Easier question to answer might be "Who won't be cheating?"!

Cheese are you saying you will not Win or cheat?

My vote is that Jeff will cheat just enough to win. lol

I bet cheese would to.

I know I will.

Win not cheat that would not be fair to every one else who are playing 100% by the rules.

No, no cheating here. I will never knowingly cheat. Dad never had to, so I don't either.

Now a days at the state fair speed way, I personally think if your not cheating your not going to win the points. Week in and week out you see the same drivers always running straight to the front and some of them its not because of good driving. Now you have to respect some of the guys that have been doing it for years, like Danny Jennings. but some of the new comers who are just blazing past people seem a little suspicious to me.

Boy, I guess that might be true, but as long as there has been racing there has been disparity in dollars and skill. I know there has been cheating too, but I think it's a little pessimistic to say that just because the same drivers go to the front that they're cheating. Sometimes they are just better at the wheel and sometimes the equipment is just better.

It happens more often than not. Illegal fuel is a HUGE problem at SFS. You can tell when your running behind someone and you can't breathe

My biggest racing pet peeve goes something like this.

"I know for a fact so and so is cheating."

"Really, well why don't you protest them."

"I would but, I don't want to start a bunch of crap."

"So your telling me that you know for a fact that so and so is cheating and your not going to do nothing about it."

"I'm pretty sure their cheating but, the track won't check them because they play favorites."

 

 


Well, if it ain't ole Mike Honcho!

I would have to agree with what everyone has said. The thing is all of its right. There are favorites at SFS, and people do know bout cheating and dont want to start anything. more often than not they are probably cheating too. but its especially prevalent in the factory stock division. There is about 4-8 cars that run to the front every night. And you know they aren't playing by the rules. I personally think that takes the fun out of it. If I could take a not cheating car, and out run the cheaters that would make a points championship more special than anything, because that means your motor builder, pit crew, and of course the driver gave everything for the ultimate prize.

Good luck on protesting someone and finding fuel. What are they going to do? Maybe the ol weight test...oh wait, people know how to beat that. And good luck getting someone to send it to a real lab.

I agree with you completely cheese. But with that the way it is..........why doesn't Lanny just legalize it? If he ain't gonna do anything to enforce it not being used........he may just as well let everyone use it. I doubt he ever would enforce it............because if he put a 2 week suspension on anyone running illegal fuels he would be lucky to have 25 sprints TOTAL the following week.

sadly enough Broncho most of the factory stock drivers in this area agree with you wholeheartedly.......and the car count of that class reflects it.

Heh, I wish Bobby haha. OKCFan, you can't legalize fuel because of many reasons. Pretty much the answer is people get hurt running fuel. Some of the stuff that people run are known cancer causing agents. I don't want cancer because I am racing against someone that has to cheat to win. I don't want any of the fans to get cancer (especially since there are little kids out there). They used to run Nitro in WoO with open competition and I'm not sure why they outlawed it, probably due to fire.

I agree I'm sick of seeing the same handfull of cars run away with it every week , its gotten out of hand , so you can count me out this year . I may show up a few times but its a lot funner going out of town each week to a different track instead of racing the same 5 cars !

Plus it pays better at some of those other tracks$$$$$$$$$


winners dont cry when they lose , they go back to the 
drawing board and come back for round 2 !
