Thread: A Force ??

may i quote aerosmith? "its the same oll song and daaaaaaance my friend!!!"

Nothing to do with affirmative action. Just a form of repayment for some of the folks who gave me a shot driving when I was probably the least qualified to get in the car...

Many moons ago I put a 17 year old high school kid in my Super Gas car.... He put Sheldon Gecker on the trailer final round at Brainerd and got us a Super Gas win!!!!! The first and only National event win we have ever had!!!

I guess I'll just keep on cheering for and when I can supporting the young up and coming's in every sport. I get bored watching the same old bunch win everything, a bit of new blood occasionally keeps the old dawgs on their toes!!! Doesn't matter to me if we're talking a little Saturday night action on the dirt track or the Pro Classes in NHRA... I would again mention how much easier it is to train a brand new driver to your program then it is to try and break a lot of bad habits that a lot of more experienced drivers have. You just never know Mike, maybe the new kid you give a break to could eventually become the next Force, Bernstein, Garlits, or ??????. Now that I'm a full fledged geezer it's fun to have one of my "kids" stop by and tell me how things are going. Ok, it's probably never going to be good for anything other then warm fuzzies for me, but I guess I'll just have to keep cheering on all the newbies!!!!

Nope, you ain't old enough to quote Aerosmith!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We'd first have to make sure you have an oldies station playing on the shop radio and not a bunch of that head banger crap!!!!!!!!!!!

You can have the last wise word on that one Dave and rightfully so. The court of public opinion has the noose around my neck for repetitiveness so I'll let it be for now. Maybe I'll open the can back up if some NEW news breaks on the subject.

Back to the original topic about Ashley.

OK SO WHAT SAY YALL, grade wise on Ashley's performance so far.


I give her a C

Now remember, grade her factoring in the first year driver, resources, team, pressure, etc. Take all into consideration and grade HER performance.

I'm just amazed that this thread is still alive and kicking. Talk about making a mountain out of an ant hill. This poor horse has been beaten to death, raised from the dead and beaten again.

As far as Ashley's performance so far... I give her an A plus. But I don't matter, it's what her dad thinks and her sponsors think that really matter. Certainly not anybody here, including me.

i only listen to rock n roll from 57-to about the mid 70's when it kinda went pfffft. c'mon now dave you didnt think i just like the cars of that era thats the only music i listen to!!!

Dave, I was thinkin' back to the real ol' days when there was a guy down on the corner that made & sold steel tipped arrows. Had his own foundry.

Think I know him!!!!! As time progressed he got into the cannonball business. Shortly after that life really started getting screwed up!!!!! Bullets and bombs, all that other stuff!!!! We should have stuck to arrowheads!!!!

Did he change his name to cannonsmith, bulletsmith & bombsmith

You can quote Aerosmith, but nothing from Janis Joplin or Arlo Guthrie---you're still to young for that stuff. "Oh Lord, won't ya buy me, a Mercedes Benz....My friends all drive Porshce's.........

"after the turn of the century, in the clear blue skies over germany, came a roar and a thunder men had never heard,like the screaming sound of a big warbird. up in the sky a man in a plane. hows that dave can ya name the song?
