To be honest after last weekend I'm not really into it like I was. I had a bad pass on Wes in the 2nd round that sent him flying and in the main the same pass happened witht he same results but in the first one I came up on him and the 2nd time I was angling toward the inside wall and hd just came down a little but being on the outside made for an ugly result. Bad enough the first time was my fault but the 2nd wasn't mine but kinda made me look bad. I don't need to take anyone out and if I do I will just tell them straight up.....period. As for the points winning or being 2nd would of not made any differance so I didn't need to take anyone out

In the one heat some things were said that where not cool but no one heard it but I did. If you want to beat someone you shouldn't be telling your buddy to hold him up so I wouldn't TQ. It is just what happens with points racing. I will say I won't ever run for points their again. I will just make sure I miss more weeks. 20 years and points racing still brings out the worst in people. I can see if we where racing for a million dollar bonus but its a 100 bucks.

Sorry for the rant as I have thought about this all week. That is why I said about the needed break. Going to look into some other types of racing and decide what I want to do for next year.

Dirt oval is huge around my area. Qual points are cool on 4 rounds as it keeps guys from TQ'ing during a rocket round. Makes it fair for everyone and pays off for consistancy.

Last week was the least amount of fun I have had since I came back. Might be better if I take a few weeks off til the new year to get refreshed.

On the new car thing.........did you decide on what to get? Touring has new freaking cars all the time and it makes it hard to pick one.

that'll be fine. i'll just return the precision and get somethin else i need. it might work, but i'd need different hardware, but i'm not gonna chance it.

I understand that it might be cumbersome in the heat of the moment but there are a lot of people at the "C" that are willing to have some fun. It's sad to see you take a break man but I guess you know what's best. I was hoping to get some setup advice from you as you have run the JRXS and know how the car handles. After all you gave me the best rollout tips yet. Don't take that long of a break, I might just catch you!!!
