Whats your join date have to do with anything? Just cuz you have been here for a while don"t mean you"re always right. Not looking to argue I just don"t see your point there. Plus every time I"ve talked with Kenny Brown he"s always been nice and talked like he"s known me for awhile

I’m also Kenny Brown’s son in law. So regardless of how many posts I have, I might just know a little bit more than you on this topic. And keep talking like you have all the info, because it’s becoming very obvious to those that do know, that you don’t. Good luck!

He accused me of coming on a forum to say something which I took as he thought I joined just to say what I wanted to say. Next time I'll PM my post to you for approval before hitting submit button.

I realize POWRi is coming to Haubstadt soon and you have to talk nice about him.

We were just talking about your father-in-law at Wente's bar in Chesterfield last week. Heard some interesting stories and opinions good and bad. Was even hearing jokes about a custodian running a racing series.

The saga continues. WAR went head to head with USAC's Midwest wingless springs this weekend. WAR had 6 contestants while the Midwest group had 24. I may be wrong, but I still think location plays into account. WAR was at Monet Speedway roughly 3 hours from KC, but Midwest was at Central Missouri Speedway roughly an hour from KC.

The USAC group makes a point to schedule on top of WAR and taken a few WAR venues. There are not enough cars and it seems many are pissed at POWRI. WAR was starting to progress more and more east anyway, there were not many KC area races last year. I can see WAR moving to being Illinois based, (not sure of the status of the POWRI Iowa Sprint Car League they were working with), leaving western Mo/KS to the USAC group. That's the only way I see it working.
Not sure if they are willing to work with Valley Speedway on their weekly/ biweekly sprint car show (Valley is POWRI now and has cancelled a lot of their shows for sprints since this started)

Gee, seems to me you have a personal vendetta against Kenny Brown. Whatever job he holds outside of running POWRi should not make any difference. Even if he is a janitor at Anheuser-Busch are you saying that all janitors are dumb and can't do any else???

In my opinion Kenny Brown overall has done a fine job with running POWRi and gives the fans of Illinois and westward other opportunities to watch midgets and non-winged sprint cars than having to travel to Indiana to watch USAC events. Yes, before you say it I know USAC runs other places besides Indiana but their base is the Hoosier state and most of their schedule is there. I would think a race fan would be delighted to have choices of where to go and possibly catch open wheel racing closer to home for them. I have dealt with Kenny Brown via email numerous times and have only been treated with professionalism and a quick response in all my dealings. My wife and I have attended scores of POWRi races especially midgets and have enjoyed each and every one of them as much as USAC or any other series in the country.

If you think you can do a better job running WAR then why don't you step up and offer to run the series and see how you do with it!!!
