Re: Congrats Drew Skillman
Congrats to Drew Skillman on your runner-up at Norwalk. A 20 year old kid racing in STK/SS on $5000000 of grandpa's money, life is good for some. While the kid has some skill I think the car is doing most of the work. We will see if he wins class at INDY. My money is on Bo 10 to 1 odds.

Re: Congrats Drew Skillman
For christ sakes can't we just congratulate this kid without sarcasim? I met the entire Skillman clan @ Norwalk Nats. really nice people 3 generations racing together what the hells wrong with that? Jealousy is ugly, give the kid a break. My kids raced my junk a few times on my dime, someone got a problem with that? Joe

Re: Congrats Drew Skillman
Great job Drew. Getting to a final round at a national is a big deal and you managed to do it faster than most. The car can't do all the work required to make that happen on it's own. It's good to see your old man racing now too. Keep up the good work! Charley, the last time I checked, Drew did win class at Indy last year in a stick car, so he knows how to get that done. Now tearing the car down is a different story. I'm sure the Skillmans can figure out how to run with Bo.

Re: Congrats Drew Skillman
I'm with Charley - it must be the cars, even he went a bunch of rounds in one last season!! Sorry dude, you set yourself up for that one.

Re: Congrats Drew Skillman
Good job Drew. I had a hell of a race with Drew in 2nd round at Norwalk with .0025 separating us at the finish line. Too bad it was at midnight and there were 5 people in the stands to see the old mustang vs new mustang "showdown" lol
