iagree Still haven't figured out why Chuck gets to travel out of town to race when he has probably the worst record out of all of the guys on the list. Up in smoke every time and another loss for the 405. Not to mention the spitting incident. Don't care what the situation was, spitting on someone is uncalled for. Beat the man's a$$ or walk away.

I still find it funny that Chief talks about having another big buy in race this season "to find out who the baddest street racer is". Pretty sure Kye Kelly knows who the baddest street racer is. laugh2 Maybe Chief wants to have a qualifying race to see who gets the chance to race Kye?

They look tuff with the black shirts and all. I guess they are, most of us are arm chair drag racers.

Lots of out of town guys want a piece of Chuck, is why he goes. Chuck is a decent guy, but has a short fuse and guys continually try and push his buttons. What you see on TV is generally a VERY small part of the grief that some seem to want to give him. He takes a lot, he really does, but then enough is enough

Case in point, when I was recently out there.........they were having a drivers meeting. The Producer steps in and wants the guys to get a little more "animated" and hype it up some more............OK, they do exactly what the producer WANTS them to do. One guy gets mad, throws a hot cup of coffee on a group of guys that includes Chuck. Didn't go well after that for "coffee thrower"...........LOL!!!

As to the big money "Cash Days" race they are hyping........they had it, WAS big money. Ended up 57K winner take all and there was over 40 cars there, trying to get in the 32 spots

iagree I don't care how short your fuse is there is no excuse for spitting on another man. Shows ones class (or lack of) IMO.

Monte...I know about the cash days deal they do. I was referring to the first episode this season...at the end they're all sitting at a table and Chief mentions having a big race to see who the baddest is. I don't think he mentioned it being the cash days race.

Monte, have you heard anything out of Barefoot Ronnie since his fire? He hasn't posted on FB since.

I figure the guys in the photo are the ones on the payroll - the stars of the show - everyone else gets paid per appearance.
