Short of allowing non-Outlaw bodied SLMs into the field, there's no outsiders to draw from that way either...

Ya, I have a friend that even races an Outlaw body down at Toledo and I don't even think he can race with OSCAAR. I was asking about that a few times, why he doesn't come up at the end of the season for Flamboro's Octoberfest and Peterboro's Autumn Colours?

I know I'll probably get flack for this but oh well, sorry Roy, but I prefer the looks of the other body style, i.e., Florida body.

Your buddy should be able to race with his outlaw body in Oscaar - our body rules are more open than down in the Michigan/Ohio area. It would be more likely we are not able to race with them at their track because of a body.

They are more open on their engine rules - think their only rule us bring a good one. If he was to bring his car up here he MAY have to run a restrictor plate, that I think would be about it.

Perhaps that's it Gord. Anyway it's Guy Pritchard, I'm talking about. When he had his old car he used to come up and race Flamboro and Peterboro. I know he'd like to do Flamboro because he grew up over in Carlisle and he has a lot of friends in this neck of the woods. Next time I'm talking to him, I'll find out for sure, what the problem is? If it's possible, I'll try and convince him to come up and race a few races with you guys.

Since he hasnt been mentioned here and I have no idea what his plans are for 08 I'll add Darin Malcolm!!! That guy's got an unreal amount of talent!! In my opinion could be the most talented driver that's raced LLM in the past couple years.

I'm not really sure to be honest Spencer. I did hear something about Darin wanting to race NCTS this year though. Seems like a big jump and not is skill level from driving a LLM as opposed to a NCTS car I"m speaking of, more in terms of budget. In the past couple years I think Darin has raced more for the fun and sport of it as compared to really desiring to be overly competitive. In the last season he ran for points at Barrie (2005) he won 5 features as well as the Fall Colors that year. So I do think he tries to be competitive and win as well, but my point is that its not the be all to end all with him, as opposed to someone like Walters where thats all that matters to him is winning!!! And I am in no means knocking Tommy at all as I have a great deal of respect for him and his driving abilities. Its just more of a different strokes for different folks in comparing those two drivers. But back to the 2005 season where Darin won all those features he really knows how to come up through the field and seemed to always find his way to the front his ability to negoiate traffic that year even outsurpassed our top runners ( Gaunt, Walters, and Watson) in my opinion!! Lets just hope Darin is racing somewhere this year as I love watching him and you wont find nicer people than Darin and father Brian to gab with in the pits.
