the 'smart folk" according to ceralli got called out and shown he's anything but! So while you're backpedaling, offering apologies, you owe me one too!

We ain't friends, we don't talk and you don't know me so again, NOTHING you stated came from me!!

Re: ISLAND DRAG-WAY..Hackettstown NJ-Good news.
 

You and any one else can come anytime? I very protective. I just needed to know who and why. I'am there to make money not chase people. You can come anytime, make sure you look for me, I'am always there.

I am sorry you were not able to buy Island a number of years ago Bob... and maybe I am wrong but I thought you may have tried to do that at one time...

Anyone I speak to says you've done an outstanding job out at Numidia and me and a good friend are heading out there for this weekends races and looking forward to it.....

P.S. I fixed your light tower unit and it is good to go......Last thing I did last week before I took a vacation week.....

See you this weekend...probably friday night....Rich

Re: ISLAND DRAG-WAY..Hackettstown NJ-Good news.
 

Thanks Rich, looking forward to seeing you guys there. I did offer to buy Island but I was turned down. Even had a friend try and he also was turned away. See you this weekend, sausage and peppers this weekend. Make sure you look me up when you get there. Sammy told me to say hello for him.

Re: ISLAND DRAG-WAY..Hackettstown NJ-Good news.
 

Will do Bob.....and I am honored that Sam would think of me....The man is a legend and I am proud he thinks of me as his friend.......

Re: ISLAND DRAG-WAY..Hackettstown NJ-Good news.
 

Rich, let me tell you why we are loyal to Bob

4 years ago, Sunday June 14th, Rick Constable asked me to go to Numidia with him on a Sunday for Summit points race. I hadn't been to Numidia since the early 90's and my last time there/first time there I won "Heavy" Eliminator. Later that morning Rick and I are in the lanes and Bob came over and thank us for coming. Much to my surprise, Bob, knew my name, knew I had sold my Chevelle and knew I had bought the Firebird. I was surprised because frankly Bob and I never really talked back in the day when he raced at Island. Maybe a hello on occasion because he pitted across from us. Rick won that day and so did my son.

The point is Bob is a racer as well business man and truly appreciative of his racers/customers and from my observations, he treats everyone that comes in the gate like family. I know he has me and my son, quite the opposite of what I, he and many others experienced at island over a great many years.

Thank you again Bob and thank you Rick. Miss you buddy.

Stay on Bob's good side and never tell him he's funny.
I made that mistake once. Once.

Ed I think of Ricky all the time......and especially when I walk past where he lived and worked,,,,,,and the place where he was stricken...

A damn shame someone who lived for nothing but racing was struck down at a young age,,,,,,


One of my last memories of him was him patting me on the back for getting down to 3 cars at Islands Wally race last year...He said,,,"not bad for a part time racer",,,,,, Sure made me feel good after a tough loss....

He was a hard working great guy.

Re: ISLAND DRAG-WAY..Hackettstown NJ-Good news.
 

He was Rich. I'm a bracket racer today because of him and I race at Numidia because of him.

He didn't know it and neither did we until he was gone but he was also the glue that held our group together.

See you Saturday.
