Cornfield Racing

GaryGoFast · 07-13-2009, 07:41 AM

Took my 8.50 index car to Etown Fri nite and I could only muster up 9.40 passes, Still sorting out some issues with very little seat time in it. I qualify as an alternate, 1st rd I leave with my opponent and he's gone, out in front by easy 10 cars, I'm waiting for his nose to drop and waitin and waitng, Well he takes the stripe by a tad too much, his 8.44 to my 9.40 in an 8.50 index....ooops. Havent had that happen to me in years,

I sure do wish I cold run the # too, maybe I'll get a handle on it but I still rather be lucky than good,

. Dont get me wrong either the racer in the other lane has some chops for sure. just one of those things that dont happen too often.
By the way I did post my name.

Gary,

from one full-figure gal to another (and your former neighbor) -- take the ice cream machine out of the trunk... it'll run quicker that way!

Hope you and your family are well.

I got out of the car on the return road and said to him:

" should i slap you now or do you want to wait for your wife too."

and thats the truth

He asked why and i told him what happened. I got nothing to hide this has happened to me to everyone,

You're right , happens to most...

But then again I dont see anyone but you coming here and announcing to the world how badly someone else screwed up...and then going on other sites posting the vidoe of the races...

Why dont you tell everyone how badly you have screwed up ?

Your really missing the pt, Its not about what he did or I did, its about a unique situation that doesnt happen often but you must have an axe to grind here, So who are you again and how much seat time do you have?

Nuff on this subject.

I have no axe to grind....I just dont like it when I see a racer bashing another in this manner and taking no responsibility for doing so...

Who I am , how many passes I have and how much seat time is not the topic of this post...Its all about you....

In my book its ok to tell stories of how a screw up happens, as long as its the poster telling of his or her screw up...

I'm positive that the racer that made the mistake in this situation feels like an idiot, and doesnt need to be told in a public forum by someone who is not a friend...
