This is a heated debate about the Racesaver engine package coming into Eagle in 2013.

Odd Roger calls all but the top 4 sprints "turds".
This is supposed to be fun, right?

I'm sure that all of the sponsors enjoyed having his car and driver being called a "turd" what a great business man. This should tell the sprints what Roger thinks of you. lesson to the tape!

Budweiser Turds?
Sprints are the greatest, if I remember right!

Nice try Willis! I listened to the segment twice. Put Rogers comments into context! They were discussing motors and comparing the $26,000 plus motors to the less expensive motors as "turd" moters! Roger did not call out any of the sprint car guys turds! same thing said about the top 6 guys every week vs the also rans, same thing, big budget motors vs "turds"!

Don't think you listened very well. Try again and listen real good about 48 in.

Nice try SCHMUGA ! You better listen to that tape again, Roger said after the first 4 guys the rest were just turds, he said nothing about motors If you don't want to hear smiley sell his creat motor go to 43 minutes in and listen.

You guys call them field fillers which is a nice way of saying turd so what's the diff? I listened to the interview too, and I didn't hear any shining moments from any of them on either side of the debate. Same old bickering back and forth. Find some new stuff.

Wow,That was a good laugh, Adam is such a smuck he has maybe won 1 or 2 racers ever and doesn't even have his own car out there, 305's arent real race cars? LOL, I have drove all 3 classes of sprint cars and can tell you 305's are as much fun as the other 2 ,and I also drove the same 305 the next night after Jessie Hockett Ran it in Missouri as he ran a 360 at the same track, so your saying hes not a real racer either?, and so adam is saying take away 200 horsepower and your not a real racer, Well he just slammed all the old drivers that never had that much power, I remember going to races when I grew up with Jan Opperman and they never had all this modern equiptment,should have started a support class 3 years ago, know the car count is low and not to many people can afford a 360, If you don't want to race at eagle raceway then don't. Go on your world tour like you did when cormack owned the track, In 1999 I was the IMCA National Rookie of the Year and finished 4th in National Points, I got 4 Times the money and Contingencys then I got From Eagle for finishing 3rd in points in 2000, Roger will get cars...

Bolte I'm not suprised that's what you took from that conversation. You completely missed what Adam was saying. Doesn't take long for people like you to start. You raced a sprint car so long ago they probably only had 500hp, so it should be an easy adjustment for you. IF you can find someone to buy it for you.

Last Motor I ran was an Eckley, So I guess you can ask jay how much power it had, And I can buy my own equiptment I don't need to beg my way into a ride like others!!!

Anything without a 410 is not a "real" sprintcar, lol.
Funny how Gullion started out in a "minisprint", oh and so did Ackland, Jordan Boston, Bolte, Stu, Drueke, Ledger, Klabunde, and so on, good thing there were some "fake" race cars for these guys to race or you wouldn't have had the pleasure of watching them in the "real" ones.
I wonder why Adam even bothered with these fake cars for all that time?
(sorry for all the questionable name mis spelling)
BITES when cornered

It wasn't Adam saying they weren't real racers, it was French. Listen to the tape again class! 305's here were in the 16's as were most of the 360's. Stelzer was 16.984. They do get around there.
The argument is over the motor at Eagle. It's all about how your gonna get that many to start and make a class. Roger has one, motor and car. I want to see it out there this year so the fans can see how they run.
Things will need to change on attitude about sprints, in general, at Eagle.
Sprints are the greatest, if I remember right!

Where was the frontstretch radio show this past Sunday. I turned it on at 8:45 and the Coach and Coleman were on. Did it get booted off the air?
