Here's the ad for his new outlaw car#1572519 on racingjunk.com $135,OOO.OO. Must be loaded with goodies @ that price or fast as hell.
[> [> Subject: No its being sold for what they paid for it at auction. They played outbid with someone trying to buy it then turned around after the auction and had the balls to try and sell it to them after they fk'd them at the bidding.

Hey been there, how long did you have to wait for ur shit to be done? Mike does great work and is priced right, but damn he has had a Camaro up there for well over a year for a new backhalf, cage and rearend, im sorry but well over a year to do that work is rediculous. And I know the guy who owns it and he was pissed last week about it from what I hear.

Most chassis guys get burned several times during their careers by customers who bring their car in for extensive work, leave a deposit, then run out of money half way through it all. Really what needs to happen is chassis guys need to start getting serious and putting these cars out on the street after 30 days of non-payment. It hurts their business for everyone to see cars sitting over in the corner for years and no one offers much sympathy when the chassis guy says "hey, not my fault, they ran out of money." Do it right, get a mechanic's lien on the car, and sell it for what's owed plus storage fees. Just my thought cause I've seen this happen in Houston, Dallas, and now Austin where I live.
Date Posted:18:17:04 07/09/09 Thu
U had no reason to ban me, I was not rude or disrespectful to you or Mike. Mike does great work, but this car has sat there for almost 1 1/2 yrs for work that could be done in 2 months. Mike choose to start on it then take other cars in on a wim and knock those out. I just think it is not right to take on more work b4 u finish ur current projects. Like I said Mike is a great guy and nothing against him at all. But that is not right for that car to sit on the back burner for that long. And it is not a money issue, the owner has plenty of it and even offered, more money if it was needed. Thats all, ban me again Joe, I am not being disrespectful to anyone.

On here you read only one side of the story, that a shop is not working on someone car. Why is it taking so long?
A lot of customers rush their car in a shop and claim to have money growing out of their ears, and falling off the trees, They want this and that, and ask when can you have it ready. They go out to impress their buddies that they got their car in the shop being worked on. We are here their side of the story which sounds impressive. But you didn't hear, when he told the shop owner when it was time to make a down payment that he will give him some cash when he get paid friday. What friday is he talking about. After the job is finish. Down payment never materialized. Mean time the buddies are on the outside looking in, and thinking that the shop owner is slow working this guys car, but they don't know the complete situation, only what the car owner feeds them. So the shop get a bad rep on his work. Talked about and criticized on websites like this. But they know the complete senario of the situation. No one know the facts, or the truth of the matter.
Guys need to stop taking their cars to shops and leaving them and don't have the funds to pay for them. When you got to work pay check to paycheck, to pay for a car you need not tot to be messing with racecars. Guys like this is what holds up the shop owner time, and space, and keep the guys that got the funds to pay for their cars from getting worked on in a timely manner.
[> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: THE OTHER OTHER SIDE...... SHOP OWNERS SHOULDN'T TAKE WORK IN AND BLAME THE FLAKE - THE SHOP OWNERS POOR JUDGE OF CHARACTER SHOWS WHEN HE IS GETTING BAD MOUTHED BY A DISISSAFITED CUSTOMER. SHOP OWNERS WITH POOR JUDGEMENT DESERVE TO BE BASHED!

IN 25 YEARS IN RUNNING A GARAGE/HOT ROD SHOP - I HAD 2 COMPLAINTS -NEVER WAS ONE ABOUT NOT GETTING WORK OUT ON TIME, NEVER GOT A HOT CHECK. I SENT A LOT OF TROUBLE DOWN THE ROAD, I HAD ENOUGH SENSE NOT TO TAKE IT IN.
I HAD A LOT OF GREAT CUSTOMERS, MIKE HAWKINS AND GARY "BIRDMAN" WEATHERLY COME TO MIND. THESE GUY REALIZED THAT CUSTOM WORK DOESN'T ALWAYS GO AS PLANNED AND WERE WILLING TO PAY EXTRA FOR ADJUSTMENTS OR ADD ONS TO THE PROJECT. THE 'BIRDMAN NEVER COMPLAINED ABOUT PRICE, PAID HIS BILL AND KEPT COMING BACK. GOOD CUSTOMERS ARE HARD TO FIND -FLAKES ARE A DIME A DOZEN!
Date Posted:10:05:46 07/10/09 Fri
Well I'm one of those paycheck to paycheck people that loves the sport of racing. So when I want something I try and over estimate what I think the cost might be. Then I get my money together so that when I call or go by the place I either have more or I'm so close to what it takes I don't even trip on the price I just pay. I've met Mike and he seems like a real good guy to me. Hell I know several guys that he have done work for and they say yeah take it over there he's good.

Wish I had that ol'e Calvalier. Looks like you could bring it at 2500lbs. Bitch went 4.80's w/o bars at 2850". Can't wait to see all of the BS over this class like "stock appearing", etc. sounds pretty cool though.
Date Posted:17:29:33 07/08/09 Wed
That was on trues too. sounds like you could slap some big w's on their and go hunting. What do you say Clint??? that would be sick. prolly be back back dominating like the old days. 2500 on w's dayumm.

I wish I couuld but we have already sold the intake and carbs.
And all the stuff is here for the Turbo. We were going to run in Joes true ten race but I geuss we will have to take it on the road now LOL. Too bad all these rules keep changing. Hell they will change again next week LOL.
Date Posted:06:24:24 07/09/09 Thu
KLINT YOU SAY "Too bad all these rules keep changing. Hell they will change again next week LOL." IT WOULD BE A LOT EASIER ON ME TO NEVER CHANGE THE RULES. CAN YOU IMAGINE HOW NICE IT WOULD BE ON ME TO MAKE A SET OF RULES AND NEVER HAVE TO CHANGE THEM, IT WOULD BE GREAT!
I THINK A BETTER QUESTION WOULD BE WHY DO ALL RACING ORGANIZATIONS CHANGE RULES ALL THE TIME? DOES NASCAR NHRA IHRA ADRL TXDRL ECT JUST LOVE TO PISS RACERS OFF BY RULE CHANGES? WE RAN THE HTT5 RULES FOR 3 YEARS AND NEVER CHANGED A THING STILL WASN'T GOOD ENOUGH
CLASS RULES IN ANY RACING ORGANIZATION ARE FOR 2 THINGS, SAFETY AND TO KEEP THE CLASS COMPETITIVE. RACERS ARE A STRANGE BREED IF THEY KNOW THEY CAN'T EVER WIN -DON'T HAVE A CHANGE THEY WON'T COME BACK AND COMPETE.
RULES AND RULE CHANGES ARE TO KEEP A CLASS COMPETETIVE -TRY TO KEEP AN EVEN PLAYING FIELD. OUR NEWEST CLASS THE 8.5 OUTLAW'S WAS THE HOTTEST THING GOING UNTIL WAYNE AND KENNY RAN A STRING OF MID 5.50'S AT THE LAST TXDRL EVENT. THE AVERAGE 8.5 OUTLAW RAN 5.90'S. WHAT WAS A VERY HOT CLASS IS CLOSE TO DISSAPERAING. SEVERAL OF THE TOP 8.5 CARS ALL BUT TOLD ME THEY WERE DONE SUNDAY NITE.
TO KEEP A CLASS GOING WE NEED AN 8 CAR SHOW, THAT MEANS WE NEED ABOUT 12 CARS BECAUSE THERE IS ALWAYS SOME BROKE AND DOWN. YOU DON'T ENCOURAGE A BUNCH OF GUYS TO BUILD CARS FOR A CLASS THEY AIN'T GONNA EVER BE COMPETITIVE. THAT'S THE REASON FOR RULES.
NOW YOU HAVE THE SPECTATORS -THEY DECIDE THE PURSE. THIS IS THE #1 ITEM RACERS NEVER CONSIDER. IT DON'T MATTER HOW GREAT YOU THINK YOU ARE IF THE SPECTATORS WON'T PAY TO SEE YOU RUN -THAT CLASS IS DEAD. TAKE THE OTTA CARS $6500 PAYOUT AND NO SPECTATORS NONE. HOW LONG WILL RACE TRACKS KEEP BOOKING A SHOW THAT LOOSES MONEY EVER RACE. 40 PAID SPECTAORS AT THE CRANDALL RACE. THIS IS THE 4TH OR 5TH YEAR FOR TT5 RACING IN TEXAS -WHATS THE EXCUSE FOR NO FANS NOW, JUST WAIT IT WILL GET BETTER IN 4 OR 5 MORE YEARS?
NOBODY IS COMING TO THE TT5 EVENTS. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MANY RACE CARS THAT SHOW IT'S THE FANS IN THE STANDS THAT THE RACE TRACKS COUNT. YOU CANNOT KEEP MULTI MILLION DOLLAR TRACKS OPEN WITH EMPTY SEATS. AS A PROMOTER IT'S MY JOB TO FILL THE SEATS FIRST -HATE TO TELL YOU BUT RACE CARS COME SECOND. IF YOU GUYS DON'T DRAW SPECTATORS YOU AIN'T GONNA HAVE THESE SUPER TRACKS TO RUN ON IS THE BOTTOM LINE.
WE STARTED OUT TRYING TO GO BACK TO THE OLD TT5 RULES TO MAKE THE CLASS INTERESTING TO THE FANS -THEY AIN'T COMING OUT FOR THE CURRENT TT5 FORMAT. I GET "0" HELP FROM THE TT5 RACERS TO HELP BUILD A FAN BASE -"0". THEY ARE SO ARROGANT THEY STILL WANT THE BIG PURSE EVEN WITH EMPTY STANDS. YOU NEVER SEE A TT5 RACER POST ON THE GOSSIP -YOU AIN'T GONNA GET PAID WITHOUT FANS AND YOU AIN'T GONNA GET FANS IF THEY DON'T KNOW WHO YOU ARE- IT'S THAT SIMPLE.
KLINT DOES MAKE A POST AND I APPRECIATE IT BUT HE IS BASHING ME FOR CHANGING THE RULES. THAT AIN'T THE KIND OF HELP I NEED. FOR TEN YEARS I HAVE BEEN HOLDING EVENT WHERE THERE WERE NOT FOR THE LITTLE GUY. YOU ALL FORGET WHEN I STARTED THERE WASN'T NOTHING BUT BRACKET RACING. I AIN'T THE BAD GUY HERE. I'M TRYING TO BALANCE WHAT THE FANS WANT AND WHAT THE RACERS CAN DEAL WITH. THE FANS ARE GREAT, GIVE 'EM AN EXCITING SHOW AND THEY WILL COME OUT. THE RACERS ARE THE ONE AT FAULT FOR NO SPECTATORS -IT DON'T MATTER HOW GREAT YOU THINK YOU ARE IT'S UP TO THE PAYING CUSTOMER TO DECIDE THAT PART.
FIRST OF THE WEEK WE STARTED OFF TRYING TO GO BACK TO THE OLD RULES FOR TT5 BUT SOMEONE SUGGESTED A NEW BACKHALF CLASS. I THINK IT IS A GREAT IDEA!! YOU WANT TO KNOW WHY NO TURBOS OR BLOWERS, AIN'T GONNA BE MUCH OF A CLASS WITH ONLY 2 OR 3 CARS RUNNING IN IT. KENNY HAS JUST ABOUT KILLED THE NEW 8.5 CLASS. MAYBE WITH A FRESH SET OF RULES FOR A BACKHALF CLASS WE CAN TRY AND MAKE 8 CARS COMPETITIVE INSTEAD OF 3 OR 4. WHY GO TO A TT5 RACE WHEN YOU KNOW WHO IS GOING TO WIN, BEEN THERE -SEEN THAT, THE FANS AIN'T COMING SO IT'S TIME FOR SOMETHING NEW.
WE NEED SOME NEW PLAYERS, THE TXDRL HAS A NICE SPOT LIGHT FOR RACERS BUT IT WILL TAKE SOME HELP TO GET A NEW BACK HALF CLASS RUNNING. MR Mike Ragusa jr HAS STEPPED UP AND SAID HE WOULD COMMIT, THANKS. WE WILL RUN THE "BATTLE OF THE BACKHALFS" IN THE TXDRL AS LONG AS WE HAVE PARTICIPANTS. IF WE GET PARTICIPANTS THE FANS WILL DETERMINE IF IT STAYS. RACERS MAKE THE BACKHALF RACE EXCITING FOR THE FANS.
I WILL RUN ANY CLASS OF 8 CARS THE SPECTATORS WILL PAY TO SEE. IF WE DON'T GET 8 CARS IT IS TIME TO ADJUST THE RULES OR CANCEL THE CLASS. I HAVE DONE A LOT BY MYSELF OVER THE LAST 10 YEARS WE HAVE BEEN FIRST WITH EVERYTHING FROM MESSAGE BOARD TO EVENTS. NOW IF THE RACERS WOULD EVER DECIDE TO HELP WE COULD REALLY DO SOME GOOD THINGS. I AIN'T THE ENEMY HERE, I AM GUILTY OF TRYING, THAT'S ALL.
WE WILL RUN ANY CLASS WITH ANY RULES YOU GUYS WANT AS LONG AS THE CARS COME AND THE SPECTATORS WILL PAY TO SEE IT. THATS THE PUZZLE -NOW HELP ME SOLVE IT. joe
Date Posted:09:20:18 07/09/09 Thu
Sounds like a cool class. I like the idea of limiting the deck height to 10.2 for the Chevys (not sure about the Ford stuff) and the weights seem in line. The break for the conventional style head is cool too. We have 2 cars and I'm pretty sure that we could bring a couple more old school back half cars from Mississippi with us once a month.
[> [> [> Subject: Excellent post! You have said this before, but for some reason the guys always seem to miss it. Nobody wants to see the same 2 to 4 cars run each other all the time. Keep the rules the same, it only benefits the cream. Change them often, gives others a chance to at least try for a while.
A LOT OF RACERS HAVE ASKED ME TO TAKE SOME OFF THE TOP AND PAY FARTHER DOWN. THIS IS WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO.
THIS IS THE PURSE I WANT TO PAY FOR 8 BACK HALF CARS AFTER A COUPLE RACES IF IT LOOKS LIKE THE CLASS IS GOING TO WORK. I WOULD LIKE TO PAY THIS THE FIRST RACE IF THE CROWD IS THERE AND WE GET 8 CARS! THIS IS FOR 8 FOR REAL COMPETITIVE BACKHALFS... NOT 5 CARS WITH 3 RINGERS IN JUST FOR THE CAR COUNT.
Date Posted:10:51:13 07/09/09 Thu
Don't bash me I just want to ask..... What happened to the "Street King" stuff and clobberthons? I always enjoyed watching these races. Ever thought about maybe running your races 2 times a month? Maybe 1 at HMP and 1 at Angleton. Those guys need some help getting cars to their track and Joe, I think you are the key. LOL
[> [> [> [> [> [> Subject: This is going to be so wonderful!! I just can't wait to see all of the slow cars getting a chance to win!!! What an accomplishment. All they had to do is get rid of all of the fast cars and now they'll be on top!! Stupidest shit I've ever seen. The fans like to watch the fast cars haul ass. You may be making some "old School" racers happy, but don't think for one second that the fans are gonna be happy. You will have the same amount of fans because they are out there to hang out cause that's what they do, but they won't be as excited as when the fast cars are there! Have fun Joe!
Date Posted:18:20:17 07/09/09 Thu
I like old school backhalves, but the rules have to get established and stay that way for a good while. Remember this class is directly towards the regular guy, not the bankers, so changing the rules will require changes that may be expensive. If so, it will take a REGULAR guy longer to get his car back into the class. Leave a set of rules alone and the more cars that get built the maore that can join in. Just make the rules so that it is possible for anyone to build. Alum blocks and big chief/pontiac heads, data loggers and the like are very expensive and if a car is running all that type of stuff is much more likely to dominatw a class for us regular guys.
I like your events joe just keep it real. Times are hard, money is tight for most, and race cars come 2nd to family.
Date Posted:18:21:01 07/09/09 Thu
Joe is as much as I dont want to say, he is 100% correct. The fans would rather see close competitive racing than just 3 fast cars dominating the competition. It is people like you with a brain the size of a knat that act the way that you do, you also feel that you should be paid 100,000 to win and there is no one in the stands....this is real simple economics and does not take a college degree to figure out...
without fans in the stands with good close racing then maybe you should take up gardening, you must pack the stands for successfull show and having 2 or 3 fast cars and the rest field fillers aint going to make it.
Date Posted:18:51:15 07/09/09 Thu
have all of you fucktards ever thought that maybe people don't come because of lack of marketing skills or the fact that the promoter has shit on everyone that ever helped with their time, money, effort, blood, sweat and tears? The list is long and the events used to be bad ass. Instead of trying to race every month maybe its time to come up with a monster event and spend the quality time, money, effort, blood sweat and tears that it takes to have a GREAT show. Just remember the first few events and the people who helped start them. They have gone, why??? Cause they got shit on. I remember them and the efforts that so many put in to make some GREAT shows. What is the biggest crowd at these events in the last couple of years? MAYBE 500 in the crowd. Ever think that getting on the right side of the right people and staying there would create great local racing??? Makes sense to me. Let BS fly, right?
Date Posted:23:29:40 07/09/09 Thu
Joe I agree with rules to keep the same cars from winning over and over, hell nobody is going to go to race or movie when they already know the outcome. To me that is just common sense. I would rather run the back half class too but my new set up will not fit. No big deal for me I was just saying how I will not be able to run this new class with my new set up.
Here the way it works for the small timers like my self. Last year we attended every race as long as the car was together. We knew the Turbos had us by a tenth but that can usually be made up on a tree or theycould redlight. Oh and there is Kyle also who usually has everyone covered by a tenth. Any ways Justin,s new car came out and a few other turbo cars and now we were down by 3 tenth. We waited till the new rules came out and decided the only way we could remain competetive would be to go Turbo. Well I can not find that money tree so I will probably mis this whole season and then next year the rules will change again. I AM JUST SAYIN.
The back half class should be a success because there are so many of them out there that should give you plenty of cars to fill the field and you will probably have to actualy qualify to make the BUMP.
On another note I think we should have something for Kenny and Wayne with the other 8.5" truck project by next race. I think this small block should put Kenny and Wayne on the trailer if we get it figured out in time.
Date Posted:01:59:26 07/10/09 Fri
ok well how many time u gonna run this class before you drop it from the program? and like ceo said you need some advertise more. not to be an ass or nothin but i live 2 hrs away and u never here shit on the radio about hmp. but growing up my dad and jason would match race agiants gene deputy up at e-town and for months youd hear about it on the radio. and e-town was 3 hrs from were i lived. and when race day came the stands would be plum full. that little music box we all listen to at work or in the car makes a huge diff. even flyers in stores. if u made some flyers id be more than willing to go around and see if some stores will put the in there doors or even let u put then on the counter.

Joe, didnt you say in an above post that Mike was going to help you out? Now you dont want his help? Just give it a little while this class will be very fast. Classes always start out slower then after a few people figure things ot it gets very fast. Kinda like the 8.5 class.

It wasnt meant personally. I was confused as if this was the same person. I have been around racing quite a few years myself and know what it takes to get spectators in the stands. Fast cars! Period! No one wants to see slow cars. Why do the national events with the pro cars always fill the stands, because the cars are fast. True 10.5 cars draw a crowd because its insanity on 10.5 tires. Back in the day at navasota I remember the Fsta running. The final of one event was Strange Brew crew and Kyle. Both cars sidways pedaling it most of the track and sideways at the finish. Its a balance between car count and spetators. Ultimately the spectators pay the racers, but without racers there are no spectators. I hope this class works out and wish it the best of luck.

We used Houston Engine & Balance for a blower motor needs.
They built us a good blower motor. We have had the engine running on pump gas for 2 1/2 years at the drag strip and on street. We are running 7% boost and running low 10's & high 9's in 81 El Camino. Still tuning car.
They are a reliable company & have treated us good. Also, gave good resouces on motor for tuneups & parts.

Run up nigga means if you are on here talking shit and you have a problem with me personally approach me when you see me and I will knock your ass out. Whiteboy who made the post it is really not a black thing because the word nigga is used by different races and it becomes a problem when you are any color but black and you use nigger. There is a difference from the two. Nigger is a straight derogatory word which was meant to tear black folks down where nigga can be a friend,foe or anybody. Also for the guy who keeps typing with the cc instead of ck for those that dont know this is usually gang affiliated with the crip gang because the ck means crip killer and they type or write cc for the respect of their gang.

BAYTOWN MAN SENTENCED FOR MARIJUANA TRAFFICKING
BEAUMONT, TX – U.S. Attorney Rebecca A. Gregory announced today that a 41-year-old Baytown man has been sentenced to federal prison for drug violations in the Eastern District of Texas.
GEORGE FABIAN BELL pleaded guilty on Oct. 20, 2008, to conspiracy to distribute and possession with intent to distribute more than 1,000 kilograms of marijuana and was sentenced today to 188 months in federal prison by U.S. District Judge Thad Heartfield.
According to information presented in court, beginning in July 2006, Bell began purchasing 300 to 450 pounds of marijuana per month in the Houston area. Bell would then arrange for the marijuana to be transported through the Eastern District of Texas to Florida where it would be distributed. Bell admitted that from July 2006 until June 2008, he conspired with others to traffic a quantity of marijuana greater than 1,000 kilograms, but not to exceed 3,000 kilograms. Bell was indicted by a federal grand jury on June 25, 2008 and charged with federal drug trafficking crimes.
This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Hobbs.
IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE EASTERN DIVISION OF TEXAS BEAUMONT DIVISION
Docket Number available at www.versuslaw.com
Citation Number available at www.versuslaw.com
October 21, 2008
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
v.
GEORGE FABIAN BELL DEFENDANT
The opinion of the court was delivered by: Earl S. Hines United States Magistrate Judge
Findings of Fact and Recommendation on Guilty Plea
Before United States Magistrate Judge
Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b), this matter was referred to the undersigned United States Magistrate Judge to receive defendant's guilty plea.
On October 20, 2008, defendant, defendant's counsel, and the government came before the court for guilty plea and allocution on Count I of the Indictment filed herein, charging a violation of 21 U.S.C. § 846. After conducting proceedings in the form and manner prescribed by Rule 11 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, the undersigned accepted the guilty plea and finds:
(1) Defendant, after consultation with counsel of record, knowingly and voluntarily consents to pleading guilty before a United States magistrate judge, and did plead guilty to Count I of the Indictment subject to final approval of the plea agreement, conviction and imposition of sentence by the district judge to whom this case is assigned.
(2) Defendant is fully competent and capable of entering an informed plea, is aware of the nature of the charges and the consequences of the plea, and the plea of guilty is a knowing and voluntary plea supported by an independent basis in fact containing each of the essential elements of the offense.
(3) Defendant's plea is made pursuant to a plea agreement, a copy of which was produced for inspection and filed in the record. The plea agreement is of the type specified in Fed. R. Crim. P. 11 (c)(1)(A) and (B), in that (1) the government agrees to not bring, or move to dismiss, other charges and (2) the parties agree and make a non binding recommendation that a particular provision of the Sentencing Guidelines, policy statement, or sentencing factor does or does not apply.
(4) Defendant was advised that the court would defer its decision as to acceptance or rejection of the plea agreement until there has been an opportunity to consider the presentence report.
(5) Defendant was further advised that if the court chooses not to follow the plea agreement's stipulations regarding appropriate sentencing factors, defendant will have no right to withdraw the plea.
(6) Defendant was further advised that if the court accepts that part of the plea agreement provision wherein the United States agrees to dismiss or not bring other charges, such agreed disposition will be included in the judgment. Defendant was further advised that if the court rejects that provision, the court will give defendant an opportunity to withdraw the plea of guilty. Defendant was further advised that if defendant were to then choose not to withdraw the plea of guilty, the court may dispose of the case less favorably toward the defendant than the plea agreement contemplated.
RECOMMENDATION
Defendant's guilty plea has been accepted. The court should defer its decision as to acceptance or rejection of the plea agreement until it has an opportunity to consider the presentence report. If the court ultimately decides to accept the plea agreement, defendant should be adjudged guilty of the offense to which he has pleaded guilty.*fn1
Opinion Footnotes *fn1 Upon conclusion of plea proceedings, both parties stated that they do not object to the findings and recommendation stated above. Moreover, magistrate judges accept felony guilty pleas for purposes of Rule 11, Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, upon direction of a United States district judge and with consent of the parties under the "additional duties" clause of the Federal Magistrates Act of 1968, codified at 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(3). Section 636(b)(3) does not provide a party with ten days to file written objections. Minetti v. Port of Seattle, 152 F.3d 1113 (9th Cir.1998); see also United States v. Brumer, 528 F.3d 157 (2nd Cir.2008), United States v. Reyna-Tapia, 328 F.3d 1114 (9th Cir.2003).

Joe, Why are you pointing out that a smaller motor won? Everytime someone does that with Glidden you jump all over them. I remember back in the day that is was cool when Naiser's small block was beating all the big blocks. For some reason it's just not as unique when Glidden's small block continues to prevail. Why the difference?

Joe,
It doesn't bother me either way. I'll pull for Jeff every time. He's the hometown guy! I was only pointing something out that seemed odd to me... Regardless of who it is, I think it's cool when the smaller motor wins. I liked seeing Jeff kick that big block butt with his SB. Trust me, I won't lose sleep over it and I'm sure you won't either. Thanks for the space.

Todd was in the lanes as Billys did his burnout. Here is the "FUNNY" shit!After Billy melted his shit!

YOU FIRST HANDICAPP THE SHIT OUT OF THEM SO THEY GOT TO WEIGH 200-300 LBS MORE THAN A BIG BLOCK CHEVY WITH NITROUS; THEN YOU BAN THEM FROM THE CLASS. TALK ABOUT PULLING MONEY OUT OF YOUR OWN STUPID ASS POCKET. JOE YOUR IDEA IS AN OLD HALF BAKED ONE THAT JUST ALIENATED ABOUT 40% OF THE CARS THAT COULD RUN YOUR EVENT. SMART!!!!

The more I think about this class, I think it could be a good idea for the small guy. Most guys that follow this board might have a little backhalved small block car with some gas on it. The turbo guys, for the most part, are big dollar guys with alot of money.

It's real simple Dude. There are HUNDREDS of old school back half cars out there that the common working man owns that CANNOT afford to go turbo. We are on budgets and can only afford a big engine or something like that. How about backing up a little and giving some of of middleweights a place to race.

Joe If your going to make A back half class lossen on the tire size and that should bring more cars, most old school cars fit bigger tires...just saying

most purpose built tt5 cars dont fit large tires and that might even the playing field say Kenjos 10.5 w vrs say big tire nitrous back half.I know my 60s with the big tires ar in the low teens bur w/10.5s in the 19s 20s...it will also bring out a lot off cars sitting in the garrage...remember navasota back half races those were great alot of what happend back then led to where we are at now..just might have to go back to old school for a while..there are more cars to fit that class if the Robs,kenjos and wheats show they wont be as strong when the big nitrous and big tires meat..................................................
