I might be generalizing to much but life doesn't start and stop with the heads up deal. Now don't get me wrong I love the heads up thing wish there was a class I could run.......maybe in a different life. us Pontiac racers are a small group and anytime we can whoop up on another brand we should be given credit! No matter what type of racing we do! If I'm wrong I apologize, it wouldn't be the first time.

Didn't see those threads I guess. I remember when Probird was winning almost every week (seemed like that anyway) that people were congratulating him. Anyone who wins should get a congrats imo.

Norwalk goes the same every year. A lot of talk and nothing more for the most part.

You guys are PU$$Y MFers. Keep clinging to you "advantage based racing"

A real race as long as you goof balls have the upper hand NO MATTER WHAT!

What will you do after we point out the HP? what if jacks heavier and wins?

If i wanted to make a point i'd want to beat him in a way to shut everyone up.....not you guys.

I find it beneficial to have the lightest possible car with the biggest tire possible and call out the heaviest car with the smallest tire I can find. Then when I win I rub it in their face because I just proved how badazz I am.

The problem with your sarcasm is that is really how they see it! They really think thats a win.

At this point Mike I could care less about who calls who out,what size tire they run or what there car weighs! I think there needs to be more CV-1 cars out actually on the track......going down the track......instead of hearing lip service.
