i was sitting in the front row when the question was asked, and being as ignorant as i am, didn't know the answer. i watched a few fans come down and be disappointed that they did not have the right answer, then "idiot boy" races down the steps and actually ran up to the announcer with the right name. i thought it was cool that a race fan got a great prize, and then was shocked when he walked by me ripping it in half, and then not only ripping it in half, but wadding it up before he slam-dunked it into a trash barrel. i'm sure his buddies were impressed with his knowledge of racing and the fact that he didn't litter. good goin race fan! bob:checkered:

TO the Bland's....

I would just like to say that ....I know you all pretty well and I have seen you give back to the fans on several occasions.. Kokomo 2 yrs ago Jeffery went to the front stretch just below the flag stand and handed out t-shirts to all of the little race fans that night. Class Act.



No matter what the fans are expressing... Yay's or Nay's at least you have the attention of each race fan present :thumb

If everyone is so mad that this guy did this then maybe someone should've answered the question right sooner. And just because a few people think it was wrong, does that mean that their opinion is more important than of those people who thought it was funny. It is a free country, and last time I checked everyone had to pay the same price to get into the race, and that gives everyone equal right to express themselves.

I am sorry you felt that it was "pretty sad" that we put a reserve on an item for charity. I am sorry we disappointed you. I believe it would have been "very sad" to have such a great item, donated by a great race driver and a great human being and have it sell for say $100 or $200 dollars when everyone knows that a lot more money can come from the item if we hold the item back and sell it elsewhere. I would have been disappointing in myself for letting it go under valued, when I know we could earn more for Kenny by selling it elsewhere. As it was, the top bidder came down and paid the reserve price because it was going to charity and because he also knew the value of a great item like that. I want to thank him for stepping up and helping the cause!
