Congrats Drew Skillman

Great job Drew. Getting to a final round at a national is a big deal and you managed to do it faster than most. The car can't do all the work required to make that happen on it's own. It's good to see your old man racing now too. Keep up the good work! Charley, the last time I checked, Drew did win class at Indy last year in a stick car, so he knows how to get that done. Now tearing the car down is a different story. I'm sure the Skillmans can figure out how to run with Bo.

I'm with Charley - it must be the cars, even he went a bunch of rounds in one last season!! Sorry dude, you set yourself up for that one.

Good job Drew. I had a hell of a race with Drew in 2nd round at Norwalk with .0025 separating us at the finish line. Too bad it was at midnight and there were 5 people in the stands to see the old mustang vs new mustang "showdown" lol

Congrats Drew!

Tim that is my whole point, if I can win in a CJ anyone can. And running 140mph in STK gives you a big advantage. Big money helps a ton.

Joe where in my post did I say the Skillman’s were bad people? The Skillman's are a nice family. I just pointed out facts after some no named clown made a post about how good he is. I’m not jealous earthier I have one of the nicest CJ out there.

Chris I’m glad to see you still have a computer that works. I don’t think any of my posts are close to Jason fuller’s.

Rusty he ran Don Fezell for class last year come on.

What is my Problem O great Blue Ovel Ralph? I race and use my real name.

F/X gentlemen! F/X!!!!

Congrats Drew! Quite an accomplishment for a youngster such as yourself! Take it one win further next time and you're really enjoy yourself! But wait til next year so you can celebrate legally!!!

buzzinhalfdozen · 07-07-2011, 11:50 AM

Yes Charley you have a very nice ride, never said you implied the Skillmans weren't good people just stated my view of them. I just thought it a strange response for a kid out there doing his best...no matter what budget he's racing on or whos money. I'm quite sure his folks didn't "buy" him those round wins he earned them fair and square. I know I'd be offended if someone posted something like that about me. Lets all please give credit where credits due.... apparently we have plenty of other issues to bicker about. BTW nice job Drew. Joe

What Bryan meant was his age. He is only 20. Not the legality of the vehicle.

Boy, everyone is touchy on this subject.
