Congrats Dan, but I hate you too! LOL

Don, tpoh815 says that every time Dan wins. It's a joke!!!

Yeah it's so easy and fun travelling the country wondering and hoping when/if you're going to win and be able to pay the bills. Why not try it yourself awhile and call yourself a touring sportsman pro. You'll win all the time too if it's so easy...

Re: Dan Fletcher
 

I can remember Dan Fletcher running two cars at a race in London Ontario where he lost in Super Stock and won with his other Camaro in super pro many moons ago, I thought at that time that he would become a good driver if he only concentrated on just one class, I was wrong, he was perfecting his craft. I'm sure no one really hates him personally, they just envy his courage and conviction, because most of us would give our left testicle to be in his shoes. Congratulation Mr Fletcher

Congratulations .... Dan....

Say Mark, You haven't done to bad for yourself so far this year.
How is it that you become one of those "Touring Sportsman"?
Seems like it takes either a long term career of winning, and slowly gathering things like 2 or even 3 cars. A motorcoach and a stacker, and some way of paying the bills at home.
Or you fall into money.
Or have earned enough in your career that you can now race while semi-retired.
I can say that Dan has definately earned that track time advantage that he has and continues to earn it everyday, which explaines the level that he is at now.
I'm thinking I need a bracket car. It sure would be cheaper then the way some of these guys have done it.
Congrats to Kevin in both finals
Congrats to Dan on continuing the legacy.
we all know that brings out the red bulbs and .100 lights!

Don wishes he could do what you all do so i could win like you guys do but at the present time it is not in the cards , so the only way i can beat a touring pro sportsman is with "Luck" which can show up any time cause i don't have enough seat time and practice for sure cause it looks easy being a touring pro sportsman cause they win more than all the sportsman combined .

Re: Dan Fletcher
 

It's more than just seat time.It takes understanding the dynamics of what we do,starting line,finish line,dialing the car,etc.Even still some guys can have enough seat time to grow award winning hemorrhoids and still never get good at it.It's called talent.

Don agrees

For those who think my hate you joke is malicious. I remember racing with Dan in the mid 80s and thinking this guy is just great at what he does.Tom his father was 20 yrs ahead of his time. He taught his son well and now the torch is being handed down to Thomas. So that being said I wont hesitate to hate Thomas as well. Dan I was worried that you were in a slump so I know your looking forward to my next post! LMFAO.

Re: Dan Fletcher
 

LOL Haddock...

I was in a slump. If it wasn't for Comp I wouldn't have won much at all in the last few years. With all of the advantages afforded by being a "touring professional sportsman" and with all of those wonderfulful extra laps down the track, I must really suck to win as little as I do.

Because as Don has so eloquently, and repeatedly, pointed out, ANYONE that races as much as I do would win all the time due to the TREMENDOUS advantage afforded to the "touring professional sportsman".

By the way, I hope to see you at NYIRP this weekend, as I'll be there running our family's 13 flat wagon instead of making excuses as to why I don't win and others do...
