I hope we don't hurt anything Karl, or else Dakin might have to go red on purpose to save parts!
Go red and run a 4.06 ....to save parts.....
Good luck this weekend, it'd be great to see Pat go a few rounds on Sunday in Ohio!

Minick, didn't Pat NOT show for a round due to Breakage last year?? Guess the parts ran out huh???

No you are mistaken (yet again)....I'd like to know which round you are referring to because I was there for all of them. Get over it man, you're not as "in the know" as you'd like to think.

Sorry, when he throws out veiled insults at friends of mine, and at the person I work for, I take it personally.

So I wasn't the only one to think it was a disrespectful post by Joe. Good luck this weekend Mike. Hopefully the weather clears up tomorrow.
Insults??? So questioning your opinion of a Racer's Budget(s) is an Insult? I'm out of touch I guess...

No, it's the ultra condescending way you come across, and the disrespectful undertone that your posts have. Whatever, I have said my piece, I'm over it.
Look Dude, I've met you and you seem like a Nice guy. I never meant to come off as insulting to Pat or the Greek, heck as expensive as this sport is; there are so many other things these guys could be spending their $$$ on! I'm glad they choose to play in this sand box.
I guess the Basis of my comments toward the Greek came from a conversation I had with Wyatt Radke back in like 96-97? He drove the Nitro Bandit FC then, and they were lucky to qualify simply because they were a low budget team. I remember at one race he won first round because whoever he was running smoked the tires, I can't remember. Is saw him when they pulled back getting ready for 2 Nd round, I asked if they were gonna make it. He said oh yeah but said "They only give you $2,000 from 1st-2nd round money, it's not worth risking for equipment for such little in return!". He even said "$2,000 a run is cutting it close even for a team like us". Needless to say the next round they just launched it and idled down the track, And this is 15 years ago! I'm curious how much it cost racers like Pat and the Greek to make even a 3.90-4.00 pass! Bet it's more than people think....

This highlights the problem with indirect communication, when reading an email, internet post, letter etc. you don't have the beneift of hearing the inflection of someones voice to get the true nature of their comments.
I guess we read his comments from opposite ends of the scale.
