Right about here is where Joe Newman would post a picture of that works 78ish RC500 he had and I wish he were here to do it.

The story I always heard was that Emig had agreed to sit the race out in solidarity with the other racers. Then went against his word and raced the depleted field behind everyone else’s back. That would certainly be something I would remember about a fellow competitor if true.

It’s an act to promote a product.

Careful what you wish for. Nascar became huge in the early 2000s. Ultimately, they turned that sport into a circus trying to hold on to those "casual fans". Long time fans left the sport in disgust as Nascar came up with gimmick after gimmick trying to appeal to fans that were never truly invested in the sport. Becoming mainstream killed what was once a great series.

Congratulations Kenny! You deserve it more than anyone!

I work at Heartbeat Hot Sauce, and thus am involved with Team Solitaire. I was working A1 last year and Ken came over late Thursday with his bicycle and asked to store it in our semi because his was locked up and everyone was gone for the day. I told him no problem and we chatted for a minute or two. The next morning he swung by to grab the bike and said “Hey Tanner, thanks again for doing this!” And I couldn’t believe he remembered my name. Couldn’t be more happy for him to win.

Sports rarely give out fairy tale Championships. This is that moment In ours.

It’s their show. Why should just anyone be able to monetize their show?
