Amen to that. Don is a great owner and voice for the sport of midget racing. I for one would love to see him be able to race full time in a series. Not a jab at him at all but for the resources he has at his disposal compared to other owners, Don does pretty darn good for himself.

#1-I fail to see anywhere in this thread that pertains to you or your team. The only one bringing it up is you.

#2-I couldn't be happier what happened to you after the story I heard about how Bill Benefiel royally, and I mean royally screwed over that kid on Midget Madness then you tried to smooth things over as if it was ok. What comes around goes around.

Sorry everyone to be negative but sometimes you gotta call it like you see it.:thumbsdown:

I must say I was impressed with Geoff in the Don Moore car. One thing I did find so awful wrong I could barely keep my mouth shut during.

I don't know Don from a hole in the ground so I don't know it was him, but I have to imagine it was someone from the crew was talking with one of the pushtruck drivers about the way they were pushing him off in the middle of the corner, and literally for half the race stood there and argued. All fine and dandy until the passenger in the push truck looked back at this guy and said "See, I told you he can't drive!!!" after he had gotten into it with another driver. I have never rooted for a car and driver so much after that.

And Don, this probably means absolutely nothing to you, but from one broke racer who doesnt' have money to buy his own car, or even a ride for the night, thank you for "taking a chance" on someone with limited experience. I gained an awful lot of respect for you that weekend.

That WASN'T me arguing with the push truck guy!!!

Geoff Kaiser did a fabulous job all weekend. This kid HAS it, believe me and he's an expert at setting up race cars also.

I didn't figure it was. Thanks though for clarifying.
