Re: Dan Fletcher
Jack,
There is an inside joke about this. Not meant to disrespect or down play Dan's win. Friends and I were talking last weekend about drag racers that get on rolls and win a couple of races, Dan's name came up. I just didn't think he would go and win the very next weekend. But I should not be shocked that it happened. Dan has been on a roll for about 15 years. I don't know how he does it, but he should bottle it up and sell it-he would be richer than Bill Gates. |

Re: Dan Fletcher
Steve : The answer to your question to why the touring pro sportsman win a lot is very simple seat time and practice, seat time and practice , practice and even more seat time . Most true sportsman don't have the time to do this .very simple answer

Re: Dan Fletcher
Don, That is so true. It is hard for many to even get to the races due to economy, business obligations and such. No part of what Dan does in crossing the country several times a year and alot of time away from home sounds appealing to me. When you have to win to feed your family, it takes on a whole different meaning when you win. Ironically, one of the other names that came up in the conversation was Kevin Helms, who was the runner up.

Re: Dan Fletcher
tpoh815; No need to hate him he is one of the lucky ones who get to race more than you just do what he does and you will win more if you have a race car . Just be a " touring pro sportsman" is a very simple way to win.
