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!?
