Dude, NEVER tow your car on an open trailer with the car cover on, it will ruin your new paint job. It may be hard being you, but you sure seem to get a lot more out of less than anyone I know.

Old Yeller, we have never met but I have admired your car for years now. The first time I saw it make a pass was at Milan a couple years ago when it was murdered out. I have to say, I fell love with the car. You sir, are a pure bred racer. You do what you have to to get to the races and you lay it all on the line. Kudos to you. Maybe we can meet this season if you are going to be running in Milan's Friday night heads-up series. I also tow my car on an open trailer. Never for 2,000 miles, though.

..and to the dude that called me a mullet head,I,ll come to PA,but the race will be clocks off,that means no timing devices whats so ever,just a flag man and people at the end of the 1/4 mile to see who won,I know ur 7.80,s or quicker,but i,ll take that chance...Its a $5,000.00 race and my sticks stay on..i don,t have all that traction computer crap,u got 2 carbs..take a carb off and i,ll take off the sticks...
Now theres a race I would love to see!!! It would be in maryland not pa but who cares where, just keep us posted if it happens!Oh the car looks killer in the new paint.I would let you stay at my place if you want I am only a hour from cecil md

Humility doesn't suit you. 
I had some preconceived notions about you based on earlier posts that were way off the mark. ( no pun intended )
I apologize , and now appreciate your character for what it is.
I am a couple seconds away from ever grabbing a lane next to you , but it has been added to my bucket list.
I try to do a lot with less , but you have elevated it to an art form.
