who is the bracket racer you're talking about Bruce. Why should I be banned for stating the truth in my first post in the thread?

I guess I'm the sensitive type, but you could have worded it differently or just not posted.

Crisco, I guess we look through a different set of glasses...... I was insulted.

Sorry if the truth insulted you. I can only go by what I read on here. There have been countless threads about cost, nhra, entry fees, rules etc all complaining. If I hated it that bad I would do something else.

Nathan,

No need to be sorry, truth is good. Your post goes beyond just truth, its more about your opinion of the class racing community. like I said, you set the tone with your post. It was disrespectful and should have been reworded. If you had shown respect, I like many others would not be posting.

Sorry Bruce for taking this off topic.

You confuse passion for our chosen part of the sport for hatred. We all complain about the government too, but that doesn't mean we hate our country. We love stock and SS, it's still one of the most challenging classes out there. A lot of people don't like or understand class racing, that's fine. But you don't see us on a bracket racing or heads up racing board, telling them how they're "doing it wrong". Several bracket/heads up racers already chimed in here with their .02, long before you arrived.

To sum it up, when it comes to rules and race procedures, we really don't care what those who don't participate in class racing think.

The above is your first post. Not a good start and you are now in the same league with Ed 1320, well almost, you may not even be an nhra member and it looks like you haven't been in a Stocker for more than ten years and your avatar looks like it isn't of a class car. But this thread has had enough of your distraction. You have gotten all the attention you're going to get from me.

In a weak or poor moment of judgement, Ed Wright is allowing me to stay at his house this weekend while I am at Tulsa. I won't go into details, but I can assure you that he is not envious or jealous of anyone. I cannot say the same after seeing some of the things I have seen.

I will say something that I cannot figure out. He has a library to die for and is an incredible reader, plus his shop is immaculate. As much as he entertains us here I cannot figure out how he has the time. He must have some hidden midgets under his employ.

That may explain why I felt like my feet were being tickled all night.

Hagen,
Thanks for the comment.

Kyle,
You should consider creating several characters and writing a pilot for a sitcom. Your stuff is really that good.

Thanks Bruce. I had a book coming out, but Pedigo nixed it when he saw I kept referring to him as One Hop Bob.

I think you better set that last pin up and get out of the way. My IT guy is almost done.
