Probably wont't be too many out there running up on on the "COUSHON". That is usually the best grove on that old track.

If you "are" very very fast watch out for that closing speed it will bite you!

You aint't never talked with Roy Robbins have you? Roy called it a "COUSHON" and I'm with him. When I was a kid I worked with Roy and if he called it a "COUSHON" I'll just have to go along with him.

Who is Roy Robbins?

"JT" he Never drove a sprint car in his life, just an old school modified driver who could drive the wheels off them ol things before stagger was ever invented, and he called it a "COUSHON". He raced Knoxvile with a borrowed car and a borrowed motor, that how they did it back then.

Well I only know what I read from that far back. My Mom and Dad were only 5 years old when he won the nationals. Good Luck at the Big E this weekend! Put an airplane gear in it and tell Doug to just be smooth and stand on it!

Sorry just had to put my 2 cents in on the whole Eldor race. Good luck to all the drivers that are allowed to run we will be watching from the grandstands since my son is not old enough to race there....and thats where it all begins why in the world would MMSA schedule a race at a track where ALL their drivers can't race. (my problem is not with Eldora every track has its own rules) but the track rules should have been checked before the race was scheduled. I think it should be a NON POINT race. Fair is Fair. I realize its "Eldora" thats why it can be a NON POINT race becasue it is "ELDORA" everybodys still gonna come. If its gonna be as big as everybody says and all these people from out of state are coming I'm sure their not worried about points. As a racer how would you feel your running for rookie of there year (and have it at this second which I'm sure he will not after this weekend) have been to every race this year and then get an oh I'm sorry I know your dissappointed but theres nothing I can do. How about I just average out your pts and give you those for THIS RACE....uuuhhh how fair is that to the rest of you guys..... really. Hey dont worry about that because he changed his mind on that lastnight. MAKE IT A NON POINT RACE IS WHAT U CAN DO!!!!!
Good luck guys we will be there to watch

Keri
(Daniels mom) and if you have a problem with my post talk to me not my son!!!!!!!!
