Ok now my turn!!! First off congrats to Billy Melenhorst. 14 years old and Barrie's youngest track champion says alot of his talents. And Desi has nothing to be ashamed of either, she ran hard and clean all season long and 2nd is really good after an 8th or 9th last year in the standings!! She is definitely vastly improved and thats what its all about in the Charger class( well that and fun) I know it must be heartbreaking to lead most of the year and not come home with the prize in the end. That shouldnt take away from all you accomplished this year though hunni!! But she's young, and still got some learning and maturing to do so cut her some slack people. Now if she was being unsportman/woman like and didnt congradulate Billy and such, thats a bit of a different animal!!! In any point race that is that close you'd be crazy not to want the car that finished ahead of you to be checked out!!! Sounds logical enough to me?? A certain official told me himself that these cars (Charger division) havent really been weighed/checked out throughly much this year at all, so it maybe considered by some as grasping at straws/bad sportmanship if you will, theres nothing wrong with her wanting Billy's car checked either. Once again good season Billy and was really nice meeting you, Ben and your Mom and Dad this season. All quality folks in my mind. Enjoy the harsh Stayner winter, and hope to see you all at the banquet whenever that might be slated for.
;D ;D ;D+1 You have a Way''with words Dave Thanks man!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
The bottom line is Desi came on a message board and "called her shot " with out even knowing Barrie already had its first female champ just to make it look a little bit worst . Desi crying while Billy's car was being tore down was way over the top IMO .
Those that complain about others cars being too fast after the season is done would be better off making their cars quicker for next year.
Billy Melonhorst = 2008 Barrie Charger Champion
Desi Walt = First Loser
Scooter I understand what you are saying..I had respect for desi walt for about 90% of the season..until a few weeks ago when she told my brother she would wreck him for the championship....did you know that? does that deserve respect?

Was right there when she said it, she even told me a couple weeks before telling him. i had respect for her until that.
and then he gets 6 points ahead of her, and she crys. i dont think she handles losing well.
and the only congrats she gave him was putting up a potision...hmmmm....
she may get reconized by NASCAR but everyone knows who the Champion really is and thats Billy Melenhorst 😀
She lost when she came on CRO and bragged about being the first woman to win a championship and how confident she was and not cocky.... blah blah blah. Hopefully she learnt something from this??? Maybe next year she will wait to the end of the year before counting her chickens before they hatch. Did you see her tripping over her pouting lip yesterday??? They really didn't put up the cash for a teardown after the race did they??? Now that would of been a brutal display of sportsmanship if she ended up winning the championship that way!
