It wasn't like that in the northwest. You had guys you just as soon not have to face but there was a lot of ways to lose back then(Breakage). Today you have the Fauls,Langs Waldos(back then to)Fletchers,Biondos I would just as soon avoid. They don't always have the fastest cars in their class but are great drivers and they do win a large portion of the races. Does that make sense at all?
