yeah, i'm screwed up! you'd rather watch the slowest 360's in the country along with go carts instead of 800hp late models. gonna jam out to Phil Collins on the way over?



Will strange you have a choice to not go. I would go if the late models were there. Prefer to watch them on a bigger track like Charlotte for the World finals. With the sprintcars of course. Mini sprints put on a good show also. Nothing wrong with 360 sprint cars. Sorry but I do not listen to your kind of music. So have a nice day you Elton John fan.

Anyone catch the cat that snagged a top 5 at Plymouth? None other than BK5! When he is on, the guy can drive. Would have loved to see what would have happened in a 40 lapper. Wouldn't have caught the 17B, but the top 3, maybe!

The 17B, well, when your the class of the field and your handed a top 5 position for the feature, you better win. Balog's last time he was out of the top 5 was at the may Knoxville race. He is really like all the IRA guys, when you go against bigger, better teams, you have a hard time. Not givin anyone a bad rub, just stating stats.

And for those who say, "you go and do it smart ass", I would. I would make it half way around Knoxville at half throttle and have to pull in to clean my shorts. Would be fun though!

Now for another question---the BK 5 spoutin off about winning 5 or 6 races last year how many were IRA? I really don't keep track and just want to know.

Maybe in 40 laps- well he had 27 to do it, and could not get er done!!!! The top 3 really seemed to stretch it out after every restart! By the way the Bk 5 is ok.

Maybe we can rename the IRA the class of the Balog series! I am sure none of the other drivers add anything to the series.

I don't have an answer but cones and small tires don't mix, this stopped the racing action half dozen times throught the night, especially in the A as the field was coming to lap traffic! In my opinion it just goes to show how the IRA comes up with some really stupid stuff!

does anyone know who hit the tire during the A at Plymouth? the tire and cone was on the track,they had to throw a yellow and they didnt move anyone back. I know Todd hit it twice and was put in the back both times. Im talking about the other time.

Rieso i think you hit the nail on the head. Since he(biertzer) complains more than anyone there. when he gives you a right rear to move you then hits you and bends that right rear its your fault right? Its going to be a good weekend no matter what.



idk if you were there friday but how about biertzer taken out three r four good cars befor for the first lap was in haha starting to become a habit for him...

if you see the video 4b got spun by the 2w.i dont know if 4b didnt get going fast enuf for the 2w but 4b was on the tail of the car in front of him and could go! I dont know what happened between the 4b and the 2w this year all but the 4b and 2w used to be best friends before this racing season!

wit 3 races left on the schedule for the phive car and thatt guy having 9 wins already... I think he can get at least won more win. I think he could win 2 of the last 3 ira races and the last 2 360 races depending on what he desides to race! remember he ran away with the Dodge 360 race at the begining of the year before he had rear problems rite at the end of the race.

just asking if your running for fun and not for points. What is better a short number of wins in a row or a few more number of top 5's in a row?

I was there friday and was nothing but 4B fault. Everyone stood on the gas but when he stood on it it became a squirll and he never lifted. 2W had know where to go. It was just a racing thing. Prob. Be better if 4B would have not tried to save it after he was backwards already. lol. But im sure its everyone elses fault that he got squirlly on the start not his own. Thats like he blamed 2W the last time they were at oshkosh at 4B spun out all by himself just in front of 2W and 2W tried to miss but didnt he blamed 2W for that incident also. O well

Im not trying to make excuses for 2w or 4b! I didnt talk to either driver or crew! I dont know how many years of driving a sprint car you have either 410slider. But it takes alot of talent to spin a car out coming out of a corner by your self. Not many drivers can do it the way it happened to with the 4b. anyone can spin a car coming into a corner tho!

ive seen the 4b spin in the middle of corners coming out going in being a little to outa control he is fast some nights but he makes no friends on his way to the front thats for sure and he is never to blame for any incident its always the other guy.

I in no way am trying to stand up for the 4b or crew, but does anyone make friends while there coming up through the field?lol. I would be happy to be getting passed!lol! some one told me and I dont know for sure but he told me that the first half the season the 4b didnt pass one car in the Amains,the only way he moved up was when a car in front of him crashed or dropped out! dont know if its true tho!
