Do most want to remember winning a final going double 0 and dead on or take a single because another racer was tired? I don't subscribe to a win is a win and love to be the true champion when I win.
Not a real wonder why the younger generation doesn't enjoy racing stock and super stock with attitudes like this. Keep your head up Mr Stickles, your day will come and you definitely have the right attitude!

So Gator I use my real name. Do you even race? What don't you understand about it being a gamblers race. I went to Greg before they called us for the last round and told him I was done beating on my car. Unless you wish to pay for any upkeep on my car thats my decision. I've seen people leave after a few rounds in bigger races because they had something going on at home. Again their right after wining a round.
This was a gamblers race the real race was on Sunday the next day. I think Greg understood or maybe he's still seeing his therapist about it. They don't give out trophies for a gamblers race. BP
