If i don't say to much when ya'll congrat me, im not thing to be rude, just tryin to stay low on the rader and not get to big headed and ****y. But everything ya'll say does mean a lot and makes me smlie! Love ya - mean it
Today was drepressing, because May. 6 2006 i got my 1st and only to date feature win, and i was unable to race. Did go to belle-clair speedway with a buddy. He was running 5th, got took out, broke the axel, axel sleave, roter, hub, and not telling what else. the damage will be close to 700 bucks. But after he got hit and spun it caused a 13 car wreck. no one was hurt, just a lot of tore up racecars. 7 cars were not in the wreck.

I should be 4th or 5th in points at Western Kentucky Speedway (Nebo).
Camden would be around 10th. I have been there ever week, just not been able to race, cause of car troble.
If i counted my points right, i should be close to getting in to the top 20 in National (mid-america) UMP points.

Sorry for keeping on making new post. Just thought id share a post i made on another board.
"If you go to the drivers meeting, they will tell you they will not put up with rough driving, but i was put in the wall and was being pushed all the way around the track lastnight, the guy was trying to take me out. I'll admit in the heat race we got togather, but i had the high line and he came up on me, I backed out, he did not spin nor hit the wall. But in the feature he was doing his best to take me out, but nothing was done to him.
Also, i know at least 2 cars jumped the start. They came from the back to the front before we was even at the flag stand, but once again nothing was done. I guess the rules apply to everyclass but the hornets. Im really not mad at the track, just a driver or two."
I will not be pushed around. I may get black flaged in an upcoming race, but i am not going to be pushed around and be put in to the wall. After the race i slowed down and let the guy get beside me, and just held my arms up, at the time i did not know he was the one pushing me around the track, or i would of told him his #1 right then and there. I did once when i got hit from behind....good thing im not in nascar or id got a $10,000 fine and docked 100 points, and put on probo, for the rest of the year!

Lappy, I'm enjoying your reports. I know from going to the local tracks each week that the guys have their ups and downs. I also know that when something happens, most of the time both sides believe they are in the clear and it's the other guys who was wrong. However, there are those one or two guys who always seem to be the most aggressive and they generally get the boo birds hollerin' at them. Fans know who does what to whom out there and as long as you are good and don't spin someone or put them into the wall intentionally, they'll remember that, both the fans and the other drivers.
You look like you're doing very well for no longer than you've been at it...but of course, you've had a good teacher in your father. Keep up the good work and win a championship for us. BTW, are you planning on moving up in class sometime? Also, ever think about running on asphalt?

Thanks for the reply Buck! Your right, most drivers are good clean racers, but there are the jerks out there. I was told by a few people about what the car was doing to me. I added a bar to my front bumper in case i need to "bump draft" I have only put one car in the wall, but even all the officals were on myside but the one that counted....the flagman. I race people the way they race me. But that car last week, used most then his 3 stricks.
Iv been doing this since May 18, 2005. And full time sice March 2006. Hoping to have most of the bugs worked out of the car, cause im sure ready to bring home another win! Thanks for the support Buck! If ya ever get a chance come out this way, go to a race, then afterwards send some time out of Kentucky Lake! Sounds like a nice vacation to me!
