As I called at the start of the season, watch this talented young driver.
He is obviously tightening his skills... With a feature win this weekend at both Thunder Mountain, and again tonite at Hummingbird, keep your eyes on that Redd Hott, Red #94 car! Nice driving Charles jr! I love to watch drivers battle it out! See you next week!

Yeah people do care! Everybody that is near his rolling demo derby care about how much they are going to spend on repairs. He is not in go karts anymore z-bar.

He still likes to bounce off everyone to get up front

He's started up front these two races. Congrats to him. But he still is terrible in a crowd. By himself from the pole he is fast. But tears a car up if he has to pass from beyond 5th. Well see when he starts 13th at the bird haha

He isn't a rookie, he had a half dozen races a few years ago. So, technically no he isn't. He started near the front both races, actually all 3 features this year that he has won. In that argument, so did several other cars. But only one took the checkered. So... 3 features, 3 different tracks, against much more seasoned drivers. Must be beginners luck? I say his star is rising... Keep an eye on him!

Is your life so miserable that you have to make light of others' accomplishments?

He raced the whole season at hummingbird in 2012 till he went to a secure home.

I have no probelm with Charles Powell, I have a probelm with you and your post. Your first post acted liked Powell was super fast, but you did not say anything about being his friend.

Friend? I've never spoke to the young man. I watch many races on any venue I can. All classes, but especially fond of the Late models.
And I love a driver in any class. Not all who pilot a race car are drivers. This young man is, and it's obvious. I'm confident he'll prove me right. I've seen many "bull ring masters" in my day. Smashing up others cars just to put them out, or prevent someone from passing them. A digrace to racing in this class! Let's watch the season unfold... We'll revisit this "greenhorn" later.

This driver has been one of your so called "bull ring masters" and has made more than a few "friends" in his short steel block career so far.

It sure seems odd to me that all of the sudden you are on here talking one driver up, and there are other latemodel drivers that win on a weekly basis, but have never seen you post anything else, get real.

I agree 100%. Congrats on the win Saturday Tommy. That was a nice run.
