AllZWay Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Yeah, me too, but for a different reason. You mean you weren't flattered.... At least I can honestly say I had nothing to do with that. James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ernesto Roco Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Did Exxon Valdez show up and spray down the whole track? I lost count after 10 counting the spins from the Mosty driver. Holy cow. Was there a black flag available? Were the corner workers asleep? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllZWay Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Did Exxon Valdez show up and spray down the whole track? I lost count after 10 counting the spins from the Mosty driver. Holy cow. Was there a black flag available? Were the corner workers asleep? There are two Mosty drivers.... and this was an entire season not just one race.

nape Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Would you have rather watched 20 minutes of clean laps in no traffic? This is a region's videos from an entire season edited down to clips that have ENTERTAINMENT value. Go look at pictures of cars after the Daytona 24 hr race, they looked worse after about a season's worth of race time with "professional" drivers.

donovan Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 26+ Texas Region races in clips less than 5 seconds long. That is roughly 12+ hours of track time * the number of cars that ran video edited down to 18 minutes. We are all Cowboys... We race with our boots on and we are still trying to figure out how to hook the HANS device to our cowboy hats. We oil down the track before every race to enhance the videos! Enjoy!

donovan Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Am I the only one that sees a whole bunch of unnecessary contact and bone headed driving? If it was a 20 minute race I would agree with you, but its not... read my post above. DD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawg Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 appreciate the heads up on how they do it in t-town. that how goes when you try to tame wild mustangs; they turn into bucking broncos! did see some pretty fast hands. wish i could have seen the guys face when the tire came off. probably the best of all. appreciate the video. really does show the reality on what could happen out there. its not all fun and games.

tacovini Posted February 8, 2007 Author Share Posted February 8, 2007 If you guys want to see a better representation of how we do it in Texas, just take a look at the Top 10 CMC results from the Mid-Ohio Nationals. -=- T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tacovini Posted February 8, 2007 Author Share Posted February 8, 2007 It's all good! I had my smiley face in there! I love all the banter and can certainly play up to the Cowboy persona just like the next guy. I will say that I'm pretty proud of the guys/gals we have in Texas and think we have some of the best racing goin' for the level we're at in AI/CMC. The video shows all of our season's highs and lows....our rookies and our racing veterans. Some of the more entertaining clips were from our Rookies in each of the series, who had awesome racing seasons, placed higher than any other new guy...and...still remain, Rookies. (Remember those days?) In any case, I'm glad y'all enjoyed the video as much as we did "making" it!!! -=- Todd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, we are kidding - yep, no doubt about it and do apologize for presenting the video that contrasts with your utopian ideals.
