Super Gas Burndown
Did anybody notice the burndown @ Pomona between Jim Hughes and Ed Olpin.....I know Ed and I know Jim....Ed is an alright guy but he has this staging technique that drives you crazy. Certainly if he raced in Divisions 3 or 1 he would be taken out to the woodshed and corrected......
He will not stage first....so he can put both bulbs on quickly....so Hughes of course would not let him do that...and they were sent to the back of the line.....and again Olpin would not stage.....then he finally went in and Hughes could have hung him out or put 2 bulbs on quickly (like he does) but he didn't....he just staged like normal..... My thoughts on this are.....lets decide the race on the track....not with some goofy staging technique.... Ed beware....especially in Division 1.....( a lot of mafia types) you may win a round or 2 this way but it won't compare to the penalty....sooner or later you're going to do this to the wrong guy..... your buddy Rock... |

Re: Super Gas Burndown
Hey Rock what's the deal? Is it because Ed's car is an old **** wagon and he needs to go in deep or is he just a little low on confidence and wants to make sure he has his finger on the button first? I love running people like him. It spruces up a boring 9.90 run.
How do you handle the Ed Olpins of the world? Asta |

Rock - Check out the first round results, he played the same game with someone else. I'm thinking Jim (in 2nd round) was ready for him after seeing that.

Re: Super Gas Burndown
Just took exception to the questionable, unsportsmanlike conduct of a multi-National/Divisional champion calling out a guy on an open forum that I don't recall ever being a regular to the rhetoric on this site.
My bad though.............the people specific to this site have apparently NEVER played "games" at the starting line, or any place else at the track for that matter!!!!! Whos' kidding who?????? IMO this Haas "character" owes Ed Olpin an apology!!!!!!!!!! Act like the champion you are!!!!!!!!! I'm done..................... Brian Webster S/ST 3557 |

Re: Super Gas Burndown
I thought the burndown thing was a lot better than complaining about diapers....or whatever...Ed just happened to be the subject....

Re: Super Gas Burndown
I don't think Ed's staging practices are dirty or illegal....just annoying....which is probably why he does it....it seems to work for him....
Lets move on.... |
