LOL! No axes to grind. The old rivalries were fun! I'm curious about facts, though and you guys are awesome with that (mostly,lol)! Tradition and history (legends, myths, facts, superstitions, rivalries) make this sport greater as the years go by. What made me so interested recently was that I read a post on another forum about the bounty Bernard has announced for the Vegas Indycar race. The person posting made a comment that Bernard was turning racing into a circus, as if he was doing something that had never been done, diminishing the sport and that 'pure racing' could only be found in sprint or midgets. I was disappointed that the seemingly knowledgeable poster had either forgotten, hadn't experienced, or never heard about this truly awesome piece of American Sprint Car Racing history...... the bounties won! I'm not gonna be the one to enlighten her though. If she thinks it's pure...... well maybe ignorance is bliss and I'll let her keep thinking that. We never cheat, sheer talent alone gets you to the big tracks, and everybody holds hands and sings kuumbayah.
