I view most of that as constructive criticism

Is it a grear race? NO Is there potential for problems? YES I for one am glad that you guys pass on it. I have had a lot of sucess at that race and never had a problem. I think you guys should stay home and leave the easy money for me!!! I have been making up all the stories for years to keep the locals away. Ha.

"I have been making up all the stories for years to keep the locals away. Ha." I have lived one of the nightmares and am glad I did. No need for me to return to that race. Then again, I am no challenge.

Now we're cheaters and racest. Gets better every time you type something Yep Far as im concerned Cheating or Racism has nothing to do with it. I like my S@#T and want to keep it in my possession and in its current condition as long as I can. If I want it gone I at least expect to be compensated in return. The UBDRA race isn't the only race where there are issues, I have seen and heard of stuff being stolen at a lot of different tracks across the country, peoples motor homes being ransacked while they are in the staging lanes getting ready to run. Trucks and trailers stolen from the pits, truck stops and the like. I just don't feel the need to submit my belongings to the possibility of someone deciding that they want it more than I do or they can turn it for a quick buck or two. With the current social media explosion we have there are horror stories from all over the country about people having their rigs as well as complete operations stolen.

Ok. Another Black Sunday in the books. You guys that choose to stay away should really rethink it. We pitted in our normal spot in the center with almost all Black people. We treated it like any other weekend. Tools, parts, bikes, compressors, all laying out on the ground in plain view. We did not even put away at night and did not lock trailer and even left the side door open. Not only was nothing stolen but at no point was I concerned. The only nuisance was there were a lot of people in the way when driving back to the pits. I feel spectators are a good thing, even if they are unsure of proper etiquette. The one thing I noticed more than anything was everyone was there to have a good time. I heard more laughing and cutting up this weekend than I have heard at a drag race in a long time. Bottom line everyone I interacted with(mostly Black) were extremely friendly and definitely had a great time. It was nice to race against some different people. The only local I raced all weekend was Dennis Pearson. Good race, good times and a lot of fun. Just one persons opinion that has attended for the last 5-8 years.
