Trackside

i was embarrassed to run in that main. i know i'm not perfect (far from it in fact), but my opinion is that racing is a game of chess. you wait for your moment to make a move, but don't create a situation where you screw yourselfm (now if i start following that rule)
. way too many people think if they pass 5 people in the first lap that means they will win........hang on i'm getting ready to blow all of you away.......
i think it was skip that said that the best thing about running mod is you have the pony's to either catch up or get your self out of a pinch. in stock we are just too damn close (except for a select few) and it makes for good and REALLY BAD (yesterday) racing. scotty said it best when he said. "THIS IS NOT HOW WE DO IT AT TRACKSIDE" think about it. see ya'll on tuesday.
Stogie - let me know when you are going to throw that radio to the ground, i want to be there. i've only heard about what happens when an M8 smacks concrete.

Hackside.....the word was ohhh sooo fitting for that main sunday. I want to know who got hacked by who......I know I bumped Nick Twice and waited for him and I hit Mark when his was spinning in front of the drivers stand but that was an accident.....other then that I ran Brad down by cutting corners here and there for the last 5 laps b/c I was shuffled to the back and had nothing better to do.....and brad needed to get his nice little race car a little banged up too....even though Segi help some too in the early laps....but all in all it was a fun race from my point of view. And I did pass 4 cars or so in the first laps but they were all over the track so what happend up front?

So now what do we do to stop this problem?
Lets hear some ideas.
Like - Stop kissing the a$$es of the people that do it all the time.
-Get Scotty a spotter/enforcer so he can call the race and they can call names and wave the black flag. LOL
I keep telling my self "NEVER LIFT" but I always blink first.

all i know is that i was trying to stay in line behind stogie and ken then this orange streak blasted me in front of the driver's stand. then thats when kevin and i got caught in the "pinball" machine. after i got going i was on my own for most of the race till the pack in front of me started getting together. i came screaming into the corner before the Ss and nick, i think timmy (imagine that), and it might of been kevin again were on their roofs. well anyway when i came into the corner i couldn't see because of justin's blue lazer beam on his radio. i see the eye doctor tomorrow cuz i think my retina is burned. anyway i hit nick, marshalled kevin or whoever and timmy was on the island. then it was a matter of trying to catch steven and stogie. so if anyone feels i blantantly hit them, please say so becuz i would never mean it on purpose......i take that back i delivered timmy after i lapped him and he delivered me in the next corner, so see i guess i was part of the problem too. sorry won't happen again.
...... and if thats kissing ass, pucker up baby.....

Sounds to me like Nick got the ***** end of the stick that race. I know Mark hit me when I was wating for Nick to get marshaled after I fliped him over.....but I could not go anywhere as the marshal was right in front of my car so I had to stay in the corner but Mark was so kind to move me out of there.....
. It was at that point I gave up my prusit of the race and just enjoyed going after Brad at all costs. I know the ORANGE streak was a pinball for some of the race and caused some/most of the carnage b/c I watched it happen in front of me. There shoud be no ass kissing but if you do someone in dont forget that they can do you back just as well and lets not forget that we are playing with Toy cars on the Toy car race track for bowling trophies.....ohh wait Scotty doesnt give anything out......so what are we racing for again?????? I know that Im racing just to beat Brad or wreck him trying...
How about the rest of you guys?

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT'S GOING ON? I go to work and signed on to my favorite place to see whats going on and BAM! Sure sounds like Trackside is a swell place to race. I don't know what was going on with everyone Sunday, but I think it was just one of those bad days for everyone. I am very disapointed to read all of this stuff about he did this ect. Qualifing went fairly well Sunday, just that the Expert ":-)" Stock A was not the cleanest we have had at Trackside. We can all come up with reasons why it was ugly. The main thing is, that is not how it is done at my facility. Most of you have all been racing with us for along time. You know me, you know how I try to regulate or control things on the track. Calling traffic, emphasizing sportsmanship to everyone. mainly doing everything I can do from the booth to ensure eveyone has as much fun as possible. What happend Sunday was to say the least weired. But it won't happen again. The fun will be back this week and clean racing is fast racing will again be the norm. We will chalk last Sunday up to a full moon, Friday the 13th or just bad JUJU. Mr Losi nailed it. No paybacks or stuff like that, lets just go back to having fun. cont...

cont... The fun will be back and we will all have a great day of racing. More entries came in today for the US Touring car championhships. I am working on a current count and will let you guys know soon. We are currently well over 100. Deadline to receive your free Race shirt is Dec 24th. You can still sign up after, but as the soup natzi says " no shirt for you" See you guys soon. Take care, Scotty

no controversy here, just people a little miffed because they didn't get a hot pretzel or nachos at the track on sunday. so we took it out on each other.............on a different subject.............
are there going to be some of those kick butt egg rolls at the novak this year. i think scotty's mother in law made them last year. for those who missed them last year you may want to ask for them. that is real reason why i can't wait for the novak
