I am going to say you'd be lucky if you qualify in either class the few races.

good thing they let you in the brackets for free so you can practice

Who is this guy??.

I've seen him post occasionally, and it's always smack talk about kicking butt...

Sounds like Wells, but at least Wells raced... I don't think I've every seen this guy race.

Come join the fun in 11.50, Paul. We can use your entry fee. I hope your good at a sportsman tree, cause you'll get bump out of our 8 car field...

We 11.50 racers don't usually talk a lot of smack. We just race hard and put talkers on the trailer...

I beg your pardon!!! I have gotten a little bit better over the last few years too! A case of Heineken, for example, doesn't present much a challenge any longer.

Hell DID freeze over. Life's pretty ironic, no?

And funny that you mentioned Steve, it's him who actually lined Paul up on these passes and it's even his voice that you hear calling out the 1.25 sixty foot.
