Wendell Scott vs. Willy T. Ribbs - Willy in the News Today

General

My opinion but people from the southern racing scene seem to have trouble only when its rubbed in their face. Gender doesnt matter ------- unless its ugly---maybe

Chime in please: Kyle Busch/Elliott Sadler

General

Ok Tim--I guess im going to muddy the water here.

Bristol is not a big track--remember how it was getting around Columbia,or maybe Savannah,or even Mrytle Beach?? Things get tight and sometimes you bump someone accidentally or maybe on purpose to say I want by or maybe to ease the car out of the groove enough to let you by(now mind you ,you better be faster than whoever you just moved or retaliation is short coming). Is that what happened?? Or maybe it was an accident (maybe,maybe not) but it was Bristol and things get tight there,even in a truck.

Elliott can drive and drive dang good but so can Kyle--but Kyle is calculating his every move,Watch him as he sets up passes on the spur of the moment. He is up on the wheel from the word go whether its for 19th place or up front. Not many drivers out there today are up on their game like that lap after lap.

Watch when one is moving up to the front and he is picture perfect ----then oops he misses a mark and up the hill he goes or worse,the wall is there or another car. It happens every race,even his brother Kurt is not as dedicated as Kyle is. I was never in a group racing rather I was on my own when I left the home area and yes I got moved,spun out more times than I liked ,,but also I would try every means possible to get around a guy that was holding me up before moving him up the track---Its racing.

Now lets see how much I get pushed around here for my take on Kyle.

At least I dont think a trip to the Beach office will be called for unless someone catches someone out behind the car and wants to have a heart to heart talk real close up...!!

A MOTTO ALL OF US SHOULD LIVE BY--AT LEAST OLD RACERS AND FANS

Trivia

My Motto:
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention
Of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body.
But rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand,
Diet Coke in the other, body thoroughly used up but waving the checkerd flag thats Totally worn out and screaming
"WOO HOO what a ride!"

1986 Hayride 500

Stock Car Racing History

Wow this is a rare photo of Tim Richmond. I was getting into trucking pretty heavy about this time and heard about the hayride. If I had known it would have been this big I probably would have tried to help out, but not a lot you can do with a heavy haul rig. but this photo is almost priceless:

ANOTHER NEW KID ON THE BLOCK

Current NASCAR

Yes first time I have seen him come into the picture so quick

ANOTHER NEW KID ON THE BLOCK

Current NASCAR

Joes boy won the Indy for his dad. Joe had been trying for quite a few years ---but his efforts are complete now.

Paul has paid his dues I think by driving for several different owners,not to mention he had a top notch sponsor following him. If you watched the race today you also saw a new face appear in victory lane.. First time I have saw Him appear this quick. Did you see him ??

Please read and comment

General

A tough call there sir---yes there are old soles out there that still read and enjoy especially in racing.

This could be done on a need to basis quarterly with with requests taken by phone mail or internet then you could run off the required copies and mail them, if it takes off then look into the distribution factor.Would $10.00 an issue cover the costs initially ??

JUST WHEN YOU THINK YOU HAVE SEEN IT ALL---------THIS HAPPENS

Historic Speedways and Ghost Tracks
