If I cry enough can I drive one too? I am a fat ass, so minimum weights are no problem. I look forward to your people contacting my people.
Better yet, can I drive the stupid music car? I can spin them out with the best of them. Holding my breath..... |

Isaac Chapple; you saved me the time from typing the same post! lol. I'd like to stand in line for any open Ft Wayne rides (I intend to be ready to race by then for sure)!
IMHO, any car owner of any of these cars can post, do, or say anything they want, anywhere, or any site they want! This sport wouldn't be what it is, or like SCCA racing or something, without people willing to risk their investments on all sorts of racetracks. If it weren't for people like Don (and any car owner that still puts drivers in their cars for talent) those that "rose" thru the ranks would most likely not even be in their current positions. The last thing I would want to continue to see happen is anything that causes car owners like Don (and/or esp. ANY with midget cars that were built to/still do race more than one time a year) to get to a point where they were upset with the current state and no longer campaign their equipment...

I kind of liked the sqaure tail tank. Thought it ought to have more slope in it though. Through the aid of the computer here is a vision of the direction tail tanks could take at the Rumble. Fans would love it!!!!! Shoot, if there were just a few more of them they could uncork the engine limits and start a new class and call them super modified midget munchkins.
And on a more serious side. Here's the Munchkin during 1988 at South Bend.

As to the rest of the thread, great to see the leader of the site tell someone to STFU instead of doing constructive discussion. How many others here would get away with that? Does Don have a legit argument? By the rules stated (as they were written), absolutely. Did someone posting as Tony Stewart do the right thing and apologize and take responsibility? yes. Is this thread and discussion overwith? Yes. It's Chili Bowl time, lets move onto that and stop this back and forth sh*t slinging fiasco. If this post offended anyone, well grow some thicker skin and/or consult a therapist. |

From what I'm gettin is, It was a broken rule but was over ridden by Mr. Barhorst for who ?? Team 3521 said the Rumbles for fun, Wonder how many guys that was victim of the bump & run thought it was fun, Especially if they were running up front.

Well, 197 posts on this thread with over 20 pages of responses to a thread started by Don Moore. I agree that this topic has run it's course and suggest that everyone move on to keep from losing their mind.
With everything that has been said, I can honestly say that absolutely nothing been resolved. This thread certainly could help Tony Barhorst from a promotional stand point next year. However, most folks that didn't attend this year will have forgotten about this thread by then. Second, Tony Stewart did come on here and say that he made some mistakes. Takes a pretty good man to admit that he has made a mistake or two in his lifetime. He also made a generous offer in my opinion to Mr. Moore that most car owners wouldn't have made. Don Moore has been a voice of midget racing for quite some time. His delivery certainly tends to wear on people but his message seems to be consistent. Everyone has to be their own judge whether or not to keep reading his posts or hit the ignore button. The choice is yours. I guess all I am waiting for is to see if Don takes Tony S up on his offer. Don, will you accept Tony's offer or have you "quietly" declined. Happy midget racing everyone.

Aside requiring a lawyer and an engineer (giving two people a job) to read and interpret this rule what good is it??? My lawyer would say all the VW cars are all illegal and since the breather was affixed to the oil tank in a semi permanent fashion it should be considered as part of the oil tank!!!
