    Who is that?

    Just to be clear as a former racer. Anyone who wants to see a racer in fiery crash can just pound sand.

    I’m not bitter. My capacitance for dealing with people depends on the level of stupid that comes out of their word hole, and their ability to use responsible amounts of logic and deodorant.

    And considering your recent truck stop 'follies' (or foils .. haha!) the bar of tolerance is being lowered, on a daily. I hear ya.

    Winning due to another's horrible misfortunes is not winning at all in my book... Right @otterinthewater ?

    Have you ever just scrolled around threads to read peoples' signatures, or 'tag lines' if you will? I do it often. A few stick out in my mind; very well thought out. Do it sometime, just for the sake of entertaining boredom....like me today; it's taining again, and my weed eater is finally fixed, looking at me like I'm neglecting him/her. :(

    You'll learn things about people. A bit, anyway.

    That 'fake news' was tamed last week. No politics in here, bro~~!!! NASCAR is great, God is good, People are crazy.

    Last but not least; "What if it Snows?!?!" ;)

    I got no issues with racing. Nascar, or any other.

    I don't go out of my way to watch it, but if it's on, or I somehow end up at a race...I have a good time. I mean it's beer an cars. I do find it odd people will watch someone go around a circle 500 times but who am I to judge what tickles someones fancy.

    Plus living in NC...even if on a sandbar, I'd likely get run out of the state if I hated racing.

    I do enjoy poking fun at it though. Most fans are good sports about it, the ones that aren't...I just make fun of them to. ;)

    We have...mud bogging, and monster truck racing near the sandbar, and a local racetrack but it's never open. Nice straightaways. Either drag racing or motorcycles. If I remember right on the way in to the sandbar, coming from Va. you pass a Gravedigger truck and garage. They do rides there to around a small track and jump.

    These aren't my photos, but someone who works there or visited.

    I think they charge $5 for the ride.

    Part history, part fun, part tourist trap...lol...

    They also have a bunch of trophies and other stuff on display. Neat place to stop at every once in awhile. Tourists like it, and locals. They've been there for a good while. Up the road from them is where the Monster truck racing happens. Which is usually a pretty good time.

    Be safe folks.

    Sirscrapntruckalot - Is a fan of weird stops when traveling.

    I feel ya. Had my OWN a few years back; being too helpful to a 'new guy' actually got it shut down. Most of the guys on here, know it and remember it well.

    How old are you? Who do you drive for / what do you haul? A bit of an intro would help. We are a mixed bag of company (but more) O/O's on here, like Dave.

    @D.Tibbitt is our youngster/wonder child on here. Me, I've been 'benched' from here, myself. It's all about respect, man. No politics, bickering, bantering (unless its food or math related, LoL~!) No trolling, either. Dave's got a good group in here.

    @farmerjohn64 is TTR's 'overall' new 'wonderchild.' He's 21, and just started pulling flats for Western Express. He's got 2 new threads a day, LoL... but we usually show up to put our 2 cents, in; being his 'youth' and all, haha!

    Share a bit, we share back. :) You're fine.
