A buddy of the holebeater?sure sounds so to me...You sound just like him..What makes PMS that "special"track.. Its allabout location,why would sumbody wanna tow to the beloved PMS if we have a closer track?i dont post here often but i have to give it to you LEGEND you know how to bring out the best in everybody. I really enjoy your sarcasm and posts. Some people sit and watch while some get out and do. Our team has raced at PPMS with zero success in the last few years, two blown motors and a junked race car in the last 3 times we have been there. Does that mean we suck, no because we have plenty of success where ever we go. One track does not define your success, nor should one track limit your ability. I applaud anyone who is able to go out and race against the best in the country, some people see it as failure and some people will see it as a success. Our team would rather run against the best competition week in and week out and try and improve ourselves than to dominate a weekly track with lesser competition. So to all those arm chair racers out there suit up, belt in or at least climb off your couch and work on a car!

This is the point I was trying to make , I just have a more politically incorrect ,potentially offensive way of saying it ..never met the guy but you cant trash him because he is doing what is best for his career. If he wants to run at eldora run with the woo or lucas and struggle then thats on him. if you wanna run hummingbird and are happy then so be it. As i stated we enjoy racing against the best in pa ohio and ny. running weekly against the likes of saterlee, davies bros., miley, boom, barton, blair, knight, hess etc... some nights we beat them and some nights we get beat but over all "I" feel to get better you must race against the best in the business night in and night out. Also you should not be disparaged for wanting to run your local track. So again let the arm chair and couch racers run their keyboards and let the rest of us that actually race put the show on for you!

I have finished in the top 5 at pittsburgh , and none of your hummingbird limited lates can claim that. I have talked to several people who race at hummingbird bird and everyone except for you agrees with my assessment of the facility. They all say its a demo derby for 600 to win ... Im not talking down your precious hummingbird speedway but I wont allow your winning there to give you a more relevent opinion than mine on any subject.King, I totally agree with you on traveling to gain experience racing with the top caliber racers; actually you need not go much further than the Norhtern Tier to get a humbling but rewarding assessment of where you are in respect to some of the best. The only problem I have is degrading an entire race track you have never visited or raced at is pretty ignorant. The cars at the back woods hummingbird have some pretty good credentials. Like him or not Luke Hoffner will be regarded as one of the best out of the state of PA; he has won 150 plus or minus A Mains; yes the most recent 40 or so are at smaller bullrings, but the cost of the sport forced him to re-evvaluate his racing program. Luke competes wherever he unloads; he just is not funded like the top teams; and in general, that is the same for most of our local drivers in Central PA. I never trashed him for traveling; he asked what Hummingbird car would be a top 5 where he raced; the point we were trying to make was; how many top 5's or how competitive he was in those races he expected the bird cars to be top 5.

This new mega event Pittsburgh is having in October after hummingbird closes seems like a great opportunity for these hummingbird cars to come show me how fast they are ... Open tires rules ... Just sayin ...some of the hummingbird cars are pretty good, but they race with a lot of junk and its a very small track compared to pittsburgh .. thats why its a demo.. but you gotta be good to win there,,, little luck will help also.

I will be at all ppms special events , not many weekly showsthat's fine. The firecracker requires the UMP tires, for a team racing AR' to go there it will cost a lot of money for the tires. Are you racing PPMS?
