome win for Shane and Hodges Motorsports!!

Thanks. I actually saw all that on Flo but forgot about it (A) Doesn't make as big an impression on a lap top as it does live! (B) I don't follow the soap opera stuff that much, I just watch 'em race (C) All this rivalry stuff makes it more exciting, right? I just hope nobody gets hurt (D) Both T-shirts are great. I have way too many but Bacon's graphics always grab my eye :14:

I hear you sir, I agree with all that too...not into soap oprah drama crap either. However, sometimes when other people start it, in this case some of USAC'S best drivers, it can add excitement for the fans and races for sure. I just dont want to see someone physically hurt or equipment/cars getting trashed. Other then that, let em **** talk and see who backs it on the track kind of deal for me.

Don't twist the knife that is already in flagboy55's side.

On a sidebar: I, too, could do w/o the King of the Hill deal in its present format.

Not trying to start trouble guys, but I kind of like it:D:D. To each his own. Hope to see you there.

Re: Robert Ballou thanks Bacon for new T-Shirt slogan
 
Since Bacon is donating $5/per Smackdown shirt sold, I’d like to see Ballou do the same to a charity of his choice. Maybe they could keep track of the donated dollars and the loser has to buy the winner dinner? Keep the rivalry going, and get more fans involved too, all for good causes.
