Bruce and Jimmy,
Hope you are not speaking against Gary Richard and his crew directly. Have personally spoken to Gary about all this, he thinks the HP factors are bogus same as the rest of us! These are the rules and he can afford it so why not have some fun! If it was all about stroking his ego why was he driving the Camaro? There are few individuals who have done more for this sport than P.C. Richard. Sponsoring the Open Series in Div. 1, Nights of Thrill at Englishtown, Racer BBQ at the Englishwomen Division Points Race. Not to mention the amount of $$$$ he spends with manufacturers fielding all the cars he owns and those he employs keeping his stable running! This man has passion for this sport and should not be demonized for it!! http://www.nhradiv1.com/content/divn...7200&zoneid=12 Check out the above link! Secondly Anthony Fetch is one of the nicest young men you will meet. He is not of the big ego "I'm great you suck I deserve to win" kind you see so much of in the young hot drivers / young hired guns. To be honest Anthony does not need to be out here, he wants to run NHRA. Am sure with the right equipment Anthony would make a nice living hitting the big money electronics and footbrake races. His name won't be in ND but students of the sport would still know who he is! The issue here is with Ford, Chrysler and NHRA. Point your disgust in their direction. Kudos to David Barton ![]() ![]() Kudos to Don Fezell - No one is having a better time than he is!!!

I personally got to be the victim of a heads up first round loss to Fetch. When Fetch approached me before the run he was more than a gentlemen to me and we discussed the fact that he was in teardown the day before for five hours with him stating, "maybe they didnt get it back together right". We both laughed. He definately was NOT egotistic towards me and I think he is a class act person and the team he drives for is first class as well. Although I may not agree with the HP ratings on these new cars, I knew this going to the US Nationals and just didnt do my part in avoiding them as I should have.

For all those unhappy with espn's lousy coverage of sportsman racing do what you should have done long ago-turn the t.v. off and tune into channel T.O.B.Y.L.A.N.G. thanx again Toby as usual you've gone beyond our expectations.

I agree, Toby did a stund up job. Even though he got video of me getting my *** kicked, you got to give it to him for standing in the bleachers in a 100 deg. heat so we could all feel like we are some body on classracer.com!!!!
Big congrats to Jeff and Sammy, Shots on me in houston in 2 weeks!!! David Buckner 4772 |

If Toby ever needs a job lets all vote him in to work for ESPN it seems they need a hell of a lot more sportsman coverage personnel !

My car had 0 passes on it when I arrived at Bowling Green and 9 passes total when Kenny and I ran. I didn't go to Indy this year expecting to win anything. I thought it would be a victory just to qualify and I did do that. Maybe you should come out and try your luck since you are an authority on winning races. And I'll race any where I want and some computer cat isn't going to tell me to stay at home. What a joker?
