Douglas to tune Ashley

[johnny]

If the story is accurate, I guess Corradi stays at the Death Star. It would seem Ashley's performance will suffer as a result.

I guess there are a couple of teams stocking the shelves.

First off happy THANKSGIVING to everyone. I for one am very thankful this year. I am THANKFUL that, dragracingonline.com continues to report inaccurate information, I am THANKFUL that, Brian Corradi is the leader and crew chief on our team and will remain in that position for a long, long, time, I am THANKFUL for our entire crew of great dedicated friends and teammates who promptly followed Brian and I, I am THANKFUL that we have formed a killer alliance with Morgan, Gary, Melanie their teams and crew chiefs, I am THANKFUL that Mark Oswald and Chuck Ford will be joining our alliance and work with all the teams, I am THANKFUL that we have a beautiful new shop in Indy along side Morgan and the rest of the alliance, I am THANKFUL for TORCO, Evan and Latrell and their unwaivering support of our race team and drag racing in general, I am THANKFUL that I have this forum nitromater.com to report the facts, and finally and most important I am THANKFUL for my Family.

Now, does that clear things up a bit? Look for some official press releases
outlining our plans, actions and our goals. We're talking alot of braintrusts, TORCO, LUCAS and a bunch of motivated guys.

I think this year will pretty special!

Glad to hear the crew will remain intact.
Good luck in 2007.

Thanks for the clarification, Mike..

Nice post.

 

[cstarns]

And I am THANKFUL that a first class racer takes time out of his busy schedule to bring us all up to date on his new operation. Thank you Mr. Ashley!

Thanks Mike for straightening that out. When I read that report, I thought "oh great, Mike Ashley's gonna be blowing up motors all year long!" Glad Brian and the guys are with you!

Mike, you the man. Thanx for coming on here and talking with us. We're cheering for you guys!

 

[megadeth]

I'm surprised Mike had to clarify something that was stated a while ago Brian was named his crew chief when he announced he was leaving team Schumacher!
Go get them Mike I look forward to a successful 2007 season! I just hope I'm there for your first win.

I certainly second that! Thanks, Mike for keeping us all up to date. We all know how busy you are and really appreciate the time you take to come visit us here on the 'mater! Thanks again and please continue to drop by whenever you have the chance, if only to chat a bit and say hi! It's a big deal for a lowly Super Gas racer to have the opportunity to electronically keep in touch with one of the best in the business! Many thanks and HAPPY THANKSGIVING to you and yours from the 5072 SG family.

Mike, Glad to hear about your team's plans for '07! See you in January!

Great post Mike. You need to come out of your shell more, you are far too reserved for big time drag racing.

In all seriousness, that is a hell of team you, Forrest and Evan have put together over there. I can't wait for '07 for you guys. Good luck to all involved and happy Thanksgiving!

 

[T-Bone]

Mike ROCKS!!

Mike,

Thanks for the accurate update. And congrats to you and your whole team. I'm glad Corradi is staying with you...you have a MONSTER in him as a crew chief!!

Happy Thanksgiving to you and the whole team..oh yeah, tell Angelo if you would, I haven't forgot about him and I will be sending him the photos from Vegas.

Best regards,

T-Bone

I don't know if Chuck Ford has any Nitro experience, but he's one of the Smartest Alky tuners out there!

 

[Mike]

Thanks for the support and kind words. You, know it really does make a difference to a racer to know that they have this kind of support.... Happy and healthy T-day!

Once again the FACTS ruin a perfectly good story.

Glad Mike has enough self confidence to correct the innacurate rumors floated like a weather balloon by those who don't know the whole story...rather than letting a fleet of publicists bail him out. Sorta caps the discussion.

For this we can all be thankful.

Go Team TORCO.
