There's a difference between listing your name and e:mail address....the e:mail address is what the spammers are after. I've provided answers within my span of knowledge (limited perhaps but it's always 'free') and links to various excel files and such to be helpful. Even tipped over the line by providing some runs data courtesy of Nitro Joe's stats (but always giving him a plug). Lately; however, it's become obvious that some racers are gaining 'alias' identities to stir the pot or otherwise abuse others or the forum in general. That is BS and to post on the forum with a suspect user name leaves the person open to suspicion. Seems to me if somebody wants to genuinely come on the board and ask for help they can at least provide a name and competition number. My 2 cents....

Well said Jim,
Maybe the forum should make it manditory to use a real name and or number.

All I wanted to do is see if anyone is pulling out of Pomona. I didn't mean to start a war of words.

Thanks Don. Not trying to make trouble

Nobody was messing with you Neil, you quickly edited your post with name and number. The thread was hijacked by those of us sick of no-names with ulterior motives, sorry. Good luck, probably fair chance that 2 or 3 will drop out so just keep an eye on the entry list. When I was hoping to get into Reading 2 years back I was checking at least 3 times a day and snagged an entry.

And yes, we all know who "the worm" is.....

There is only one "Worm." I remember him posting under a different handle though.

People usually start withdrawing the weekend before the race. With Stock entries only at 71 the chances are very good that it will drop below 70 before the cutoff date. Just be ready to enter when it does.
