Default Two War Bonnets.........

Two members with the same user name.....

One- War Bonnet, since 2005
Second- Warbonnet, since 2010

Sorry Mr. WB 2010 but I felt it necessary to open this thread due to the fact it went ignored previously in my message to the mods.

Ah geez, splitin' hairs. War Bonnet is not Warbonnet, easy to see. There are a number of members with simular names. How many variations of Grumpy do we have?

I believe Warbonnet is here in Montana.

I don't think this summer I will be singing, "Oh lord, stuck in Novi again". I have 3 reasons to go to Detroit this summer, and if any 2 of the 3 overlapped I might actually go, but don't think I will go for any just 1, and they are 1. NCRS convention July.. what? and 2. My 40th HS reunion which noone has even scheduled yet so might not happen at all, and 3. Woodward Dream Cruise, August 17. oh well....

War Bonnet Raceway Park

War Bonnet Raceway Park was a 2.4-mile road course located in Mannford, OK, about 25 miles west of Tulsa. The track is no longer in use, the roadway now acting as the access roads to housing subdivisions.

I did not stutter. I said I believe Warbonnet (one word, the forum member) is here in Montana.

Paul, although he wasn't asking ME, thought I would tell him anyway!

So did you take your username for the race course, or do you have one of them yellowish vettes? (Never mind, I see the 72 LT-1 pics in your profile)

Oh, in that case I hope to see you there

Nice picture of a War Bonnet! I used to use one as my avatar

There are two diaper skid colored cars (71 LS5 & 72LT-1) in the garage!

NOTE: When logging in I'm able to use either spelling.........I would say they are one in the same!

Maybe its like Sting Ray and Stingray?

I can see where their could be confusion in using a name with the same similarities. There may be people who give credit to the wrong person not thinking about the differences.
