Erica & Greg?

[cutta]

Why is this daddy write check stuff so important when Greg Anderson has one of the most well funded teams racing in Pro Stock. Ken Black spends plenty as well. The funny thing is that most of you have failed to realized that Pro Stock is no longer about being a good driver, you have to bring money to the table as well. Thats probably the only reason that Dave Connoly and other great drivers are not in a car now.

As far as Greg is concerned, people dislike him because he one of those drivers that doesn't always know how to come back down to reality after a loss. When he loses, its as if he's still in the car and takes him a while to settle back down. Essentially, most people would like him to lighten up a little bit when things go wrong. Unfortunately, everyone can't be the same, so the each his own. On another note, I love how Allen and Jason can't find time to joke around in the midst of the seriousness of racing, it fun to watch and in my opinion how it should be. Serious in the car, back to reality once you get out.


Also, why is that when Allen Johnson goes fast, people refer to the Wayne County Deal? Why not just express that I dislike mopar and acknowledge that Roy, Jim, Mark, and Allen are doing a great job to make their car fast?

Cutta, you make my point in your first paragraph. If Erica didn't have her father buying the ride Dave Connoly would be in the seat. Last I checked Erica's father doesn't own her team but does provide backing so she get's the ride. Dave is a better driver, everyone knows that but he doesn't have someone paying the team owner so he doesn't drive.

Ken Black should be spending money. He owns the team, Erica's dad doesn't.

Like who you like, I don't really care. The days of Glidden and Nicholson are gone but I do respect those who spin wrenches much more than those who buy their ride.
