Passing.... What passing was there at Oswego by the Supers,
What passing have you see at a USAC Asphalt Sprint Car.
If you want to see passing watch MSR on TV.
Two points...
We did not bring any start and parks. Sure we could of brought
22 cars to the race but nothing pisses off a promoter worst than
start and parks.
Honestly my car won the race and I wasnt even looking back in
the back. We had started the race with what we believe was
a blown head gasket and on 7 cylinders. So Patti forgot to
watch.
What I did see was a complete sell out at Oswego of at least 7000
and when is the last time you saw that.
Also Lets give a congrads to Sondi Eden in her 2nd ever Super Modified
race to get 9th out of 32 cars. Sondi won the hard charger award
and beat 24 ISMA and MSA Super Modifieds in her second race. Might
be because she is a sprint car driver.
Bottom line we were prevented from practicing on friday but the
supers were allowed. They didnt want the sprints to have any
time on the track. Give us some laps and we will certainly run in
the mid 14's. We did the same at Bristol. We particlpated in the
fastest half mile challenge and ran one set of tires for two days.
We beat two Supers that have let not forget 58 more CI than a
410. They have more tire to turn with. And yes we do weigh
350 lbs less than a super.
Bottomline I hear all about how supers are faster than sprints.
Well I have challenged any super driver to race my sprint car.
I have no takers from MSA or ISMA. We honestly believe
we can turn 14.5 at that Oswego Track. Can anyone tell me
of a single track in the USA where a super is faster than a
410 Sprint.
As the Supermodified Scorecard Blog stated after the race ISMA
is now officially a support series to MSR. And lets not forget I
own two Super Modifieds and I love them. I believe my super at
Oswego can break the 15 second lap times. We qualified 4th
out of 33 cars, not had for a start up team. We are just waiting
now for our two new Micheals engines.

PS. I am afriad I am gonna have to challenge my sprint car with
my own super modifieds. Yes this will be a 40 lap race and I am
posting up $3,000 and I expect that to be matched. This should
be easy picking for a super modified team. I have been hearing
about Super Modifieds being faster the entire race. Than lets
have some fun and race.
Lastly: When we took Jason Blonde to be the worlds fastest
man at Bristol he had to beat two Super Modifieds. He did
with a 13.3. Than he went back to Bristol and turned a 12.9
and the fast sprint car time was 12.7. My math says we are
still at Bristol .6 tenths of a second faster than a super
modifieds. Like I said give me one track in the USA where
a super is faster than a 410 winged sprint car. Not Oswego,
Not Toledo, Not Berlin, Not No Where!
