I've heard it said if you don't Vote don't *****. Likewise If you don't race don't *****. How did Your season go back it in? I have about 19 seasons in racing minisprints and have done pretty good. We have also had a lot of fun over the years. Met some great people and seen some of the prettiest towns in America. I just don't care much for "lightning" I guess Im used to "mini" but since moving up to the 1000 cc cars I don't think mini does them justice. If "USAC" would let us run with them in the D1 midgets I can guarantee we would not finish last, and we would probably be in the top 10 in a lot of races. I race with a full midget frame, I use midget body work, I use a midget tail and bladder, I use midget stearing box, My wheels and tires are the same as used by midgets, My engine is a very very high technologically advanced 4 cylinder. What we and or I have is an "identity chrisis". I don't think we have been fare with the names we have been calling our selves for the last 20 years. If you want to market something identify what it is first, dont sell sizzle if people don't know what sizzle is. If I want to sell mufflers It's going to be "DADS MUFFLER SHOP" not "DADS LIGHTNING AUTOMOTIVE".
