Milwaukee Midget

[Tman]

My Rockies are out. I am watching the Cards and Dodgers.............

[Milwaukee Midget]

Well, shucks!

Racing Junk's News and Events department got us some virtual ink!

Last year's pictures, for certain - Neither Kate nor Simon were around, and the request came before I had Gregg's or Pork Pie's shots available, but needless to say, I'm tickled.

Very.  Wayno

Cool indeed, Chris, Thank you so much for giving the Jade Grenade one more chance to prove its self.

Cool indeed, Chris, Thank you so much for giving the Jade Grenade one more chance to prove its self.   

I'll tell you who needs to be thanked for that - Wayno.

I committed to a new engine late last year, and after the rain-out at Speedweek, I was ready to pack it in, pension off the A-motor, and come back in 2016 with the new MG/Rover twin-cam.

But Wayne - the well-connected visionary with the thick rolodex, and with the help of Gus, Bud McManus and Don Strong - put together a scenario where I was able to take that antiquated tractor motor and, indeed, let it prove itself.

The Speedweek program only reflects the team I knew I had going in this year - it turns out I had a bigger team than I had imagined.

It's my hope that someday I can either repay the favor, or as Fordboy has done with me, pay it forward.

It's an honor to run at Bonneville with all of you.  I will never lose site of that.

Gus will yell at me but, BIG emphasis on Gus.  He came up with the "PALE" on your license plate. Wayno

Thanks for the Racing Junk link. Current pics or not, some ink is better than none at all!

midget,

Nice coverage.

And now for the bad news . . . . .

Publicity brings notoriety.

Pretty soon the paparazzi will be on your doorstep, in your face and your life will be ruined.   But Snooki and Lindsey Lohan will want to date you . . . . . .

Be careful about what you wish for . . . . . .

Folks, this is what happens to a flatlander when the aberration of Thursday night football puts the Packers a half/game ahead of the Bears.  Even the calculating, educated and otherwise rational engineer starts pouring 'em back and flipping through the channels, ultimately landing on TMZ  

I just don't envision the Snookis and Lindsey Lohans of the world cruising the pages of "racingjunk.com" looking for dates.

No, I'm happy with Kate - although I still find Wanda Jackson a class act. 

[SteveM]

Maybe not Snookie or JWow - but I believe that Tonya Harding has some association with LSR.

Ha! with broken knee caps Chris would fit in the car easier!

Monte, did you show any indication that you'd like to have tried getting into Chris' car when he made his runs?  I don't know which of you is taller -- but I can see that a video of you attempting to clamber in might have been worth seeing on the internet - and maybe also at the USFRA dinner banquet in December.  Better than your Karnack routine, for sure.

It might be time to Camshaft the Magnificant to make a return visit at the awards banquet this year. I hear he has some new writers
helping him now....it might be better than before.
I doubt I could even get one of my feet into the midget, it amazes me Chris can get in there.  Once he is in there I have a hard time getting my hands inside to check the belts!!

[Milwaukee Midget]

It's really not that bad.  I've said it before, I wouldn't want to do 12 laps at Road America in it, but I'm only going three miles.

And the faster I run, the faster I can get out.

And Monte - about your hands on my belt . . .
