I'm one of those guys that considers himself a good driver on both ends of the track. I felt like a rookie against those guys in Bristol. Take my advice, if you can't be .00 and dead on all day, save your money and stay home.
On a side note, Michael Beard and Robert Pare it was nice meeting both of you.

Great talking with you too, Owen! Best of luck the rest of the season. Maybe all of our egos and wallets will be healed up by next year, and we can try again.

Owen, likewise. I've known you are an awesome racer... If you ever find yourself up in this neck of the woods, don't hesitate to contact me if you need anything.
..in my opinion, it was tougher to go 4 or 5 rounds there than any Bracket race I've ever been to (on the bottom), including the Finals..I think Mike would agree..Getting past Luke in round one Saturday was just the start.. I was 007 and dead on and he was right there with me...It was like that all weekend long folks......040 bulb and I was embarassed. Congrats to Manny, Luke, and the Alfords, they know what's up.

the comp was unbelievable,,,I had car trouble all weekend and unfortunately, got beat to death,,,,,but the RT`s were just amaizing,,,,,,,,,everybody on the grounds knew that anybody/everybody in the other lane was a hitter and was sit on kill.........even the racers that havent made a name for themselfs were set on "KILL"
I was really surprised not to see alot of stockers there,,,,I think I seen 1 stocker and maybe 4 or 5 stock racers in bracket cars some of you guys REALLY need to get to this race next year |
