Folks Of Interest O/T - After 29 Years, First Main Event Win!! Ever!!

Mods, delete it if it is too off topic, but last night after 29 years of dirt circle track racing I finally won a main event. If is kind of on topic as I did it in a '37 Ford replica Legends Car. I have raced street stocks, super stocks, IMCA modifieds and sprint cars over the years. I have taken the white flag app. 10 times leading the race, but fate would always intervene in the form of a blown motor, flat tire, electrical gremlin or something else. Last night I guess all the stars were aligned right, plus it was a full moon. The Legends car is the hardest type of car to drive that I have ever raced.

 

OK,

I be first !

Congratulations...........29 yrs ! Whew!

 

congrats!!!

 

Good for you! Now show us the car, maybe the winnwers circle picture with the trophy girl...

 

Pedal to the medal. Congrats.

 

I second that emotion!

 

Give him a few points for persistence...

 

That is awesome!!!

 

Congrads!

 

lets see the car

 

Congrats!
Brings back memories.
I remember the first time I made the A main.
First time starting on the pole.
Then the first time leading a lap.
Nobody here has a bigger smile on his face for you here than ME.


BUT......

(might wanna edit that "Legends car harder to drive than a sprint car" comment) lol

Again, congrats on the win!

 

Uh-oh, now that you won the first one you'll never quit! Jk-- congrats!

 

I stand by that statement that it is harder to drive than a sprint car, the Legends car is so twitchy that you are on the verge of spinning out all the time. The sprint car is a far more forgiving race car.

See...I knew there were trophy girls!
Good job!

 

nice job ! i'll have to tell van to check this out ,those trophy girls look like they were happy to see ya!!

 

You know what they say... To make a small fortune, take a large fortune and go racing. Hopefully it won't be another 29 years before you see the trophy girls again. CONGRATS!

Congratulations. Now that you're over that hurdle, hope you get many more!
