California Dreaming
I hope everyone is doing well out there, and your favorite driver is running good! I'm sure they're hoping the same thing. Well, I've got blues jammer Coco Montoya rockin' in the background, oh yeah. Let's push off! I want to update you on the "Rollover" fund that I talked about a few "Interrogations" back. I want to thank you all for your ideas and comments, it's very much appreciated. Without you this can't be done. Let me begin by saying "we" as fans can change things. It's all in our approach. Change will never come by bashing a driver or their hard working team. Trash talking is just that. Instead of bashing, let's find a solution. We always say how racing is like a "family". Well, family helps take care of one another. Negativity~We see it all the time. Certain parts of the country like to puff out their chests. Well we have a lot of pride too of course, but I'd rather let our drivers do the talking with their right foot. We see the bashing that goes on within some states, fans bashing their own tracks. That looks terrible. California has been known not to be boastful, but well respected. Let's keep it that way. OK, enough of that. Back to the "Rollover" fund. We are not going to steal second, with our foot on first base. I wish there wasn't a need for it, but we all know how "our" deal is. I have a great hookup, and the guy that I'm talking about is extremely passionate about our sport. We are working out the details as we speak! Of course I will keep all of you great people updated! On another note, if you're looking to hang out with some friends before the races and have some fun I can't help but point you in a couple of directions. There are a couple of racing "supporters" already out there that you can get involved with. One of those fantastic groups is HoservilleCa. They have been graciously helping out race teams for years now, and have a blast doing it! They're a devoted group of guys and gals that have their hearts in the right place. The race fan based group is spearheaded by Rich Wiseman and Mike Avilla. I know both these dudes, and I can honestly say that they have an unquenchable thirst for "our" beloved sport. I encourage you to contact them, as they have a really cool partner they like to take to the track. His name is "Bullet The Racing Pig" Let's fill that sucker up, and make a change for the better. You can reach Rich at yzman2@comcast.net or Mike at NARC14Fan@aol.com Another fan based community can be found at www.TheSkipperPartys.com. Nice guy Rod runs that deal and he knows racing. He helps out a lot of the 360 drivers up North. Not only with his fine contributions to teams, but he is also hands on helping out various teams in the pits. He is a really neat guy who's heart is in the right place too. You can contact him at meanthunderbolt@aol.com and he will steer you in the right direction. He is also a huge asset to our racing community as are all of you. Jonathan Allard man this cat is locked and loaded. He is absolutely on fire! It's a beautiful thing when you see a team in the zone like they are. They are hittin' hard right now, good job guys. In ending, I would like to offer my services free of charge if you would like some p.r. work done for your team. It's my way of giving back to a sport that has been so good to me throughout my 36 years. If it weren't for you great people I wouldn't be able to do what I do. I'm no pro by any means, but the passion is there. If interested contact me at sprint_cars_forever2001@yahoo.com |
