Looking foreword to the indoor USAC Knepper 55, a warm up to Chili Bowl. After the great USAC/Powri Leffler Memorial at Wayne Co. Speeday that will be hard to follow. My interest in the DuQuoin driver entry list is the car count at USAC Turkey Night GP. 20-21(?) cars. Shocking... now PAS in So...

Bummer, with I-55 canceled I sure hope we can get another date with them. Jamie

What do you think...? Hey King Eddy, when you going to offer chicken candy? That truck would be pretty cool outside your business. JP

NASCAR has fined and ordered a driver to Sensitivity Training. UMP noting that there drivers can say naughty words now will require Sensitivity Training to offenders. Also all drivers must hold hands before each race so they play nice. Piquet is a jerk for what he said, but sensitivity...

Can we ask (beg) Donnie if the vintage cars can be added to the August 9 show. It looks like the final show with all classes (just the mods run with the WOO late models on Sept. 13) It is a big blow show out with a 100 laps, kids stuff, etc. etc. could be a long night. But it's worth a try...

Watching Kick Kenpper at Belle-Clare Speedway last weekend got me to thinking. Knowing that Arnie Kenpper ran the Indy 500. I looked in a old book The Indianapolis 500 by Jack C. Fox, published in 1967. It lists Arnie racing in 1965, 66, but also lists a Ray Knepper not qualifying in 1951 in a...

There is a very active vintage stock car racing in England, at dirt/paved oval tracks around the country. In England vintage racing is called BriSCA Heritage Racing. Just like over here, old racers are dragged out of fields, old barns and back yards. Then restored to their former glory days. And...

On a gloomy day here is something fun... In British stock car racing (really, big block mods) the flagman or Mr. Starter as the Brits call him, gets a real workout... standing in a hurricane of wind and dirt he flags the race, with some unusual quirks. Since the '40's when oval track racing...

With Danica Patrick, 30, dating Ricky Stenhouse, 25 I think Danica's new nickname should be The Cougar! Now there are a number of blue jokes one can think of here... "She hopes to XXXXXXXX some talent out of Ricky..." Try to keep it clean guys, Jimmy's watching.... ha!

Hi Guys, I have been restoring a old center steer modified (late '60's), it has a Profile Power Steering box. After getting the old buggy running and terrorizing my neighborhood, checking the brakes, steering, etc. Loading on the hauler, I felt the steering develop a lot of free-play, almost...

I’m sure some of you are of the opinion that NASCAR has really messed up the history of the points championship with the Chase. I know, I know, get over it, it’s the way it is. But for old guys like me, the what if... after reading a article in Autoweek, to part quote: “...that only three of...

Have a vintage modified, it a real hassle to get the wide tires in the inclosed trailer. Would like to bolt on some narrow rims with skinny tires to make it easier. Need not be pretty, old tire mounted, even better. Jamie 636-527-4627

Funny stuff... Watch Waltrip and hear (?!) in the passenger seat of a V8 Supercar with Jason Bright driving. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wX5Ap5Atsg&feature=player_embedded

Wife’s Diary: I thought my husband was acting weird. We had made plans to meet at a nice restaurant for dinner. I was a bit late, but he made no comment on it. Conversation wasn't flowing, so I suggested that we go somewhere quiet so we could talk. He agreed, but he didn't say much. Asked him...

I'm putting on my marketing hat again. This sunday is the Easter car show at Forest Park in St. Louis. This is a big event, 10,000 to 20,000 spectators. I have never seen a local dirt race car there. This is a car enthusiast demographic. Do car people know about the great racing in our area...
