That's my boy Schultz for you! I'll bet anybody right now that his ears turned bright red when he typed that.

My ears will be red for a long time after that mess. This might be beating a dead horse. I know this is hind sight, but out of the winners that got there race done, and the finalists left in competion. Only 2 racers would have qualified for the TOC. So we sat there for 5 days to get 2 more cars in. Don't get me wrong I'm not bashing the guys who will get in (there final has not been run yet) I'm just asking was it worth it?

To give IHRA a chance both scotter and arron need to do the right thing. Fall on their swords and go work for monster truck dept. Scotter if your reading this you know im right and Im sure your already looking for a pink slip every payday so do the right thing and quit. Many people on this site keep sticking up for these guys and their desisions and its cost us all in unorganized disasters at many events over the past few years.

I sent an email, made the suggestion to cut up what was left in the allstars. Draw a number for the goldcar, which why do you need another gold card, didn't everyone who was in the allstar race already win a gold card for winning their division or the spring allstar race? As for the TOC I said they should use the old best of 5 divisional and 3 nationals points system and figure who would have been champ. Take 1500 outta the pot, give 1000 to the champ, 500 to second and then equal shares to everyone who attended the race. i.e. everyone gets their $623(guesstimate) and the champ gets an extra grand, goldcar and trophy, second gets 500 more. Thats just my 2 cents.. let 2009 be done and get ready for 2010 for those that will still be able to afford to race in oh 10..

what a joke! i feel sorry for anyone that traveled more than 20 miles to go to this race, they did not need the sportsnationals at all, it was for them to make money. my thought is to split the money ONLY to the ones that bothered to show up. pick a winner out of a hat, again only to the racers that were there. the world championship this year is a joke anyway.
mac and wife, miss seing u guys at the races, god knows they needed more than 3 s/r cars at new york! i guess you spoke your mind and got a nasty e- mail. this happens a lot.
shultz. good seeing u again, and yes, his ears were beet red!
they only good thing i can say is i enjoyed seeing all my freinds, and playing "cornhole" with the "rebels" chris, ej, and rickey. and watching greg fowler come .006 from makeing the toc.
