Team Dumbo is having some fighting over the peanuts apparently. If you check out the 1:26 mark of the video from Richmond you will see my #7 Jack Daniels car spin out our #49 Addidas car. A bad, bad day for the team.

PilotMan · 02-10-2012, 08:31 AM

The cars obviously had a great day. Can't say that much about the drivers but what else do you expect from a couple of good ol boys? A pit road crash isn't indicative of a quality effort. Lots of wrecks, but it looks like it was a gearbox that put us out of the race. Rough to have a top 5 in the chase and a bottom 5 as well. It'll take some more good luck and consistency to stay/improve.

Wrecks happen, especially when slower cars don't get out of your way. Just move over and let us blow by and you can go back about your business.

BYU 14 · 02-10-2012, 09:08 AM

Nice, overall points lead for Ace Idol and Topaw racing! Hopefully the consistency continues.

britrock88 · 02-10-2012, 09:28 AM

Rip Lickingood continues to be caught in the accidents of the other poor drivers; this time, it's his suspension that gave way.

Helen Wheels began her usual comeback, and I saw her in what looked like the top 10 or so during the highlights. But she receded to 3 laps down and a middling finish, pushing her further down into the teens in the Chase standings.

TRO · 02-10-2012, 10:09 AM

Race turned into Survivor.

PackerFanatic · 02-10-2012, 10:43 AM

Terrible qualifying (to be expected) for Andrew Foley, but a 4th place finish is fantastic.

DataKing · 02-10-2012, 12:31 PM

Nice job by Tricky Dick to salvage an 8th place finish after getting caught up in a couple of those wrecks. And up to 5th in the overall standings...I'll take it.

RendeR · 02-10-2012, 02:06 PM

Both Chris and Aemon Snow worked magic as they avoided all the talentless hacks that were wrecking around them.

13th to 5th
30th to 6th - AWESOME day for Young Aemon! his quick wits avoided at least 3 wrecks.

another 32 places gained during the event and another back to back finish for this team. They know how to work together!

cmp · 02-10-2012, 02:07 PM

Mediocre showing for Cannon at Richmond. Started mid pack and finished mid pack. Currently sitting in the final chase spot so hopefully we'll have some good weeks ahead and move further into the top ten.

kingfc22 · 02-10-2012, 04:47 PM

Gonzalez with a much needed win to get us back in the race. Murrieta is still buried down in the standings and will need to get hot soon.

DanGarion · 02-10-2012, 05:06 PM

I missed the first couple races there. Glad I hit the wrong button and realized this was going on now.

wolverine29 · 02-10-2012, 05:15 PM

Stupid clutch! Qualified 10th and looked to hopefully get a good run in but the clutch gave way and Dexter finished 28th. Stuck in 30th in the points now. Time to get this thing turned around!

Trick Dickle and his team have the #15 Coors Light locked in early on in this Sprint Cup Season. He moved up from his 20th starting position to lead 236 laps and dominate the last half of the Coca-Cola 600 and win his 2nd race this season. Aemon Snow made a strong charge at the end but it wasn't enough to overtake Trick. Once again the Snow's finish back-to-back as Chris Snow finished 3rd after starting 25th. Kevin Kong was strong yet again as he finished 4th and Nick Phillips bounced back from a terrible Richmond race with a top 5. David Ginsberg, who had the strongest car early on finished 6th followed by Luke Duke, Andrew Foley, Mustafa Henderson and Ken Schoonover.

Coffee Warlord · 02-11-2012, 04:23 PM

Ahhh, now my drivers are back to their usual style.

britrock88 · 02-11-2012, 07:08 PM

Ninth Circle's drivers both qualify well at their home track. Helen Wheels edges into the lead position from her 6th-place start, but she fades to the back of the lead lap and a 16th-place finish. Rip Lickingood, meanwhile, fades from the 5th row to last among running cars. Don't know what's going wrong in the 07 car's shop.

cmp · 02-11-2012, 07:28 PM

Still trying to get the video finished for this race. It's giving me a few problems.

DavidCorperial · 02-11-2012, 07:46 PM

Wish I had done even better, but 6th place is still a great finish.

cmp · 02-11-2012, 08:30 PM

PackerFanatic · 02-11-2012, 11:43 PM

I'm glad my low qualifying/high finishing route with Andrew Foley isn't totally coming back to bite me yet...but whatever I tried with Elliot is clearly not working.

RendeR · 02-12-2012, 12:53 AM

7th to 2nd
25th to 3rd

another 28 places gained.

Another back to back finish as Father and son hook up and roll past the competition.

Chris snow up to 4th in the points
Aemon Snow from dead last at Daytona to 7th in the points 3 races later.

That car in your mirrors? Yeah, thats DOOM and its coming for YOU.

TRO · 02-12-2012, 03:31 PM

Teammates Kevin & Kerri Kong are having completely opposite seasons so far. One is 2nd, the other is 2nd to last.

PilotMan · 02-12-2012, 06:30 PM

Qualified 2 and 19, finished 7 and 12. Thats more like it. Now if we could just hang out and run strong for a whole race I think we could be back in the running. Looking at the overalls we are at 6 and 26. Those damn DNF's really take a toll on the numbers. We need to stay top 10 and reel these guys in.

DataKing · 02-13-2012, 11:16 AM

Woo!! Another clean race, another big win for the Dickle!

Here's hoping that the #15 silver bullet is setting up for a dominant season, and isn't just peaking early.

cmp · 02-13-2012, 12:59 PM

CrimsonFox · 02-13-2012, 01:01 PM

ack 13 and last....cmon WOlf you can do eeeeeeeeet

cmp · 02-13-2012, 01:03 PM

What more can you say about Trick Dickle right now. Once again, in a two car battle down the stretch it was Trick who had the strongest car and took home the win. This time he battled with Nick Phillips all day long as Nick led 111 laps, and Trick led 103. But Nick's car faded after the final restart, and despite a minor yellow flag accident that gave Trick's car a bit of damage no one could catch him as he went on to take his 3rd checkered flag of the season. Aemon Snow was 2nd followed by Mustafa Henderson, Cannon Pace and Phillips.

cmp · 02-13-2012, 01:05 PM

Trick Dickle is starting to pull away a bit at the top of the points. Mustafa Henderson has been consistent all year and sits in 2nd. Aemon Snow, Ace Idol and Cannon Pace round out the top 5. Andrew Foley and Bo Duke sit in a tie for the final Chase spot and Benton Gale and David Gonzalez hold the two wildcard spots currently.

cmp · 02-13-2012, 01:28 PM

Here is the video from Charlotte that wouldn't post before. The Phoenix video will be up soon.

PurdueBrad · 02-13-2012, 02:38 PM

Ouch, getting killed after a decent early start this season.

BYU 14 · 02-13-2012, 03:32 PM

I'll take a top 10 finish at the home track, keeps Ace solidly in the top 5 overall.

DataKing · 02-13-2012, 04:22 PM

Love it, love it, looooooove it! The Silver Bullet is really flying now...

Keep it up boys, and don't lose focus...

kingfc22 · 02-13-2012, 09:53 PM

FC Racing will need some tweaks in the offseason.

Gonzalez and Murrietta are brutal right now.

britrock88 · 02-14-2012, 01:32 AM

From the Charlotte video: Ninth Circle is a bit more disappointed coming away from North Carolina after seeing Rip's 07 Vanilla Coke car running in the top 10 early on, and Helen's 6 Discount Tire car running in the top 5 fairly late.

In Phoenix, Rip overcame a poor qualification, picking up 14 spots to finish 20th, but he is still struggling mightily this season. Helen once again waxed toward the front of the pack, but waned as the race went on, finishing 16th. (I thought the heat in Phoenix would suit her!) She is one position outside the Chase as of now.

DataKing · 02-14-2012, 12:52 PM

Wow that back end was really caved in...good thing Phoenix isn't a big aero track...

cmp · 02-15-2012, 12:19 AM

Cannon keeps qualifying well but can't quite pull off any wins or even lead that many laps. He's being consistent though and is 5th in points.

RendeR · 02-15-2012, 12:37 AM

1 full third of the top 6 Driver drive Snow Motorsports Cars.

Aemon Snow has made a miraculous comeback after starting the season at Daytona dead last in points. While wily veteran Chris Snow just keep posting top level finishes.

You want to look for favorites to be there at the end of teh chase? look for cars number 44 and 64!

cmp · 02-15-2012, 01:47 PM

Coffee Warlord · 02-15-2012, 01:49 PM

Oooh, a pole.

cmp · 02-15-2012, 02:01 PM

What a great finish today in the Pure Michigan 400, which you will see in the video. Nick Phillips and Ches O'Peake battled down the stretch, trading the lead and racing side by side right down to the finish line where Nick Phillips barely edged out O'Peake for the win.

There were 5 caution flags that knocked out some of the day's strong cars such as Chris Snow, Rip Lickingood, Rob Nielsen and Ace Idol and badly damaged plenty of others.

cmp · 02-15-2012, 02:07 PM

Coffee Warlord · 02-15-2012, 02:07 PM

Ooh, a colossal failure.

MacroGuru · 02-15-2012, 03:02 PM

ToPaw Racing knocked out of the Michigan race...not good...

britrock88 · 02-15-2012, 05:30 PM

Helen gets some time in the lead, a Top 10 finish, and is back in the Chase as it stands.

Rip's 5th-place qualification is squandered as he wrecks out of Michigan. Still 50 points below any driver in the series, and up to 3 DNFs in 6 races.

BYU 14 · 02-15-2012, 05:58 PM

Damn both of us with a DNF, that sucks, especially after a decent starting spot.

PilotMan · 02-15-2012, 06:05 PM

Michigan was not a speedway that we were going to be good at. We finished though!

So we are 13th and 17th in the race.

Certainly still in the hunt, but we need some strong showings sooner or later.

Go Dixieland!

DanGarion · 02-15-2012, 06:11 PM

Wow the father son team of Schoonover's actually were top 5.

CrimsonFox · 02-15-2012, 06:30 PM

ooooo a top 10! I don't think my cars are good enough to get top 3 tho.
