ASRA S/SS race Saturday Epping,NH

[Dave Casey]

All Star Racing Association will have race #6 this Saturday At New England Dragway. This is our final regular race of the season and promises to be a great one with a tight points battle to be decided. All Stock and Super Stock racers are welcome to race at our events, membership is not required. See you there ! !

A couple of notes

THE WEATHER - - - 50% chance of rain on Fri Night and only a 30% chance on Saturday is what I see listed now, cross your fingers. Don't get caught staying home playing weatherman.

SATURDAY ONLY - -- in this case, unless something changes, we cannot run the race on Sunday. It is a MOPAR only day I believe. Again, cross your fingers, we don't want to reschedule

[Dave Casey]

The track called it early which was good as the weather didn't clear as early as hoped and predicted. We will work on rescheduling soon and post and let everyone know. It will not be this coming weekend as that is the ATCO divisional.

[Greg Barsamian]

When will the All-Star Racing Association get together with The East Coast Stock/SuperStock Association for a race? With all the great cars that run in both associations, I would think that it would make for a great race?
Maybe the board members of both associations could get together & plan one?
One year at they're track of choice, the next year at yours?

Just a thought?

Billy,
Thank heaven for yesterday's game. The eighth inning on Friday night was as bad as a root canal. I also think Tito should have brought Delcarmen in first and given Papelbon more time to warm up!

[Billy Pires]

they blew another game for matsuzaka, what else is new. That one homer off Beckett last night was his one mistake, and he pretty much made Jeter look like a fool afterwards.

Did you notice Giambi's excellant feilding the first game? lol, good thing he juices otherwise he'd be a terrible hitter too!

Don't know if you saw this in today's Globe, but I ain't worried about Papelbon blowing the lead. This is what he did yesterday morning-very classy

Telling it like it was

When Jonathan Papelbon woke up yesterday morning after blowing the game for the Red Sox against the Yankees, he hit the snooze button once. Then twice. And a third time.

Normally, the reliever would sleep in. But Papelbon made a commitment to attend a clinic with a bunch of young kids from Boston, and he kept his promise before the team's 10-1 win.

"It was tough getting up and getting out of bed," he admitted. "But I promised those kids. It's kind of funny. They were all in bed by the time I pitched [Friday night], so they started asking me all sorts of questions.

"They were saying, 'Hey, I saw we lost the game. What happened?' So I had to tell 'em, 'While you were all sleeping nice and tight in your beds, I went out and lost the game for us.' "

Papelbon said his students were wide-eyed as he relayed the gory details of his performance.

"But then I told them, 'Good teams pick each other up after a game like this,' " said Papelbon, who didn't pitch yesterday. "And that's what we ended up doing."
