    Grandson-in-law took his Grandmother to a 49ers' regular season game this year since she'd never been. Cost him $600 for 2 decent tickets and $550 for parking at an off stadium site. Don't remember...

    Looked forward to watching this one and rookie Bakersfield LM driver Ethan Dotson. A long time top Mod driver in the west and a Boone Nationals winner in that class gave no reason to doubt that he...

    Thought Tony did a good job considering the Lucas cars aren't on the top of his viewing choices and he's a pleasant guy on the ears.

    Both the High Limit Sprints and The Lucas LMs put on entertaining races but I haven't heard anyone applaud the Crate LM race. I gave up on their main (missed the heats) after Marc Whitener's 3...

    Use an old-fashioned pull handle like on the old Midgets for the RF brake only? The tech guy probably won't like that either if/once he figures it out.

    Don't know what part of the country you're in but fuel prices on the left coast are nuts. A few years ago I had a deal with a distributor in Nevada for Sunoco 110 @ $7.40/gallon. Lost that when...
