Mike I strongly disagree with you!!

Nope, both wrong. Gotta go with a Bazemore driving again, new Nitrogate issue, or the ultimate.......What's Evan Knoll doing nowadays?

Hey Jim!
...Posting real names was never an issue with real people!
The 'mater... as most things, has changed over the years and
truly serves different people overtime...for different reasons.
The political correctness is fine, but the ignorance is sometimes not.
After discussin this with everybody's "MA' Green,...(I found the
tape Ma.!)...she is only on the mater to make sure the players have it right
when it comes to her sons race teams.
Before it was officially annouced by Joe Hartley Racing that they were going on FULL tour (well funded!), I broke the news on the mater ONE WEEK bfore there was an official annoucement...(pulled my thread-with NO comments, 2 days before official anncmnt)...Just told me ALOT about the crowd...
.....There are also alot of new free'er speaking boards out there!
PS-...Hows the RETIREMENT Jim....?!!!

Like I've said Kevin, Real Name or Not, I've always tried not to get Personal in my post... as a teenager running around the pits at both The County and The Beach, I heard things and saw things which shaped how I feel about some of the Grand old men (and Ladies) of This Thing.
I do believe that it was 'Ma' who 'dressed me down' one evening at the track for smoking... about a year or so before I made my first pass one Wednesday night... and yes, it seems nowadays, I just see her post about Team Morgan...
The Hartley post I did see, again, but did not have any thing constructive to say or add... and I do get tired of reading, 'oh that's great'...
But, one Pet Peeve are the "it's been one year ago today", I don't want to sound cold, but I lost someone I cared about for almost every day of the year.

This place has lost a lot of it's substance and grit. Whether that is good or bad is up for debate. I say bad.
Yeah the name thing chased out a few knuckleheads, but it also chased away some good people too.
Up 22%?...how does that compare to the days before the name changes?

Probably due to the economy.........
Maybe we should offer a limited number of discount memberships?

Not dying Joe...
Just different. I have less time to spend due to recent marriage, research, my studio and work so I catch things hit or miss.
Like Karl said, if I don't have anything to add, I usually don't.
Have seen posts and thought about commenting but just haven't because after reading it was just more negative than I care to put out. It's still fun to read about who is doing what, the occasional what I dids, the pictures and the how, who & whats.
** Thank you Shannon for keeping things humming along and giving us this opportunity.

I haven't been a member for as long as most of you have,I lurked on here for a year or so before I signed up,I have always enjoyed and frankly have been amazed at the knowledge of the sport that many of you have. Honestly I would like to post more but I don't feel comfortable replying to people I've never met. Obviously alot of you have met and have developed friendships,hopefully someday I will be able to meet up with you at the races. For me this is still the best drag racing board that I know of and I've visited a few and I'm hoping it will be around for years to come. Jeff
Or 5 years ago for that matter?
