    Much harder than I thought it was...wow...who knew?


    Seriously, I only spent two seasons in roundy-round racing. It was my experience that there was a LOT LESS room for setup error and more room for driving error. This was after 3 years of road racing. The racing was much more intense with the shorter races and lots of passing. Didn't care much for the bump and run tactics.

    Just another example of open wheel stars or theirs family's going NAZCAR??

    Ive always liked "coach" Dan Amon, and with his brother, Chris Amon's, bad luck in F1 do ya really blame little brother for jumping ship?

    Now that was big news when Chris Rutherford went ovale-ovale racing....!!!! But do you really blame him ether? With the CART / IRL break up and him stuck over there in CART after that 2nd place photo in the '97 Indy 500, I bet all he could think about was winning at the Brickyard like his dad Johnny. But now he'll have to do it with fenders....too!!!

    And then theres all them shots of Pablo Escobar's favorite son JPM, in that Texaco/ Havoline Dodge? Happy Harvick better watch out grabin John Paul around the neck, next time he might get a Colombian Neck Tie ? AND when he came back to ovals why diden't they go back to calling him Juan Montoya again? That Pablo crap is just to F1 for me.

    Mash the gas!

    I know that this is a hi-jack but.....SORRY.... Did ya ll ever notice how Cole Trickle looks so much like that guy in Top Gun....its scary.

    Default Knowing

    Chris well, he's the Patron of our Car Club, he would fully endorse what his brother "Dan" said, in fact it would bring a tear to his eye
