I have been going to Barrie speedway since the day it opened and I have never seen anyone drive a race car like Mr. Walt. I have never been a fan of Ricks but I am now. My hat goes off to you Rick you are the man. Too bad the officials at the speedway were not watching the same race everyone else was. One might say you got the shit end of the stick, not once but twice. Good luck to you Rick and thanks for some of the best driving I have ever seen. Paul Goerk aka ZERO
I would agree that Rick is a great wheelman.. It doesn't matter Late Model, Thunder, or 4 banger he's raced it and won with it!! That said, that Thunder Car feature was ugly with a capital U.. They lost me after 4 cautions in the first 7 laps.. ;).. Gonna be a bit tougher to write up a race report for that mess!! And not to steal your thunder ZERO but figured this would be a good place to post a few results for the time being.
