My good friend Paul "WP" Bailey is named the new D4 Director. D4 racers are lucky to get Paul as the DD. He has loads of experience and most of all is passionate about racing. He understands Class racing and is a huge Stock/Super Stock fan.

Paul is virtually a drag racing historian who loves and understands sport along with the needs of racers and the tracks. I wish him the best in his new position.

I wonder who will be in charge at the LODRS event at Noble. The announcement states Bailey won't take over the position until Oct 1.

Evan Smith · 08-30-2012, 05:01 PM

Probably a DD from another division.

I've been told that the Division 1 director (Lang) is supposed to be running the Noble Divisional.

Evan - X2 on what you said and I hope the transition is smooth, he'll be fine, but we're sure gonna miss him, especially next week at the Englishtown divisional, the steaks were always good. Now looks like maybe a ROAD TRIP. Hey Louis [STAT GUY] Bloom if your listening put some info out, or maybe some trivia to stump em!!!

WOW! Congrats WP!

X3 on what Evan said. If it weren't for Wayne Paul I wouldn't be able to hi-jack a microphone and say "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing. I used to be an announcer at Englishtown.". Plus I credit his advice around the time I got into the sport for many late-round finishes and my one and only championship.

Best of luck and maybe we'll cross paths in the future if I ever manage to go racing out West.

I hope he is more like Dale Ham than this last one.

Lee Valentine · 09-01-2012, 08:08 AM

I think you guys in Div. 4 are going to like him. He will do a good job if Nhra lets him.
