Just in case the thought crossed anybody's mind, I wasn't dissing LRC by not posting here > I only had limited use of the phone line in the pressbox, so I chose to post at 4m.net where most of the national stuff can be found. Thanks, jrhodes, for grabbing it and cross-posting over here. TP

Folks, I'm not just a reporter, I'm a dirt-track FOOL! Just in case anybody had any doubt about that. I'll take a dirt race over any NASCAR show 100 times out of 100.

We are very lucky to have Thomas Pope as a friend and fan in the dirt racing community. I have several of his articles in a scrapbook here at home. Check his stuff out online at http://www.fayobserver.com/sports. Thanks Thomas for all you do.
