    Very entertaining and he talked quite a bit about the cost of SLM racing.
    I just saw an interview with a local racer here. He said it costs them around $100k this year to just run local SLM races. I'm sure it cost Kenny some big $$$$$$$ to go Modified racing too. I've heard some say that Modifieds are heading the same way as the SLM cost wise.

    I don't know why people here want to bash Kenny; he's just someone who loves going dirt track racing. He's one of the nicest guys to talk too if you get the chance.

      He talked about it at length in the video. He won at Cleveland Speedway in Tennessee quite a few years ago.

          Why would anyone run a $600 modified show if they aren't running for points?

          Same reason a guy spends 50k on a boat to catch a fish he could buy at a restaurant for $20. To get away from the wife for a few hrs. Priceless!!

              What I meant is why go to a $600 modified race when there are so many $1,000+ modified races every week in the midwest. I wouldn’t expect Kenny to go to a weekly race.

                My point is practice what you preach.Kenny is racing for the “love” of dirt,,,why not show up and support his local track???? Ohhhhh yea it all comes down to $$$$$ The very reason that racing is dying. Nobody but a few car owners are in it for the love of racing. Go back to my first response on this thread

                  He’s full of assumptions, just ask him.

                  Have bought parts, how I know I’m not going to drive, not worth it.
                  Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                        Racing is and always has been expensive. Unfortunately for some, talent can't be bought.

                          Wallace

                          I heard from a reliable source the last year Jimmy Owen's won UMP in a mod he went through 7 engines and I know he wasnt running cheap crap and I'm thinking there was a motor claim then so 6 or 7 motors at least 2 chassis and you have more in a mod the late model an I correct ?

                            I can’t stand Kenny Wallace. He is a loud mouth and is one of the worst announcers there is. Besides Michael Waltrip. I wish he would just retire from everything and go away. And who cares what he thinks.

                                Who said we were offended by his language? I'm just saying that's all I heard come out of his mouth.
