Clemens did retire from the Yankees.They took all kinds of stuff for theBBHOF.Then lets see Texas offers him big $$$ and he unretires.Then the next year he was retiring again till the wallets came out again.Almost at bad as some of the old boxers that did it.Maybe they should go to the WWE.Those guys retire every year.Rocky




Don't recall that retirement press conference..but Clemens did go to Houston along with Pettite because he wanted to be closer to family and home..then came back to the Yankees mid-season the following year or the year after..

WJ has been complaining about the fuel cars for years. He used to complain all the time that the P/S cars couldn't get down the track because of the clutch dust from the "silly cars".

Yes, NHRA does cater to the fuel cars. You tend to do that when they are the ones paying the bills. WJ needs to remember that P/S and PSB run before fuel so that there are people in the stands when they run. They used to run P/S last and as soon as the last fuel car lit the stands started emptying out like you flushed a toilet.

P/S and everything else are merely space fillers for fuel.

Water through the track is unacceptable, but your only other recourse is to postpone the event for a day or 2 until the groundwater level goes back down. They fight this all over the place. They crashed cars at National Trails and Norwalk because of it.




Norwalk did something about it though. It cost us a points race but the repaved the last 1/8 to get rid of it. That the week before the National event.
