Ha ha ha. I thought I recognized that boy. Jimmy drives a modified for the northern boys and now and then comes down this way to race the southern boys, and with his high dollar team, normally beats the pants off our boys.
Jimmy should be told to 86 the helmet and probably has by now. But what I'd like to address is where today's "NASCAR" racing is and has been going for many years now. As most probably know, those old ranks of NASCAR drivers and owners have been on the conservative side of the political aisle and they've not made any bones about it. But today's climate in politics, those in NASCAR today, have begun to play the game of political correct politics and something like giving the finger is a huge no no, and I can assure you that Mr. Jimmy Blewett has probably already been warned by NASCAR that if he wears that helmet again, he will be banned from the field. It's not been a year yet when NASCAR banned one of our local modified drivers, who was at that time competing with Mr. Blewitt in a race at Martinsville, to remove or cover the top of his car. Why? His car was number 01 and named the General. You know what was on top of the car and though it's been on TV, in the south and a favorite with the fans, the roof of the car was taped over because the driver needed the points.
God, when will this crap end? If you are offended by what you see in NASCAR, join the rest of the group who hate what they see in the normal everyday running of the sanctioning body. But of course, that's probably where you are anyway, nothing but complaining about what you see. Hell, you don't like what you see on the track as far as the racing is concerned, so why would something else bother you?
I'm ready to head to Australia, but my friend down there tells me that it's even worse down there. Tahiti, give me a call!!!
