That's rich coming from the same guy who rearends me then uses his favorite
"F&%K" words on me multiple times after he takes us both out of the race (at
Kansas). I think you are the guy ZZ is talking about.

Speaking of RASCAR, if it does in fact become a points league with
rules and such, where can I sign up for the next season?

stuff. Just think, you will make someone happy because they finished better
than you . That might be the special christmas present they have been
waiting for.Whatya say?
My guess is that you are indeed better at it than you are lettin on. :)

I got it ZZ from my earlier post and thought that I had de-fussed it. Like I
said before, it was a good bait mind you. Marty is a difficult track to
race, because track position is so important and the slow guys can maintain
that track position if they want to. You have to be a lot faster to get
around the slow guys, and you end up using all your stuff doing it. Junior
and Newman was a classic example. Junior's car was soo much faster than
Newmans, but the line around that track is just so big and it took a long
time to get around. Newman didn't have a problem with the deal because he
was racing. I usually let the faster guy go when I am tired of him bugging
me staying on my bumper, but at marty's, I haven't raced there enough to
develop a 'policy' because of the track position thing.
I do know that it is very frustrating to have to drive around behind a
slower car lap after lap knowing that you are faster, but can't get the line
to pull off the pass. Been there done that.

See yall at Atlanta, my home track. (no pun intended)

If thats you brunt? then you were BLOCKING me and everyone else at Kansas.
I had just watched you do it to Wilshe then I come up on you WAY faster
cause I had new *** and you came right down onto me.  I never once moved
up from the low lane and was already slowing as much as I could as we both
had our own lane and I was moving forward.  You tried to BLOCK me by making
a radical lane change and RUINED both our day for no reason at all.  Exactly
what we've been preaching against.  I made my intentions clear all the way
down the BS.  If you can read my mind or #### on a chat message then youre
pretty good.  Guessing makes you look foolish.

Yeah Jason post a thread on the RSC forum
http://forum.racesimcentral.com/forumdisplay.php?s=&forumid=142.  Were you
on the invite list at anytime since last year Jason?  If not then we need
your Sierra ID.  We're currently looking for a carset manager so till then
just attach your car to your post.   Next season will be winter league but
no decisions have been made on type/length/dmg/etc.  Trucks or TA both jump
out at me but we'll see.  Next regular season starts in March so we have
plenty of time to get your name.

Jr. showed INCREDIBLE restraint today.  I don't know that even I could be
that patient :)

You could tell during his post-race interview he had something to say, but
kept his lip buttoned.

I would love to race that format.

I'd definitely be interested in a road course league with PTA or short
tracks with CTS/BGN, but I just left my job and thus finally have free
time to participate in rascar again.  I'll post something on RSC when
I get a chance.

   Once the Bullrun 1000 is over, and they produce the promised Viper, I'm
sure the TPTCC from the uspits will be sponsoring a TA leage.

>Youre obviously still on some meds Simmons.

Whatever, Mitch. I was simply correcting ZZ's statement, and I
certainly was doing it expecting or hoping for your's or anyone
else's validation.
