and stock has more than a few turds that can?t run 100mph too.

That often would be ME.

Also. did I mention the very slowest Super Stock (in actual ET)
at many races out West.

Is this Ed Fernandez? The former 14sec AMC Gremlin Stocker racer that I use to debate with? If you are then you were a "turd" racer yourself when you ran that car! If you are, then I wish I would've made your acquaintance at last year's PEP BOY'S NATIONALS in Reading, Pennsylvania! If you are, then I wish your former Gremlin would've been my 1st round opponent (with you driving it)!

As for my (as you call it, "turd" racer), I'll share some facts with you:

1. I have two Wally's that I earned in <100mph cars (one of which was actually called "Oscar" back in the '80's), circa 1981 D5 Street Eliminator Champion, and 2020 D7 Phoenix double-header Stock Eliminator 2nd race winner (fyi, the 1st race I made the 1/4 finals in)!
2. I also have two Cactally's that I earned in 2022 and 2023! I know you don't have one of them, as you would've had to race in the "Arizona Stock/Super Stock Association" combo races to have a chance to earn one, and you're there in New Jersey!
3. I've been in three final rounds at as many Stock/Super Stock oriented races, and guess what, my so-called (by you), "turd" is 3-0!
4. My worst reaction time at Maple Grove Raceway last year was my 1st rnd rt. of .019, with the others in order being .016, .013, and. 018! My motivation for trying to win the race would've been enhanced mightily if you were my opponent in that race, whether you're the Fernandez, Ed, or anotherone!?

Gary, Ed Fernandez passed away a few years ago. He WAS quite a ballbuster but he wasn't really a bad guy if you got to know him. I kinda miss him.

I'm sorry to know this Billy, because I was actually hoping to make Ed's acquaintance at Maple Grove last year. I may not have agreed with him on some things, but I admired Ed for racing a 14sec AMC Gremlin, which per whoever this other Ed is, would've been a "turd" racer too since his car as I recall was a sub 100mph car as well, so he's badmouthing Ed's Gremlin too!? Who is this guy?

I don't know either Gary, but I would love to bring him out of retirement, get him behind the wheel of his son's car for at least a day in early April at Vegas and watch the underside of his beautiful white Firebird in my rear view mirror and stare across into his eyes at the stripe.

And just possibly, you know maybe...show him how easy it is to beat a turtle. Or not. That is the mission anyway, but I am told he does not personally race himself.

Will he take the wheel? Who knows...

I'm just an old slow man...with a dying
(And I really want to do so in the 1/8th mile where there really is no visible stripe), wish now to race Ed Bigly just for
Switzerland and giggles and the pure fun
of it in my slow turd. (He just spelled
turtle wrong).

I think this is exactly how grudge racing was born...back when we were all young.

Lol. It was s h I t z not the the software switched it to of Switzerland. Lmao

***It is also exactly why and how Bracket Racing was created. So we could settle it driver to driver and not really car to car or wallet to wallet.

Stockers are sometimes first because it is the most fun you can have right after you get out of bed, and it sure beats getting up to go to work.

If it were up to me we would race at 10 PM once I am fully awake and the Sun has long gone down. But I am a nocturnal owl of a creature born on the wrong side of daylight.

says the old man that finished 71st and 82nd in Stock the last 2 season in Division 7 getting lucky once each season to advance to the 2nd round.

That said, ain't retired and my son's car is MY car!

Again I'm easy to find every weekend and I plan to compete again at the Flings but you too won't leave your duck pond and will be nowhere to be found with your turd at any of the BIG $ races I'll be competing at

I realize that we are not quite 2 weeks into the New Year, but so far…...this is the most entertaining post of the year ….RIP Ed Fernandez….

I'm not surprised that a guy that's been dead for almost 2 years and who hasn't posted for over 5 years gets dragged into this thread by a hater of his. Again, haters going to hate!

Meanwhile this chest pounder finished 44th in Division 7 this past season in the LODRS and only got lucky once getting to 2nd round!

In 2023 he was a no show in stock eliminator and in 2022 he finished 51st, this time he got lucky twice getting to 2nd round!

2021 was another stellar season for this also ran and 1st round runner up finishing 50th and getting lucky once again to advance to the 2nd round!

Ed Fernandez ain't here to defend himself so I'll will. This guy Gary Hampton has no business calling out anyone no mind a guy that passed 2 years ago. Yep his car his a turd and he's got no driving skills!
