Re: Bob Glidden Comment

dave I really do not think you are aware of so much? I worked up there for two months solid, I did not recieve one paycheck, and I paid my own motel and all my own food except one. I personally know where every engine is right now!!!! So tell me, how many dyno pulls have been made in the last week??? I did not take a shot at anyone, including Tony. They do what they are told to do, they are employees and there is nothing wrong with that, but for you to come here and mislead, and then try and make it out as if I do not know whats going on, I think you know mush less than I do! Now why not go and find posts where I have thanked everyone at dart, especially Tony, and where I have thanked him for a great partner in all the work this winter, as well as Jeff, George and the others, now print this one off (the whole post) and show it it to Tony also, the prostock teams running the best have many more people concentrating on only the prostock program, I could care less if this is beyond what you think or not, it is fact!! Thanks, BG

Re: Bob Glidden Comment

I think Justin and the gang will be just fine. Richard has several things lined up and they will be testing the first of the week. Just like me, they need a few things to go better, and this kid will be a serious contender. I hope he does well also, BG

Bill, you're dissapointed at your ability to qualify but in my eyes your one of the top 20 fastest NHRA PS Racers in a country of 6 million with I'm sure a budget missing alot of zero's compared to those qualifying above you!

Keep Fighting and keep shooting strait and it'll all work out in the end!
I am not sure about buying Gregs engine, lol, but I am sure of the fact I have done a poor job of getting the cars, right, hopefully I have turned the corner, we actually ran decent the last two runs at vegas, as for the power situation? I do not have the funds to get to and from the races, dang sure do not have anything for the right parts to run this deal, thanks, BG

Re: Bob Glidden Comment

In fact, dave aren't you at work when looking at all this? why aren't you doing your job instead of being on the internet? I know you are the son in law and all, but still work is work, heck I don't have a computor, tv, or radio at my shop, and I figure I work alot more often than you do, in our place, Shannon does the shipping, boxing and what not, and she is not on the computor either, BG

I am curious to know what they are asking for that car. Somebody needs to buy that car, restore it, and put it in a museum. Does Big have a RMS car at his place?

Re: Bob Glidden Comment

i am not trying to make you look bad for god sake. i think your a great guy and was very happy Dart had a chance to all work together as a team with you. everyone at the shop is into this as a team, everyone. that is something richard has instilled in all of us. i did show tony what was writen becasue i did not think what was writen was right after everything you guys had been through as friends?? as for looking at posts at work i am sure you have eaten lunch at a desk with a computer on it before?? but we dont need to get into all that. as far as i know the statemnt i made was true. there are people working on the motors at the shop and the engines are not the same as they were when tommy was running them. like i said i am glad we are all working together as a team and i hope it continues with great results.

Go get em Bill....The truth always separates the players from the wanna-be's. I appericate you being here and your comments. Sure wish you and your Dad would get a fair shake at this current day Pro Stock Class - It would be fun to watch.

Allow me to shed more light on this. The producers asked Paul Page to go out into the pits and get some answers. I guess Paul spent like half a day pounding the pavement working on this scoop. And boy did he ever. Infact, here's a candid photo of Paul talking with one "high profile" driver near his pit area. So based on this photo alone... I'd say Paul is definately in the know when it comes to NHRA Pro Stock!

Re: Bob Glidden Comment

Word that I got is that some discussion has been happening between Dick Maskin and a certain former Mountain Motor guy. I don't know what the outcome was, but it would be interesting....

I have met most of the team over at Justin Humphrey's pit and they are all great people. I wish them nothing but the best for the rest of this year.

Well, I got the WRONG "former Mountain Motor guy". I was told that it was supposed to be one guy, and then Justin shows up in Atlanta with Frank Gugliotta....
