[LEADERS EDGE]

Bloomington has the odd night when they have less than 20 cars. So if someone, say Brady Short because he is a damn good driver like Billy Puterbaugh, so if Brady beats Christian,Hollingsworth, and Gaines, then somehow because there where less than 20 cars; then it wasn't a good win? C'mon now. We all know that is B.S. and an insult to the guys he beat.

Just because it's Putnamville and people don't like D.A.; that doesn't mean there isn't some good cars there.

Billy also put on a pretty convincing show at Kokomo last week and that was against the toughest competition in the state on that night as it was a KISS show, so like it or not; Puterbaugh has nothing to prove to anyone. At least in my opinion.

Don't get me wrong; I am all about racing against the best, but I also understand the expenses and logistics of running a team and making a sound financial decision on when and where to race on a given night.

I think for anyone; driver or fan, to want to say that a win didn't mean that much because of who WASN'T there is pretty rediculous. If it was a case of Steve Kinser going to some hole of a track and just beating the guys to a pulp all the time, then I could see what the point is. Even Steve would find it tough going to come to any of the Indiana tracks on any given Sat. and beat up on the competition. Not saying he wouldn't/couldn't win, just saying it wouldn't be easy.
