You know i thought females were bad about all the whining and name calling but if you read what is on here i think i will change my mind on that.

hi tamra. yes my wife says reading these boards is a little fritting sometimes for a lady but adds their just guys that love drag racing and don't like their class or style of racing smack down. i suspect its the same in all walks of life.
see you at the valley marg & ken.

well it just gets old after a while. I have not had a chance to drive our car this season because of my work and i love drag racing as much as the guys. but in the end all the gripping and mess just gets old. if you are out there to race and have fun then just do it without all the drama. i will get back in the car and run it and will be very competitive. ours may not be the fastest but we just go out there and have fun.

I know you can't please all the people all the time, but there's too much whining going on. I'm not going to start a petition every time the Valley does something that I don't like. I figure if you don't like it, there's other race tracks within a reasonable drive. Let me put my fire suit on before the flaming begins!!! ;D

yes demon- i wear a bowtie also most of the whinnig is about payouts & weights- i think the valley pays better than most tracks in suppro 50$ entry 1500$ most 45$ for1200$- the tracks have to make money- car counts are way down at most tracks. i to would like more money but to do that means traveling and i'm not into that- a person travels to big money events you got a bunch of heavy hitters- we enjoy ourselves racing the locals in the tri state area. people have ask me don't you get tired of racing the same people all the time- i say no every race is diff
so demon your tired of this bull--- see you at the tree--ken. june 3

As for the payouts, I'd rather see more spots paid out than a bigger prize to win. The Valley only pays 8 cars - Beech Bend pays 16 cars, and some other places pay round money. Oh, well. I know I'm not going to get rich doing this. I just want to have some fun with it. Isn't that the point? If the whiners want to go somewhere else, that means there's fewer cars you and I have to beat, right? I may see you at the tree June 3rd, but it'll probably be through the camera lens. I'm trying to save some money for my vacation, and I may not be able to swing the 100 bucks to run. What do you run, anyway? Later, Damon

I was there the 29th, but I don't remember what cars i saw...that was three weeks ago! I have the orange Vega pictured in my drawing on the left (here's a good pic of it: www.thephotodemon.com/smDSC_0037.jpg) Best of 5.84@116, injected small block - all throttle, no bottle ;D As for the 5Gs, I could use that pretty well myself (like pay off my car!) but realistically, I don't see myself winning a bunch of rounds in the future - I've won ONE round this year out of four. Like I said before, I'm not in it to get rich. I just want to have some fun.

neat looking peice with them big big tires-- thats a damm quick time good ride huh-- there was a time way back when the vega's in use was slowing down now i notice their coming back. i'll bet your 60's are around 1.25-26. btw demon i could sure see you coming even in the dark huh. bracket racing is getting tougher every week once a person learns to block out everything they will win.
i'm gone for now ken.

Dude, since when can the weathermen predict anything in KY. Hell they can't predict yesterday's weather, let alone 11 or 12 days in advance.
