As far AS XXXXX or whomever he is this week, I hate you.

I am glad. That makes my day complete. Make it a point to tell me that every morning.

I will be here all year long writing great reviews on all the ACT EVENTS all year long

Please don't make promises you can not keep. To write a great review would require someone with a great mind. You are not equipped to do that. All you will be able to write are narrow reviews.

     Happy Day

John Henry and Crowbar are some of the MOST negative people on OG... and I have had enough.  This is coming to an end.  I will stop their negative behavoir.  It is bringing OG to its knee's as many people are not posting on here anymore.  I haven't seen many people from Airborne posting on here lately... The fans that normally post aren't, WHY?  Cause of fools like this.  I am going to be so positive and nice on here, that it will force JH and Crowbar to go somewhere else to fling their crap.  Just wait and see...

While you can not get the exact same time as electronic timing and scoring, you can get fairly close and you would be able to see if a time was way off. For the record you would be suprised how close a stop watch can get you.

You do relize TCF or whatever name you are going by now, that I wa defending Toms integrity thru the 5 seasons I was at the milk bow? Why you would attack me over that I do not understand.

Rob I beg to differ with you. I have first hand tried to clock time trials with you and you struggle to push the buttons on time.........HAHAHAHA

That makes perfect sense since no one else in the pits or in the stands can time the cars and point out if the times Curley gets are wrong! 



Who knows this gentleman could be correct.......maybe everyone is as petrified to say something negative to Tom like you!

Actually I don't believe John Wayne ever played a guy named John Henry.

He did however play a guy named John Thomas with a middle name of Henry.
It was Col John Henry Thomas.

Willie Nelson Played a character  Named John Henry in a movies called Once Upon a Texas Train.

Your right but the only time that that he was called by his last name was when he introducing himself to the rebel colonel. Other than that one time he went by John Henry!

From the PASS site. Will this cost the teams some money?

"TRANSPONDER REMINDER!
All teams that do not have their own transponders must contact Scott Reed at 207-625-3230. PASS is discontinuing the type of transponder used and will
require teams to have their own."

PASS does not draw the same numbers of cars from the local tracks that ACT does.  So, potentially, you're not worrying about a lot of other cars coming into the series other than the ones that follow your own series, unlike ACT.  On top of that, PASS has been using transponders/electronic scoring for a few years now, so I assume most of the teams have purchased one of their own, especially the top teams that do travel some down south and to other Super Late Model events. 

I'm going to guess here (and as any guess, it could be horribly wrong) that PASS has polled the teams and determined that their inventory of transponders is useless.  And when you're not drawing outside cars to your series, you don't have to support them.  Plus, with a lot of tracks already having implemented electronic scoring (PASS big one is Beech Ridge), there may be simply no use to carry those transponders.
