The 84 thunder car jr drove is the dan monaghan car from the super stock division at delaware. JR purchased it from dan 2 wks ago and picked it up last week. The kid can drive with the best of them. Best of luck to him in his future endeavours.

that car had a 4 speed and sounded like it had 50 hp on everyone else and still couldnt run up front.

i dont think he would have got all the way to the front...he was having a heck of time just passing the 73 car in 12th for atleast 4 laps...actually bumped him up in corner 1 and that caused him to bump the 83 wade into the wall...i might be mistaken but that car didnt look like it had a stock rear end or stock front hubs like all the others...but he sure was flying up thru the pack till he had his troubles with the 73 and then the wall.

Well, I may have a biased opinion but he ran that race with a weak leaf spring and then it broke finally coming off 4...he did that with an awfull and broke car!

Thats if they can keep up with his car!

You're kidding, right?

You know that car was running the same lap times as the SLM at flamboro.

Thats all good and fine, but the top runners at both tracks are within spitting distance of the SLMs. I know at our track, the guys are running faster that Beiderman and Hanley did in the early 80s with higher powered equipment.

Quite frankly, I don't see the SLMs as "all that" anyway...not anymore. They don't go that much faster. IMO, they're just a louder and funkier looking option for guys who like less limitations.

Anyway, the post I referred to was when you insinuated that the Delaware guys wouldn't be able to keep up...at Delaware. Shaw, Elliott and those guys have come to Delaware in the past and have been "maybe back end of the lead pack" at their very best. Maybe if they were regular competitors it'd change. I'm sure it probably would. But to suggest that Howse would come to Delaware and leave everyone behind? Nuts to that.

Tell you what though, if Paul does come out to Delaware and win the first time around, I'll come to Flamboro the next week and let you guys shave my head right on the start-finish line right in front of everyone.

How's that sound?

I wouldn't say the Supers aren't much faster, it depends on the track, if the LM's were running 15.00 then they are definately close because i was timing the winning Super in practice and was getting about 14.9 with old tires on, so most likely a tenth or two quicker on new ones, and I was told that the times for the same car at the end of the feature were still 15.1 after 50 laps..but at other tracks I think that they are quite a bit faster, down to low 13's at Peterborough and very low 13's to high 12's on a good night at Barrie although there arent usually LM's there...and i think almost half a second faster anyways at Kawartha. If there is a good car count i find them to be a much better show as well.

Yea, At barrie they were good to watch, btu that show was just plain awfull...snoozefest....they were able to pull off and come back on the trqack in the top 10 cause there were only like 10 or 11 running out of th e15 or so that started...

All that means is it'll have to be teched carefully.

The offer stands. If Howse can come down here to Delaware and beat Pearn, Lindsay, Verhoeven and crew, and still pass tech, then I'll do as I said I'd do.

Shadowracer & Latemdel28 here we go again talking about Flamboro drivers to Delaware drivers.Remember both tracks are different Size,different turns and different set ups.As you were saying Flamboro driver (Howse) would have a hard time winning atDelaware.Dito to Delaware drivers going to Flamboro and not winning there also.To win at these tracks you have to go there more than 1 or 2 times a year.Whether it is a $20,000.00 or $60,000.00 you have to go more than twice.Hopefully during the off season these tracks (Delaware & Flamboro) can get together and figure out something so these drivers can go to these tracks more than twice. And then you can say this driver is better than that one.

Really ? I can remember a few guys unloading at both places that had never seen either and blowing everyone away over the years Bob Senneker and John Benson sr come to mind but i am sure i could come up with some others .

Im not trying to say that Howse is a better driver than anyone at delaware, i'm just saying I have seen that car on the track at it goes around like its on rails. Now I would also like to mention that when he starts out front he usually pulls half a track on second place. When he comes from the back its a little different but everyone knows flamboro is quite hard to get a car to run the outside and you usually have to nudge them up the traack or wait till they make a mistake.
