What kind of bets are you looking for? I'll take the field against them for $100.

What's Scotty driving? How fast? Brand? Engine?
That would be a good promo for someone to do on all these guys.
It matters, I think.
I'll look into it / I'll ask around. I'll probably take that bet.

1320racerany of the 24 can win this, We can't say that about the team mates yet until we know who they are but I expect they too will be capable of winning this race.
So while everyone will have their pick, it's foolish to state anyone is a shoo in to win this race.

Mike RietowWho's chassis, Who's transmission, Who's engine, Who tires, Who's converter, Who's cylinder heads, Who's shocks, Who's carb etc etc etc.
It matters, I think.
That would be a cool promo for this race, different.
What kind of bat is he bringing to the plate.
What kind of clubs is he choosing.

It doesn't. Everyone of these driver's has the equipment and skills to get the W and as Steve Sisko showed the bracket racing world when he won 1.1 million, he/the elite drivers can compensate when their car is less than deadly as Bertozzi's shoebox Nova was that day. IIRC, Steve said in one of the interviews, the car was shyt that day.

The choose of clubs is interesting for onlookers.
Whether it matters is opinion.
If anyone could win consistently with junk, they'd buy one entry and never work on their junk.
The opposite is Reality / True.
It matters

1320racerNot anyone, Steve Sisko and I didn't say junk, Bertozzi don't own junk.
January 19, 2023, 02:23 PM
Mike RietowIf it didn't matter, Sisko would have never mentioned the car was junk.
Junk meaning - ill tuned
It matters
What's the horses record.
What clubs is he choosing.
What bat is he bringing to the plate.
What is Scotty driving? It matters.
January 19, 2023, 02:27 PM
1320racerit was not a tune issue and it obviously didn't effect Steve's ability to out drive all others. He was schooled by arguably the best that ever did this according to many.

Mike RietowWith all these track apps, all you need is a car number to figure out the horse's record.
What bat is Scotty bringing to the plate?
It matters
January 19, 2023, 03:14 PM
Mike RietowSomeone said Scotty sold his cars, curious what bat he's bringing to the plate.
I know of a good horse, runs 4.60's 4.70's
New engine, transmission, ring & pinion
Ray Miller car
Guy that owns it runs Richardson wheels on his 1940 Ford, proudly.

Al AlguireCongrats to you Kyle and Ed. I was working on new wheelie bars last night listening to the podcast when they named Kyle best appearing driver
Been a hack of a year for him. Best of luck to you guys this year and at the Allstar race. Now get an invite to that other Allstar race this year

1320racerThank you. Got the invite and got the trailer decal to that other ALLSTAR race in 2019. Not likely to happen this year or next being we don’t plan to compete at all the division races this season.

Al AlguireThats awesome, didn't realize that. The one thing I didnt mange to do. Came close three times but never ran all the races either, family first. Would like to have had that chance though.

He's bringing the King in a digger and I'm thinking Scotty still has a S-10, and maybe the Chevy II?
From what I saw, most all those cars that "sold" were cash optioned out.
