Your saying rob is having a more successful season then Gregg Satterlee?

At this point Satterlee is far beyond a "local" racer. I would damn near call him a national guy that just isn't locked down to a national series.

From a financial stand point ??? I'd say Blair has made money and I'd guess saterlee is Atleast 200k in the hole ...

i bet he would come and win there too.....the north still hs the best drivers........tho fewer cars, and he has been spanking them too....



There is good talent everywhere. Beating Miley or Ferree at the Lernerville and PPMS is just as tough as beating Blair at the northern tracks, despite your usual ignorant opinion.

I wasn't calling your post ignorant in the typical Pittsburgh sense, I was using the term ignorant in the literal sense. You are ignorant of the talent levels anywhere other than your bubble. You do the same in most of your posts.

I use be fan of Mr. Blairs. that was many moons ago. when he went where competition was. he so called traveled. now for what ever reason he does no traveling. and mops up on guys at local tracks. he makes money doing that. good for him. just wonder what happen if Danny Holtgraver. Greg satterlee. Ed Lynch would do if they had same wave length. they go where competition is try and better them selves. running big shows going against the best dirt has to offer. I'm not ripping Blair. He does what he has to. But for people to say he is the best around and unstoppable. is ass a nine. Was hoping see him at ULMS race at PMS. recently. he was in pits and not driving. you make haul there and don't drive?? enough said. cya at raceway 7. stellar line up ....... tried leaning on shane clanton at McKean. what happened.?? guys at raceway 7 and eriez must be intimidated. Lets do this post again come Pittsburgher and Steel city Stampede. He has them on schedule. yet that means nothing when he had both tracks on schedule earlier in year.

He's making money, good for him. But I agree with those that say he's big fish in a little pond, beating up on lesser competition..He's had the chance to travel to some regional shows even a simple ULMS and decided not to. Instead he goes to raceway 7 to set some record for the most wins or whatever against a whopping 10 cars. awesome. what a warrior. I was a fan back in the day but not anymore.

Blair has been a winner far and wide for many, many years. His record speaks for itself. Just because he chooses not to travel much anymore, he is still a very good racer.

The guy is racing to make money ... He needs to do what ever gives him the best chance of making money .... The same reason I don't build houses ... There's no money to be made

And the same reason you don't race ! .. What a Season !! Congrats !!

If at first you don't succeed, then maybe you just suck.

"guys at raceway 7 and eriez must be intimidated".......????? Badass you really believe this? The guys that he runs against weekly at Eriez, to name a few: Mike Knight, Dave Hess, Boom Briggs, Chris Hackett, Ron Davies (once-in-awhile), Scott Gurdak....Etc., etc. Any of these guys, from the North, could travel South and put up a good showing against the guys at L'ville, PPMS, etc. In fact, didn't Hess win quite a bit at L'ville in the past? I don't think these guys are intimidated at all with Rob. Rob is a top notch racer that is having a stellar year.

Mckean,Mercer,raceway7,Lernerville,roaring knob,Sharon and I'm sure I'm missing a few more tracks where he's been in victory lane ....what's your "Ppms locals"credentials besides Ppms or your "Lernerville " local .....Johnson is about it and if he thinks he don't have a shot of winning he takes his bat n ball and goes home atleast Blair finishes a race unless car breaks or something along those lines

To say Robbie is beating up on bums, is silly. Robbie owns a few tracks, he beat great competition every week at Tri City too. Sure he doesn't step out like Satterlee or Lux used to, but Robbie and Max both are racing full time making money, MAKING MONEY, locally. If you think its fun to lose you ass, well... and for the record, Satterlee is on fire as of late. However, how many "local" racers go out and buy multiple Rousch Yates motors in one year? Its apples and oranges. But on most nights, Robbie can still run with anyone.

99% of local racers entire annual racing budget wouldn't cover half of what it costs to have Robbie Allen be your personal bitch. Never mind the equiptment or traveling expenses I'm talking just paying HIM !!! He would have to put up a season like darrell lannigan did last year just to break even ... That's reality it's not shit talking

I am not about to take sides here, but pray tell me what is the difference in Blair running Eriez and McKane County every week than the likes of Ferree, Miley, Norris and Geisler/Pegher running Lernrville-Pittsburgh every week??? Most guys run fairly close to home on a regular basis, and few have the $$$ backing to do what Satterlee is currently doing!! And as far as Blair not coming down "south", how many times do the four mentioned above head to the Northern Tier to run a ULMS or other extra payoff race there?? Simply, Blair is having a great year and the guys he is beating, Knight, Briggs, Hess, etc. are sure no pushovers!! End of debate!!! GOOD RACING!!!1 Walt
