Chili Bowl on HBO commercial
 

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

This is going to be great, since I can't make it this year !!

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

This is cool it will be covered, but it's too bad they are only doing 1 day. Wish Race Network was covering it, they would probably have covered each day start to finish - plus I don't have HBO, but I do have an Internet connection.

neat

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

I don't believe you need to be a HBO subscriber. Just like the Prelude to the dream was earlier this year. You can just but the pay per view if you have a digital or HD box.

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

this is great. i can watch the race on t.v. and chat about it on redline racing chat. sweet!! :greenflag::applaud::thumb::respect::Steer

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

Thank you to the people that make this possible, it's about time.

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

This is great that a midget race is going to be on HBO. On the other hand, don't look for the promoters to add anything to the already worst paying purse in the history of auto racing based on the income and size of the event. Promoters win again and racers lose.

DM-10 Will you be taking one car only to the Chilli Bowl, and who will your driver be?

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

The only thing I'll be taking to the Silly Bowl is a plane and enjoying watching all the teams walking out of there on Saturday after they've had their pockets pick by the promoters. hahahahaha

Look for us at Fort Wayne and DuQuoin.

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

DonMoore10 I cannot believe you are not going to take me up on my offer to buy you a RR when I saw your car in the pits at the "silly bowl".

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

hahahahahaha Call Lanny Hahn and Emmett Edwards and tell them I want those 5 star hotel rooms, a special parking place in the Silly Bowl building plus a private jet on call 24/7. Hey... the Stewart team can sleep at Motel 6 for once, for cryin' out loud. And how 'bout waving my little trailer around all those big NASCRAP type haulers that always take two hours to park.

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

If you go to a midget race to make money or pay the bills for racing
your car you have already lost. And trust me you won't have any fun.

If you go to the Chillibowl to have fun and I think about 99% of
the contestants and owners do they have already won before
they even think about the biggest midget spectacle in racing history.

The only loosers are those who wish to bad mouth and redicule the
only race that brings all contestants and classes of people under
one roof.

This is the house that "Lanny built" and you are all welcome to come
and participate and race if you like. Lanny will take your money
and try to provide you with the best racing entertainment money
can buy.

Lots of love, Don Moore 10.

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

Man I want to bad man!! I've never been..... seems to be the thing and my classes dont start till that monday... so hm.....

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

About to make my first trip this year, anyone ever sit between 3 &4? Got tickets in EE and wondering how they are, they are also pretty high, 33 rows up, too far from the action?? Also, what is the beer situation, doubt you can bring it in right?

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

TRENT,
LLOYD & THE SHORTBUS WILL BE THINKING ABOUT YOU :Steer:Steer
DRINKING ALL THAT BEER & WATCHING THE GIRLS FROM HOOTERS & CLOUD 9 :D:D

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

I emailed Dish Network about this and they knew nothing about this event being on PPV. I hope it is simply because they aren't race fans in their customer service department and it will be available to DIsh customers.

Don, who's driving for you in Ft. Wayne? I'll see you there.

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

When I have went in the past our seats were right in there... I think like rows 26 or 27. You're in great shape! I wish I had the vacation time this year :crying:

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

Don - I am one of the few who agree totally with you. Just like the Short Track Nationals in Little Rock another event where the competitors get shafted while the promoter fills their pockets. The fans on here have never had to pay the fuel bill on a rig, buy the tires, etc and then get hardly anything from the promoter. No one in racing expects to make a profit but to at least cover some of your expenses would be nice.

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

sit in ff 21 rows up great seats, you look straight ahead to see everyth
ing .cant bring beer in , bring beer with you ,beer out there is 3.2 it sucks .we fly in our friend from kansas city brings us real beer

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

I gotta say something here on the Lanny bashing.

How many other tracks are built for entirely one purpose? Take away from any other buisness that they may conduct there? Im sure he could have some rock concerts or something in that place he could make more $$ from in that months time to build and remove it.

Would you rather it not happen?

I for one am EXTREMELY glad for a break in the dullness that is winter time motorsports with real cars on real dirt doing real slidejobs instead of huggy pole concrete indoor racing that lets face it. is more exciting with go karts than midgets or sprints. I hope another couple facilities could put together a dirt indoor track for Jan-Feb racing and even a sprint race or two.


Im begining to think if 20th place at any race paid 10 grand there'd still be complainers.

Is it expensive? YES, Do you make a return on your investment? NEVER.

Is it fun and competitive? If not, don't go.

Stepping off my box and again stating it's not my money but it seems more than worth it to about 200, more than any other event held for one class including bellville

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

BTW, I did wet my panties the first time I heard how little the promoters pay. :thumbsdown::crying:

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

Ft. Wayne is a great event and provides a damn good race. Yeah Tony is hard if not impossible to beat in the Munchkin car. Even after last years screwed up mess it still is worth the 9 hour drive one way to get there.

Maybe that is something you shoudl practice, if you don't like Ft. Wayne don't go. I think that is what Don said, he doesn't like the way the Chili Bowl is run and he would only go as a fan, and I can't blame him. I hated the way Jacksonville Raceway was run and only made two shows in 06 because of it. Haven't been back since even thought it is under new management and name. But I am not on here ******** about it.

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

It's pretty easy to pick on ol' Don here, because he clearly states his opinion on the Chili Bowl. But I'm thinkin' he's probably one of the only owners in the Midget business to come close to making money/breaking even this season.
Hell, I was hoping he'd run the Bowl....I like his dogs...:rolling:

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

Belleville is the biggest paying midget race out of all the Midget races.

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

Seven wins and a couple of seconds and thirds in the last 15 months on a very, very limited schedule. Thanks to all my incredibly talented drivers, especially to the one and only Jerry Coons Jr. (six wins) who is, by far, one of the best and greatest midget drivers in the history of auto racing. He needs to be in the Hall of Fame now for sure. Also thanks go to my mechanic, Bill Klein, North Olmsted, Ohio, and his impeccable work in overseeing and engineering the necessary changes to the Sesco Mopar/Stealth that help keep it upfront with only one mechanical failure in the last year. Thanks also to Scott and Bill Baue of Leaders Edge in Indianapolis for their advice, direction and service. I highly recommend them for all your racing needs. Also to Ron Hoettels of SESCO engines who builds one of the most under rated power plants in midget racing. It was a great year!

NOTE: The Brayton/Gaerte Ford engine is the holder of the world's fastest lap (PPIR) ever turned in a midget.

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

I never picked on ol Don. If you have good enough reasons not to warrent running the race. Thats fine by me.

What I don't get is all the complaining over it. It's the only game in town unless your off to the outback. Wonder what that cost? :)

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

You suck... thanks.....you make me smile!!!!!!!!!!!!! :doh: I'll jump in the bed and hitch man... I got rambling fever.

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

WHAT IS A CLOUD NINE?:emote20:

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

Plenty of midget racing this winter indoors. Fort Wayne Dec.28-29 and DuQuoin State Fair Southern Illinois Center on the dirt. Legal midget racing (no 700 lb baby buggy type cars with illegal engines allowed) sanctioned by POWRi, a great org, on Jan. 19, Feb. 16 and March 29th. All these races pay better than the Silly Bowl.

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

Don, I hope you choose to come out here to Phoenix for the Copper on Dirt instead of the Feb 16th race you mentioned.

I totally agree about your view of Jerry Coons. I was at the Western World earlier this month, and watching the video replays on Dean Mills' site didn't even come close to showing Jerry's talents and abilities.

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

Words can't describe how good Jerry Coons Jr. is. He knows how to win by making great split second decisions when he is racing. :checkered:

Re: Chili Bowl on HBO
 

You've seen him more than I. HOwever I've observed him racing the way Wolfgang and greats raced and thats by doing things different. Keeping yourself out of trouble and finding the spot to move forward.

Every racer has to make split second decisions. It's part of the game. The ones that win make smart ones :)

No argument from me on the Coondog's abilities!
Chuck, saying he's not bad with a wrench either and knowing how he likes the car to his style.
