    JUST A THOUGHT TO HELP THE BACK STOPPERS

    Kevin G. it would be nice if Tri City stepped up and made a event such as Lenny is talking about. Have a night where some of the proceeds would go to the back stoppers, invite police, fire and ems in for a special price or even free. Do some thing to recognize the first responders, such as have...

    NEXT TIME THINK BEFORE YOU POST PLEASE!!!!!!

    I have a similar story from about five years ago at Eldora. I drove a hauler for a race team who was competing in the dream. We had just unloaded, put the car up on the lift and removed the tires. With some down time before racing started and the pits open to spectators I looked back to my left...

    CDL/DOT problems - anybody had any?

    The DOT rules and regulations can be a tricky and can look like Chinese if one has no idea what they are looking at. The easiest way to be in compliance with federal and state rules would be to, 1. Have a commercial license Class A 2. Have a medical card and drug test 3. Have hazmat endorsement...

    schrader fires hessert as arca driver?

    Not saying this is the case for KSR, but it has been made public knowledge in the past that there is a lot of pay for rides in the top levels. Just for example Josh Richards is one who has done this and there are others from dirt doing just exactly that. I wont release the other two drivers...

    Ironman 55 Make up date

    Just to shed a little bit of light on one certain subject, that being if the track is reworked or more water is added. All touring series dictate if the track is reworked and if water is added.

    Horsepower in a late model.

    Most local guys around here are in the 750 to mid 800's with some a tad more. Now for your big touring guys they are in the mid 800's to low 900's with some pushing more horsepower. One thing to keep in mind on high horsepower is during early season when the tracks stay tacky the driver is able...

    Kyle Busch-Hornaday incident

    The bad part about any situation like that is this. 1. the driver gets pissed and is blinded by the I am going to get even and show the other driver I did not appreciate that. 2. He not only wrecked two good trucks, but could have seriously hurt or even worse killed Ron for turning him straight...
