I am so tired of this stupid argument. I am with 0329. Unless you have smoked pot you need to pull your head out of the sand. Our government and a lot of folks endorse the insanity of Alcohol yet it is a social disaster. How many people die or are maimed on the roads each day. Family's RIPPED apart by alcoholism. If we had a race track full of drunk people what would happen? The cops would have to come. What would happen if we had a race track full of stoned people. NOTHING. Everyone is walking around taking some b#ll sh$t drug our government endorses (promoted by the big Drug Company's), Zanax, etc, etc,. I do not endorse anyone on the track under the influence of anything. I am just tired of the hypocrisy, the insanity that weed is so evil and alcohol is RIGHT.

My crate motor is going in my hot rod. The oil pan has a gasket leak. I hate oil leaks.

Modrace. F.O.

Thanks old man. That is a great idea. KT, did you have a hard time walking away from racing? How long was it till you could got to a modified race and watch from the stands, let alone go in the pits, hell that would be like an alcoholic going on a tour of a Brewery. I have done it twice and it sucks every time. I got the car all washed up to take pictures to sell it, and just driving it around the yard got to me. I put it back in the garage and it is not for sale. Yes, I am crying like like a little B#@ch.

DIRT license really chaps my *****. My son and I will be splitting the driving duties. He is going to run Novice. It is a pain in the but to drive two classes in a night. The novice gets no pay to take the green.I thought to just have my son drive but it would be expensive, I would be dumb not to race in the sportsman class and get money to take the green. Now I have to buy two DIRT licenses, A full containment sea. And a Hans devise. I think that will cost close two grand that was not in the budget. Another thing that really ***** me off was when the Patriot sprint tour came to CMP the pit fee went up but my pay did not. Why the F**& do I have to pay for the Patriot sprint purse???

Are we going back to the chip rule and not the gear rule?? Also, do I have to install the bars that support the top of the cage. I am all for safety but the Hans devise and full containment seat is going to set me back. I am already questioning if I can afford to race this year.

Thanks Sunny! Yes I think that a Dirt series race at a non sanction track that runs AR tires would ***** off the weekly racers, at lest the lower classes that cant afford to go buy two more sets of tires for one race. It is just not good business. I am looking forward to this year. I feel bad for people like my brother who put together a street stock, that was really a pure stock to run with the street stocks. The street stocks are now pro-stocks. Then they say that the street stocks over at Dundee can run at CMP. Sunny, you have seen those so called street stocks. They pull the left front way up in the air coming off the corner. I helped the 32C for a series race at Dundee and when I herd the class that was on the track take the green it sounded like Mods. I walked to the fence and saw that they were street stocks. What are the motor Rules at Dundee for those cars??? The class just is not a starter class any more. It is WAAAYYYY to expensive! I could go on and on how street stocks are in no way shape or form anything close to stocks. The class is a complete mess. Oh yea, what does first place pay? NOTHING! No one wants to get into that screwed up mess.
