Re: What The Other Half Says About Us
While sitting at breakfast on a Sunday during a National event I asked my girlfriend if she thought I was going to win. She said...."not if you're dead late again".
Mind you, she knows zero about racing. She's also said...."Where in the world is Medford??" Oh ya one more....."Dan Fletcher beat you again??" Doug Lambeck |

Re: What The Other Half Says About Us
This has probably been heard over and over but I remember hearing it from a lady in the stands at Green Valley YEARS ago during a points meet. "When are they gonna come around again?
While not exactly pertaining to the theme here my mind flashed back to a time long ago. Was late getting to the track one night for some grudge racing so I was moving quickly to get the car unloaded. The straps came off and the girlfriend/wife/ex-wife was asking me if "I was going to use those......uh.....what-are-they called......uh the long things"........At this point I was halfway ignoring her while trying to get to the lanes before they closed. Fired up the car and I could still see her mouth moving. I could not hear her and I had to shut the engine off which made me even more frantic. Again, the question about the long things. Fired the car up and was moving backwards when I realized what she was talking about. Cars roll off of trailers much better when the ramps are installed. |

Re: What The Other Half Says About Us
I could go on for days with the crap i hear when i go racing....lets see "why do you have to go racing again this weekend,if its only 1 day then you shouldn't have to go, do you have to go to this one",then i say well do you wanna come,
'no i don;t want to sit in a camper all day long" call here a few times at the race,what are you doing"sitting at home watching tv"(duh)...."when you lose you better load up and come home don't hang around and watch your friends race".(thanks for the kinds words sweetie).."oh you won great how much did you win, can i get my hair done then"..those are some of the better ones i hear when i go racing....here is the best she has ever done, it was after my son was born. "you don't need to go racing anymore your a dad now"..my answer was my dad raced when i was a kid look how i turned out,this was as i was walking out the door to go to a combo race 3 years ago..i also get the your never home comments all the time. i say im home monday-friday and usually only race 2 weekends a month when the season comes in |

Re: What The Other Half Says About Us
these are pretty funny, the only complaint i here is 'why do we have to leave at 5:30 am? cant we leave later?' that happened just yesterday. on the way back the comments are ' that was a fun day' or 'i like seeing your reaction when you break out' (which doesnt happen often but it this case i was solidly under the index which looked like i won the round haha)

Re: What The Other Half Says About Us
"When can I drive" which has now evolved into "When do you think you'll have my car built"
I can't complain. |
