I would love to do it again!!!! Man if my kids were gone....I am originally from Central Illinois and still have family there!!!

I do remember ours cars being "flexed out" at about 40 nights in the late 90's

I think it was 98 Summer nationals I was with Kris Patterson we got tore up at I-55 we left and went to Rayburns to have the car put on the jig to make sure the front was not bent and had a new front...

Are you guys saying that an older chassis with todays new shocks and springs would flex out those cars in 2 nights of racing?

4-5 1982 Fairbury every Sat. night for 13 yrs to watch my uncle

Some old hot shoes in this one that I loved to watch when i was a kid!!

I remember a lot of cars with those spoilers, side plastic little windows and air filter covers! RIP to your Uncle

I truly hope this will bring a good show every week. Living 20 miles away from here it would be great to see some good UMP stuff close to home!

There was another reason for that. BTW not trying to start another fight here but I believe Bob still helps others that helped him back in the day. I know one driver that received a free car from him...

Yep Gary is my Uncle. I remember all of them

Yes it is his dad

That is funny!!!


Seriously I hope they can get the motor program fixed. He had ALOT of engine trouble this year that gets a driver frustrated more than anything!

WOW 2000 laps! Is that common place now? Malcuit told us 1000 on our 415 Ford and 1200 we were on "borrowed time" this was in 1998 though

Pretty good info here. We would change stuff after that depending on what shock package or bar angles we changed, with that being said the things we changed always went back to baseline before we...

Yes very nice guy BUT back in 98 his tires were "softened" that is FACT. Most of the top guys were doing it back then when running outlaw tires.

I would also change the panhard bar to a LR mount to the right side of the pinion as well. works WAY better.

I don't think he was in the 100's by 25. Back then he raced 4 nights a week though!

Yes he did. Patterson ran them as well. When I was a kid if you had a 430 Gaerte you were a hotdog!

Yep we were doing it in the 90's MSD retard on the big big motor (440-446) spacer plates on the smaller ones.

We had a adjustable spacer plate once it was like a carbon fiber material. Never...

RIP paperman

Yup same prob here

I remember it pretty much the same way.

IIRC yes it was. It might have been a Mastersbilt.

Why is it a (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)hole in YOUR opinion?

Known Rick for awhile condolences to his family😔
