Division 1 schedule

[Dave Casey]

Joe, Dennis,and Ed,

I don't think the whinning had anything to do with it, All the divisions(exceptD2) have 6 lodrs races and so do we. They added Epping and dropped 1 Atco race. It is rare to have 2 lodrs races at the same track, we have had 2 at atco for awhile, but I think that was because we don't go to a couple of tracks we use to go to.

Tom, I hear you on columbus, but this scheduling thing is harder than you can imagine, especially with the multitude of events the tracks have. As far as June goes, the first weekend is the e'town nats and the last weekend is the Napierville open.

Does anyone know for sure when the Atco open or the Dutch is ?

Div 2 schedule blows as always I guess I remember why I havent raced there in years . I called there and asked about Z-Max and why we dont get more races they said they were working on it.....What do you do ?!?! If i was retired in Florida i would love the schedule not all of us are retired!!!!! Oh well IHRA and Gear Jammers are looking good.I wish the would of gave Harry the tech guy the job someone that understands us.I respect the zoot suits just like flies one swat there done.Oh well Im not gonna let them bring me down they will never understand us guess there working on there son tans.Does anyone wonder why we quit sponsoring the Divisional its because they wouldnt give us a pit pass that we were entitled to or a parking place ever to display product .We always treated every director with respect!! Bill Holt even came and shook my hand at he div. at Gainesville a week after denying us a National entry to The Gators. classy move there yah.He never got over my Dad not having a grade point and was told he couldnt race Indy he DID after racing Bowling Green THANK YOU! I guess Pops musta been pissed he runner up his first race in years there. Oh well hope to see you all the races next year I will be loaded for BEAR!!!!! My RANT Its the USA last I remembered were still entitled to FREE SPEECH.Any body got some whiskey i need a shot loll....

Just a thought but Atco may not have wanted a second race. Joe has plenty on the schedule and 2 races is not worth the trouble for him. I am sure he probably makes more money on a weekly basis than he does when we show up.

BTW Im not whining simply stating facts for the record sir yes SIr .Funny stuff a respected Pro Stock crew chief tells me I love stock but you guys are treated like a red headed bastard step child..Lol like they care straight shot no KY.But we love it I know it and u know it I think i need some sleep

Do the division 2 and division 4 directors even have each others phone number?

[KingReptile]

Im not sure when we ran Montgomery which was a great track for all of us Wesley DIv 4 director at the time used to tech too it was awesome having him there along with the other tech guys.

Looking at the D1 schedule it would appear they have put a decent amount of time between each event up here. It's not just the racers that are effected by the schedule. The Divisional support staff put in a lot of time to give us an event to run at. Leaving some room in between events in case of rainouts only makes sense, just remember how October went up here.

Kind of makes you wonder if Arnold wasn't right in deciding to sell his Camaro, doesn't it? Says a lot about the state of our sport that a guy who loves it like Arnold does decides to quit.

I'd say Harry didn't WANT the job, just like Wesley wouldn't want it. Even if he got the job, they wouldn't let him actually do the job. Funny, Harry came to our pits at Reynolds, but the new "director" never bothered.

Do you really think it would make any difference?

Arnold had a enough of it,Its really too bad we see him often as he comes by the shop.We had a lot of good times racing with him we traveled in a pack.Life goes on and on what can you do and he loved it bigtime pb still does but he pb felt like it just wasnt worth it.Arnold and Lynn have been doing a lot of traveling and are enjoying site seeing told him I was happy for him less stress and less BS.
