Any news from King Of Tq's last night at Whitewater Valley? Thanks! Bob

Bob, I saw where Nick won.

Well, good for him, always good to hear one of our own guys, having some much needed good luck, helps pay for the trip. Thanks, Jimmie, good to hear from you also. Bob

I think 23 cars. Really like that track.

Yeh, I haven't raced there since 07, but I hear and see a lot of work has been done since then, last time I was there they were just getting a good start on the new stands and stuff, sprint cars were there that night, most left because of some thought it was unsafe, I think the ones that stayed were glad they did. It's a bit of a haul for me, with no help, and both of my drivers have real jobs, and aren't real keen on thru the week races. Don't take anything up there that is round, it's hard to keep a hammer from rolling off the top of that mountain! Bob

It got really dusty and slick. Decent car count they pulled some of nick's fuel to send out not sure who if anyone protested it.

Well, that should make him happy, lots a talk, and no ck, I'd bet he's OK, just the way he has his Hilborn set up, mine gets really eye burning too, and I know it's how I have it setup!

Nick said he got paid, so it must have been as I figured, OK, Dokey! Bob! Way to go Nick!

He put new tires on last night. Made a big difference. It's rough racing when your broke.

I know it, I got off to a bad start this season, had just enough to get to the first race, and just won enough for the next one, then had the ignition fail the next two, now the rain is keeping me from the close ones! Bob
