Mr Ed, wow....you've sunk to a new low by insulting my car by calling it a Chihwawa? I hope I get to race you someday, because I'll fondly remember a stocker racer who clicked his car at the 850ft-950ft mark of Bandimere Speedway (circa Mile Highs of '98), and felt he could insult me by coasting across the finish line ahead of me to take the win in the first rnd of elims. I didn't lift, and reeled him back in...I and the fans who watched the whole thing on the former "Winston Vision" screen, witnessed my nipping him accross the stripe, by .003!!! That could be you next time, so let me ask you Mr. Ed...DO YOU WANT TO BE NEXT??? I recall another time people took a swipe at me I won the 1981 Division V Street Eliminator Championship, in a car that makes my current car look like a show car! More recently, how about my false starting in the quarter-finals of the 2007 LODRS D-7 #2 race to Wes McCann and wasting a perfect 15.940 run on a -.013 rt., only to re-race him again two weeks later, and put a package on him that made my "Chihwawa" a 1st rnd winner in a rematch, by .006!!! Given your car hardly has a monster V8 in it, you have "NERVE" calling my car a "CHIHWAWA"!!! Hopefully GOD will smile on my finances in such a way that I'll be able to travel out there to E-TOWN, or to Pa., and play with you D-1 folks....I must say though, I'll really be hoping to line up my little doggie next to your Gremlin and we'll just see who has the biggest bite to follow their bark!!?? I hope to come out there, because knowing you as I do, you'd probably freak-out over having to travel more than 300 miles (one way) to go to a season of drag races---you're safe in D-1!!!

As far as this thread is concerned, although I'm ok too with the way things are, that still doesn't make them right, and what's fair for the Hare (the 2nd car to leave in any kind of handicapped race), should be fair for the Tortoise as well. However, since it likely won't be anytime soon, I'll just revert back to that which produced my '81 Championship...bracket racing to hone up my finish line skills, because as you saw in rnd 1 last week, I didn't "contribute to the payees" due to my starting line performance, it was crossing the line .029 too quickly. I can fix that, and 2010 is the year I plan on doing such!!!

Thanks Ed, you've now given me the appetite of a shark on a feeding frenzy, and I intend on satisfying that hunger!!!

I'm sorry for calling your car a chihwawa.It's really a Shi Tsu.I could care less about your heroic racing exploits in this thread.But if you must.I qualified for 11 straight NED Div 1 bracket finals,when you actually had to drive your car.Raceway Park Pro ET Champion 1984,top 10 11 times.That and $2 gets me on the NYC transit train for a ride.
God has nothing to do with coming East.Save your pennies and maybe you'll be able to make the trip.Be sure to save up enough for the return trip.
And finally grow up.Judging by your post you're either drunk or a big baby with very thin skin.
Cheers and a big woof woof to you.

PS: you were still a contributor.You sucked at the stripe.That's my biggest problem,making it close enough to win.I'm working on it.

You and your names for my car....I won't stoop to your level anymore, because I grew up a long time ago. Moreover, I won't get into the GOD element much with you, even though thru such a thing as his blessing my lottery numbers (example) to become a big dollar winner (or thru a sponsorship such as what Tommy Gaynor & Mark Faul, Dan Fletcher, and my buds The Emmons Brothers were blessed with this year), that could go a long way towards getting me the extra funds to not only come out there once, but as often as I'd like. I am saving my (pennies), which is why I only raced twice this year, and congratulations on your ET win, and your qualifying efforts...however they don't intimidate me any more than mine should you!

I put up with a lot, but what I take I can also dish out (and I've had my share of opponents who've found that out). I know when to say when so I'm hardly drunk, and I'm hardly a big baby with very thin skin. What I am is a man that isn't intimidated by you, and will look forward to lining up next to you at any drag strip anywhere in America...as a friend of mine said, "HE WHO LAUGHS LAST, LAUGHS BEST"! Thus, if/when I get the chance to race you, I hope you bring your "A" game to the line, because mine will be there waiting for you and your "NILMERG"...and you best hope and pray that I'm NOT the one laughing, cos I'll be R.O.L.O.L.!!!

If you're waiting for the lotto or a magical sponsorship to emerge ,that's pretty pathetic.I could care less what races and championship series anyone has won.I'm racing them on that day,not their rep.And PLEASE lose the cliches.He who,A game,blah,blah,blah,blah, my ***.
So save your pennies and maybe some day you'll make 3 races next season.The purses need the money.

Moderator, can we please lock, or delete this thread? All the rationalizing, explaining, name calling and other banter on this thread won't change anyones opinion (no matter how wrong it is) it seems.

Mike,

I'm sorry for my part in this, but I wasn't going to sit by and let Bill get assalted by Ed like he was with out saying something (he did this earlier in the year--or late last year-- in a similar thread)...it didn't take me long to understand Bills logic (because of how he explained it), and another racer clearly showed how Steve Wann could've benefitted from the logic Bill rec'd years ago about this matter in his race with Jimmy DeFrank last week.

This will be my last post on this topic, as I have better things to do with my time than go back and forth with Ed, like getting ready for 2010.

On a brighter note, I'm glad that you're one of "The Few, The Proud, The Front Wheel Drive Stocker Racers"!!! I'd be honored to race with you anywhere in this great country of ours!!!

Hey Mikey,when the thread comes up go out to the garage and work on the Olds.I'll send you out to Arizona.I'm too scared to run the Arizona Flash.Besides I'm not used to giving the spot.God forbid he red lights.I'll have to leave immediately and foul worse.It'll make the papers that night.
