6157 is a very strange name. Pretty ballsy on here. Tell us who you are so you have at least 10 cents worth of credibility.

Don, the last thing I'm worried about is my credibility in your, or anyone else here, eyes.

I guess I could post weekly biased, uninformed, propagandist tirades about USAC/POWRi/Hoosier and my credibility would skyrocket in your eyes.

When someone says they don't care what people think about them, it usually means they do care, and that they're simply keeping up the facade of nonchalance so as to seem superior in whatever pissing match they might be a part of. I have little doubt that's the case here.

6157 has been Mike McCormick Lite since he/she began posting here. About two of every three of his posts are derogatory or negative in some manner.

I used to take the ******* route on this board too. And guess what? There's absolutely no point in it. Have some self respect and be concerned with how you're coming off, bud. Then again, there's no need to be concerned with your reputation when you insist on remaining anonymous, right?

is was a side note a few pages back, but the Astro Dome was run in '69 and '70. Dad told me quite a few stories about those races, but i am not 100% on the winners. Duke said Gary Bettehausen which sounds right for '69 to me. it seems like '70 was a dual feature deal with Lee Kunzman winning one and Foyt the other. Where is Bitterwind at when we need him, i am sure he knows the answer.

there were a quite a few good stories my dad told me about these races that come to mind, but regarding the winner. My Grandfather and Tattersall actually protested the finish when Foyt won. it was pretty slick and about halfway thru the feature the fast way around was cutting down into the infield thru the corners. By the end of the race most of the feild of cars were running almost the entire lap inside of infeild even down the straightaways. Dad was standing in the infield watching and signaling Tat. I remember him telling me by the end he was standing in the center of the infield next to Andy Granatelli, who i think was the promoter, backed up against the trophy and the cars were so far in the infeild he he felt like they were racing around his feet. Tat never left "the original" racing surface to cut thru the infeild and ran fourth or fifth. Grandpa and Tat protested telling USAC that they should get the win since they were the highest finishing car not to race in the infield. It didn't get far, LOL. But in 1970 i expect it would be a pretty bad deal to take a win away from AJ in the heart of Texas.

If you want to back a guy who has a total lack of respect of the race teams putting on the show, that's your prerogative.
Pretty sure he didn't badmouth anybody that put on the show at Liberty. The racers that put on the show were the ones that stayed.

I think "6157" is "Mike McCormick" :O:

I may be wrong, but I think it's more than a coincidence that they have very similar posting habits...one disappeared, and one showed up. :rolleyes:

I wonder what the odds of some indiana promoters getting together and working on a deal at the tranny plant or at the Silverdome, I think it would be awesome to see some indiana indoor racing

What would be neat, is if the track was wide enough to run a sprint car, midget, and micro on, and make it a winter series and run it a few times a month. Micros do this in Oregon and it's pretty cool.
