You also have to think how much derbys have changed. Only 2 of the officials out there were ever any good at driving and could probably jump in a car tomorrow and be in the top 3. 80s cars are not built the same as old iron and you cannot drive them like old iron... And jake remember what willy said "thats part of derbyin"
Paul you say make them go head on, but i have also seen you puss out and whip the car around so the pinto wouldn't hit you head on, and only hit your cage.
P.S. I have 85 cans of blue spray paint for sale if anyone need some.

NICK BUILDS A VERY GOOD CAR, THE PROBLEM IS HE DICKS AROUND AND DICKS AROUND UNTIL SOMEONE FINALLY THREATENS TO BREAK HIS STICK. IF YOU BUILD A HARD CAR, SHOW HOW HARD IT IS AND MAKE SOME AGRESSIVE HITS, NOT PITTY PATTING AROUND. YOUR REPUTATION IS BEING A BAGGER, AND YOU KNOW IT.. IVE SEEN ENOUGH OF HIS AND EVERYONE ELSES BAGGING TO KNOW IT WHEN I SEE IT HAPPEN...BREAK STICKS, THEN SEE WHAT TAKES PLACE.......

Why the hell is everyone pissing and moaning about nick? The guy can build and drive smart. He's got the equipment to complete and knows how to put money in his pocket. Is that his fault? No. Is it the inspector or the judges fault? No. He built to the same rules everyone else did. Just because his cars and equipment are better get off his back.
What about dourty(sp) or gipsons cars. They were tracking people all night with the fronts and they stayed straight. The same argument they built to the same rules they made it through inspection. They have something figured out up front. Im all for the evolution of the sport.
If you guys don't like the way a guy drives or how hard their cars are build one harder and go out and change the out come your self. I dealt with enough fans in Ottawa bitching about the derby that had no clue what they were talking about to listen to drivers bitch. I asked some lady in the stands that if he had ever tried to drive a car with no power steering and flat tires and tried to hit a moving target. It's not easy. Neither is a kill shot with only 2 good drivers left running.
Ottawa was a good derby with a little bit of questionable calls so let it be already. Not every call is going to be the right one. Live and learn and build it better for the next one.

It's on the other drivers on the track. At Tongi EVERYONE in the main was going nuts, and Nick went ballistic as well. Of course he's gonna lollygag around if you let him. I would too lol.

I haven't seen anyone bitch about Nick.. And Trieb proved my point once again... Sam knows how to put on a show.. Fair inspection and people hit..

when it gets to the end and 2 cars are making smart hits instead of full speed crashes like you ALL seem to act like you would do its a way to win. like it or not when its down to the end VERY VERY few are going to back into the corner coming out for a full speed track shot not knowing if that 1 shot will also be the 1 that ends his own night.......................... as far as bagging driving away fans or drivers have any of you ever heard of MM? i think the fans and drivers continue to return yr after yr! ................ Jake as far as the call against you; are bad calls made? yes. i was there and it seemed as if 1 official made the call not all the officials.................. CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG BUT what it sounds to me like is that you are ALL asking for the promoters to choreograph the derby? this would mean that (he or they) would be easily able to determine who the winner would be ahead of time. would any of you run a show where they knew who THEY wanted to win ahead of time? ?? i personally want to determine my own fate. so i also have to say be careful what you are asking for ................................. let the drivers on the track drive, and the officials make sure everyone remains safe............................................................................................ I HATE BENCH DRIVERS! SANDBAGGERS MIGHT SUCK, BUT THEY ALWAYS BRING HOME THE MONEY!
