I have always wondered about this guys like darland, stanbrough,cottle,just to name a few of hired drivers, if they owned their own equipment if they would run local shows for 1200-1500 to win races and not complain like the rest of us about start money or tow money, know somewhere along the way they have owned their own stuff, not trying to pizz amyone off just asking,you don't see tracy hines running to many weekly shows if any so with out field fillers don't think they would be many cars at your favorite track maybe they would all be special events.

People wonder why drivers and owners do not post, well being shot down for there opinion is one of the reasons they stay away.
Don Moore puts his money into a car and has what I believe to be some answers to some of the problems that face racing today, he gets on here and is called all kind of things and on one post was told he should take his midget and just go home if he does not like the way things are.
Ok while I am pi@#ing people off I think the people that baited duke Cook should have been banned as well, most of the people that made fun of Duke or said things knowing Duke was old school and would not run and hide with his tail between his legs like most of the keyboard jockeys teasing him would. And it is my opinion the same keyboard jockeys that got him going could not carry his jock let alone his helmet bag.
How about the guy from the west coast sure some of his post where off the wall but that did not give anyone the right to treat him the way some of you did.
You put your last dime in something go out and try to put on a show and not get at least your pit pass back then come on here and talk about how happy you are.
Go ahead and tell me if I don't like it to take our car and stay home because we and a bunch of other race teams are real close to doing just that.
I respect all of your opinions but the people putting on the show should at least be shown some respect, and yes I respect Don Moore.
Bad day your right, do I feel better, not at all

Jerry I think it was obvious I was teasing. Please dont mix the warm Bud and the keyboard.

If you can get the Indiana Sprint Car drivers to unite as one... Heck, we can call them the Indiana Sprint Car Drivers Association. I would applaud and say job well done.
I just want to thank all the drivers and car owners who invest their time and money and risk their equipment and lives so us fans can watch racing. I think that gives them a right to strong opinions. Where would we be if they all stayed home

Not Drivers but it is pretty obvious that the Silver Crown OWNERS have united for years now. How's that working out?

You really think my point was field filler cars suck? The whole point of being a part of a competition is to be the best. As long as you are racing to be the best... YOU DON'T SUCK!
I'm also not against tow money. I've spent a few hours in my life trying to get racers more money.
Not to beat a dead horse here, but is there tow money this year for Kokomo Klash? I've always wanted to run there but with my suck a$$ 360..( For Bill) I know I'll be looking for tow money to maybe pay my pit pass.. Anyone know?
