      With JD starting tail at Dog Hollow I have to give him the nod. Never been to the place, starts tail in the B and gets up to 3rd, starts last in a 24 car field and just puts a a** wippin on then all. DH isn't the easiest place to get around and there was 5 or 6 guys in front of him that are probably saying today how the hell did he do that.

        Race wherever it makes sense economically, who cares what others think.

Totals up to $9,400 I think it was? Also the fact, that he was headed to Midway for stiffer competition before the cancellation. If I were already up the road, I would have went to the nearest decent paying show as he seemed to. All this while BMJ ,an established team, picks up a comp cams and ms state race for $4500. It dont matter to me if either guy wins every event they enter the rest of the year, or if they stay at the house! Just seems to me the wrong guy is getting slammed for winning.
          I know what your saying. Its funny how drivers go out of their way to drive that far for little money.

              When your spending more than your winning thats when problems start.

                  Thats fair. He should have raced at home withthat being the case. Just like JD shouldnt dive right off into the deep end without testing the water

                      If the World 100 paid $1.00 it would still be the World 100.... when I started in dirt sportsman cars in '69 the heat races paid as little as $3.60 and a 25 lap main paid $35.00. It wasn't about the $$$... it was about competition, pride and commitment. Still is....

                        Wasn't about the money either. More about the multiple track Championships we won. Money can be spent. The record books will never be changed

                            Yep, and supposedly his last race. Pretty good winning percentage with him

                              That's the story of the weekend and that's why there were only 42 cars entered for the USA nats this weekend.

                              Only 1 driver can win the 50k and the cost are out of control.
