Gee, a win from the pole in Posseland! How did that happen?
I thought that only Outlaws won races from the pole, while Posse guys passed cars to win - what gives?

talk about not leavin the porch, those part time racers that call themselfs outlaws didn't even wave on the way by! i have more respect for the ones that did stop to race, their racers! i guess the rest get too much money from their sponsors to drive the fancy rig up and down the road?

Shepard is the best guy in Central PA right now easily! Four wins and there have been a couple of weekends where he did not race at all and could have if he was a full-time racer.

I have to agree, although that could change by the end of the weekend. I think the partial schedule really fits Shepard well, he always seem to enjoy himself, but now since he's only running for wins and prize money he definitely seems like he's got the best of both worlds. He has always timed well, so it's no surprise he's a force in the time trial shows. He may be the best combination of being fast at time trials and being fast in traffic that PA has right now. He's not exactly in a bad ride either. A lot of people think he's too brash, but I love it, why shouldn't you be excited about beating some of the best sprint car drivers in the country?

To use a phrase from a self-proclaimed expert, who forgot more than you or I know BRR...............the #20 car was a bomber.................a field filler. Not only did he do his best to wreck Krimezy when he was passed by him, but failed to finish that heat and was a DNS the B. Gherkin was on site twisting wrenches.
On another note I had the pleasure of meeting Matthew Reed. Good dude with a good group of guys/gals helping him out. When asked how he liked G-View he responded in true Aussie fashion, "It's a little big, ain't it?" I told him to wait for the weekend.

anything about racing. I don’t understand how they
come up with some of the calls they do. It makes me
think that they just might be that stupid. It’s
scary." -Steve Kinser

Sadly, MOST of your cars are bombers there these days and it's proven EVERY time you race against real competition, even at the only place you used to have a chance at, lol. Of course, when bombers race bombers on a weakly basis it provides great action, hence everyone's still happy, right? Take It Easy....
PS Some great runs for Shep, is he making any new fans, in other words have you guys flip-flopped yet?
