    I have a couple hundred k in credit with no balance and an 850 so that logic doesn't hold from my experience 

    Lack of debt or loan payment history is the reason for a lower credit rating.  That is fact.

    It's "Credit" rating not a financial well being.  It's a gauge on your ability to pay back a loan

    So you have an absolutely perfect credit score...850.

    You are in the top 1.31%.... congrats:bc:

    If you have a limited number of credit cards with no balance or actually a credit on them with no debts or loans that actually works against you on your credit report.

  3. Local guy started a facebook page of the old local dirt tracks around the area.  It's grown well and now have some of the old drivers or families of the old drivers sharing old pics and stores.  One of the local photographer is sharing pics from his collection.

    The guy that started the page actually found his dad's old coupe and is now in the process of restoring it.

    It's been years since I followed it closely (had a buddy who raced street stock then super stock), but we spent a fair share of time at Deer Creek (south of Rochester, MN), and also a few seasons in Fountain City, WI.  That was before most of us got married and had kids.  I tried to stay interested, but just kinda lost interest overall ... even with NASCAR (we'd go to a couple races every year).  Still though, I absolutely loved the excitement surrounding it & being at the track with the fellas :bc:

    When I use to have to go to Dodge Center Mn for work went to a track in Kasson a couple times.  Don't know if that track is still running or not

    When the response is, "That's just how it is here" ... it's time for a major overhaul, and it should start with the Superintendent and School Board.

    They are highly educated and studied the theory world but never spent one day in reality.  Education which is needed should but 50% classroom and book study and 50% real world. 

    A comparison I would give young inexperienced Engineers when they would reference a tech book is...Did they write the book and then prove out the theory or did they prove out the theory and then write the book.

  6. Way to much common sense in her thinking and bringing it to the surface so people need to address it.  That's what is wrong today.  Bring a problem up and having to address up front.  You may offend someone and hold them accountable. You can't do that.  >:(

    Don't have center steer modified around here in Wisconsin which looks like a good class.  Would compare them to a dirt late model here.

    Modifieds around here are based off of OEM front suspension but 3 link for sport mod and 4 link for modifeds either are a good competitive class.

    @racinfarmeractually runs a modified and can give you some better details of the class

  8. Been around racing since I was born in one way or another but never personally raced.  Where I live within 1-1/2 hrs have 2 asphalt tracks, 6 dirt tracks and Road America as a road course.

    When I have time dirt tracks are my preference and still know some guys that race.  Couple of the dirt tracks normally put on some good shows.  One on particular is 141 Speedway in Maribel Wi.  Couple times a year they put some good high paying programs for 8K to 12K to win for more of the local classes Sport Mods, IMCA stock cars, and mods.  Show normally gets pushed through with not much down time.  Last week was their opener they had 177 cars and the show was done in 3-1/2 hrs

    Pushing my luck about what exactly? 

    Would hope your smart enough to figure it out but if not there is rules about posting a members full name.  You've tried this move before so don't act surprised.

    It's a simple rule and shouldn't be hard to follow.

    Another post and yet no proof of registration. Why isn’t anyone backing you up on this? :lol2:

    Look who’s back! Chris L_____e, the guy who freaked out over his public Facebook photo getting posted on here. :roflcrying: How many times do you go crying to the mods per week Chris? Seems like if you used your fat aggression for something positive like going jogging you wouldn’t look like the poster boy for high cholesterol and middle aged heart attacks. 

    Wouldn't push your luck.
