[MUD MAESTRO]

Montana......very nicely done. I did get to see 5 SN races and the one young gun that impressed me was Jon Henry, He's fast. Sheppard with great equipment is moving quickly up the ladder. Brian Shirley proved that he is a top 50 late Model driver. Shannon Babb did well but not up to his standards.
The best race I saw was at Fairbury......Stay well my friend.

Thanks alot Maestro, been awhile, hasn't it ?....I made the three SN races in Ohio last week. and you're right, Brandon's going to be a good one, no question ! I saw Carrier, Babb, and Unzicker win. The driver that impressed me the most was Jason Montgomery who came from 17th to 4th at Brushcreek, that young driver is gonna' be real good...if he goes to the Hillbilly this year, I'll be keeping an eye on him, he's got a lot of talent in him. Was good to see Ryan win Sat night at Oakshade, I like seeing different winners, and with 14 in the Summernationals this year, that was good to see. Heckenast Jr was really good in his last three SN races with a 4-3-6 finishes. Must be he needed that little break to get his program re-energized. But I was happy to see Shirley take it all, that means the last three years its been Feger, Babb, and Shirley. Who will it be next year ? Brandon perhaps, but down the road I can see young Pierce winning one of these titles, for sure. He sure has his daddy's genes in him

Hey take care Maestro, we'll be chatting with ya'
