I was pleasantly surprised at the performance of a couple of the old ponchos. Kuhn driving Felker's 37x and Robinson in Webber's 77 zero chassis, with no brakes from lap 4 on.That kid can drive. Excellent job guys. I think one of Camfield's cars was either a Pontiac or a Buick not sure, but competitive none the less.:thumb

that s**t loyet pulled was uncalled for. i think knepper did the right thing on going to say something to loyet, this just shows the class that loyet and how big of a cry baby he is. he shows no respect to anyone in any racing series and just because he gets all the money in the world from his daddy makes him think everyone should look at him like hes god. i think with all of his actions in past few years he should be suspended for a while.

Do you really believe he thinks of himself as a "God"? What kind of god? The benevolent kind or an extremely vengeful one? Does he rule with kindness and a giving nature or does he shoot those down who disobey him with lightning bolts?
Why do I have the feeling that if Brad Loyet was someone who showed up at a weekly show with a 36 footer with a dually and drove exactly the same way as he does now, he would go from an unthoughtful, dirty driving, hiding behind daddy S.O.B. to an "aggressive" driver who just has a "will" to win. "He just wants it more than the next guy" is what would be said about him.
I'm not saying that you have to like Loyet or not and I am not saying that what he did should be popular, but I am saying that so many people are willing to make a judgement about someone without ever trying to talk to them. They come to the track with nice, clean equipment. The best equipment in fact. The same equipment anyone would have if they had the ability to do so. AUTOMATICALLY people start taking sides on if they will like that person or not and often once that person gets in an incident with someone else they are picking on those less fortunate than them.
Honestly, controversy is good for the sport and if people go to the track to boo Brad than thats just as good as those who go to cheer him. I only casually know the Loyets and I don't care who people like or dislike, but you can dislike someone without commenting on their financial status. That says more about the person judging them than the person being judged.
Besides, if your going to dislike someone do it for a good reason like their nose hair is too long or they are a close-talker or they disagree with your views on a message board.

im not making a judgemnet about his financial status, im saying that he drives out of control most the time. powri had to make new rules because he drives so out of control. this has nothing to do about financial status at all. i have seen people people drive the sameway he does and i think the samething about them as i do him no matter what kind of equipment they have because there is a difference between driving hard and wanting the win and driving to take the guy leading the race to win and he clearly tried to take out kuhn for the win. loyet has done this numerous times including at eldora when he tried to take out stienhouse with only a few laps to go because he knew he would be able to beat stienhouse clean.
