Seems like this might be an opportune time, especially for those of us in this thread, to throw the :checkered: on any past poorly worded or misunderstood posts, some of which I regret making myself. Let's move on. C'mon back Don...it's racing, it's entertainment, not life or death. In other words....what Rob said. :thumb

With that in mind, could I prevail upon you to cut my man Chuck a bit of slack. I agree with the Chuckster on almost nothing:

Not on USAC (best racing on the planet for the past 50 + years IMO),
Not on race formats (I'd leave things pretty much as they are),
Not on ******** (O.K., I'm in the minority here),

But, so what....Chuck doesn't need me to front for him, but the man is a race fan. When his work permits he is at The 'Burg.....or Gas City.....or North Vernon....or wherever. I figure his many years of support afford him the luxury of sharing his opinions here at IOW......wrong, though they may be. ( :wink just joshin' ya Chuck)

Marv, who may have had too many margaritas this evening at El Mariachi and might regret this post in the a.m.
