congrates lonnie...you kick there butts again....even last night from dead last...then again tonight...now they need to keep upping the bounty...if you win all by end of season you get the bounty money....good job man

Could not get to the race ,just got out of hospital,so I know there must have been someone else in the race ,who were the next 4,or was LJ the only car.Also top 5 in factory stocks.Thanks

i dont know..who finished what..i wasnt at the race...but my buddy that works there called me and told me lonnie won

Thanks Nate, the car has been hooked up the last couple nights. A lot of close racing these last two nights. Glad everyone is running so clean, Thanks again guys!

I think for the lead sleds, Ricky Plamondon was 2nd, Jimmy Stratton was in the top 5 somewhere, Lampson pulled off, Stearns went to the rear, Rollover Rex went to the rear. Not quite sure about the rest of the top 5.

Lonnie is doing a great job in that car. At some points in the race I didn't know if he would be able to get up to the front, but he shows great patience while everyone in front of him is 3 wide. But as soon as those cars get in line, the kid is just a bullet.

For the Factory Stocks, Timmy Near won, Jim Miller Jr. was 2nd, and I know Adam Rowe and Joe Ward had a great battle for 3rd, not sure who got it.

LONNIE nice article in the flint journal keep it going congrats

got cheat to win

Didn't we already go through all of this fast13? Read the 6,532 pages about people thinking that Lonnie is cheating, and somehow manages to make it through tech every week. If he is cheating, why hasn't he been caught? Use your head.

I take it this is someone i Beat everytime we race, o well when your fast there's always haters!!!

You gotta love it when people are haten ya cause that means your doin it right. Gotta tell ya I watched ya qualify saturday and seen how you just let that thing roll through the corner like nobodys business, totally awsome you believe in that car like that.You and your ride are bad$$ and they will keep haten so keep lovin it. Maybe someday I will find the right combo for Chris and he will believe in his too and be able to do the same. I've always told ya corner speed is where it;s at and you surely found it. Kool Kool Kool.

well in stead of haten....why not watch the kid and learn....thats what i do...hell he beats me every week...but you dont hear me crying....it is getting quite enoying...the kid passes tech everyweek...what more does he have to do..they tore him done relentlessly...and he still passes...give it up

That car turns like a beast. When your getting on the gas quick you pass. I want that bounty wish we were running Friday.

Cheater cheater pumpkin eater !!!!!!

We are running Friday Chad!!

Well than do you have an xtra LF tire. lol I dont want to dismount my 8" wheels. You know what I think I got one Ill be out tonight for you to mount it if you dont mind. Oh wait thats left sides I got i do need some rights. I know someone who has or had a couple might need to go see him.

His car is real fast commin out of turn 2, i watch him pull most people a whole car or two on the way out of it. Not sure how he does it but he is sure fast. But like they say if you can pick up the throttle sooner it will take alot of motor to catch back up, and then it will be harder commin into the next corner cause of your speed entering. good job Lonnie

Congrats to Lonnie also.I know it wasnt Jimmy Stratton saying that. Im his dad and he told me hes driven Lonnies car And the handlin on Lonnies car is awesum. It almost drives itself through the corners.I know Jimmys car is close but its a new car this year and hes hasnt quite got it hooked up yet.When he does you will see some great racing.Its already exciting.I missed last weekend because of a heart test I had to have done.So thats the end of this subject of cheating !!!!!

IF more people would worry about making their cars faster instead of accusing people of cheating theyd be better off let the tech guys worry about that the kids having a awesome year give him credit he passes tech every week so why dont you leave it be and worry about your own car instead of what everyone else is doing

Good job Lonnie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If could watch Lonnie from the stands, it is obvious that he is a rocket in the corners. I watch him Friday night, and he drove a clean race, waiting for the right opprotunity to pass when he needed to. He almost lost it to Jimmy. Jimmy just got held up a little, otherwise if Jimmy would of got the lead, he would of been very hard to pass.

When was the last time a bounty was set for a Lead Sled Driver??????????????????????

As you can see, somebody has been doing there homework, and Lonnie is such a good example for the sport.

timmy near was the last bount....no i think lampson had one too last year

No Chad has never had one at Auto City.

I don't recall Timmy ever having a bounty either.

I DO NOT BELIEVE TIMMY HAD A "BOUNTY" ON HIM...


WHAT WAS OFFERED WAS CASH THAT WAS COLLECTED FOR HIM TO START DEAD LAST AND WIN THE RACE....


WHICH HE DID DO...IT WAS JUST UNREAL TO WATCH!

i know dawn i have the video of timmy doing that it was cool

I could of sworn that I seen Timmy running a sled at Auto City practice tonight! Maybe the money is bringing out some bigger dawgs. This will be a 6 beer show!!!!!!!!!!!


Greg

Thats not a rumor......Its a fact. You know your dealing with him tomorrow.

I was wondering where the hell my car went LOL He is going to try and run both nights if the motor holds up. We broke it at practice today. She broke a push rod and kicked out a lifter. It should be ok. I want to thank Timmy and friends for helping me get it ready for tomorrow. Good group of guys. The M1 will be transformed into the 71 this weekend. Go easy on him guys LOL she's just a little 355

Joe

sounds like that motor is defintly ready for a freshing up this winter! she is getting tired,lol

You are right for sure Mike. It was another rocker stud???
As much fun as it would be to get some "I think my diapers are full" started about Timmy going for the bounty, thats not really the deal. Timmy's main focus is the FS championship, he isn't far out of the lead. We had already talked about him driving it a month ago. He is just doing it for some fun and helping me at the same time. Not sure it's enough car to beat LJ. I am sure he will give it hell. Someone better keep me posted at work

Joe

well tim is a hell of a driver and he will take care of your car joe...he will give lonnie a race....we are all gonna try to give him a race....that kid has his stuff hooked up right thats for sure

Looked like he lost his hook-up last night,rofl

Well, obviously, so did you. You spun out 3 times. ROFL.......and whined to keep your spot. Wait, that parts not funny, just normal for you and AC.

Now thats funny. Never pulled to the flagman to wine,Maybe in the past not then.

Well, please explain to me , and correct me if I am wrong, but I was just told a few weeks ago, it was spinee and spiner BOTH go the rear, now that rule has been changed? Hmmmmm, or does it depend on the night, the race ,or the driver if that rule applies? Why not make ONE rule and stick to it. But wait, once again, we are talking about Auto City here.

read the other page... Lonnie tapped out and I personally thanked him for that before all the drama went down. Get your facts first buddy.

I just now seen that, and yes, that was extremely nice of Lonnie, But you still didn't answer my question about the spinner rule, but maybe you don't know the answer either. That is the type of driver Lonnie is. We have watched him race for a while now and he races clean. But whatever, I personally think there were a ton of bad calls Saturday night, and once again too many chiefs barking orders, but for the last and final time, THAT'S AUTO CITY.

And thanks for doing the same for me all those times you took me out at the beggining of the year. I guess i will remember that if this situation comes up again.

anybody who spins out three times in a race should not be considered a winner...and if i remember right the three guys who "spun"lol you out all tapped out and went to the back..the bounty should live on because lonnie didnt finish the race..

You mean got spun-out. Big purses make people try harder than normal.

well I know I did not spin him out. he came down on me. but like you said Big purses.

Yea Duane it was 3 wide racing at the time and if anyone knows how it is you do. You showed what a true sportsman you are and these younger guys will see that and learn from it, We all hope.

In regards to the Spinner Spinnee rule, 2 weeks ago when I raced at Auto City they had said in the drivers meeting that the half-mile races will be the spinner spinnee rule, and that the quarter-mile races will be judgement calls by the track.

Sportsmanship? I didnt have any when i tapped out now did I Mike?

You tapped out after the fact you knew you were going to not finish the race. Everyone seen it, move on it's over.

I thought that was very sportman like. He could have not tapped and you both would have went to the rear. Im sure LJ would rather have seen Chris win that money more than anyone else, just upset about how it happend. Thats racin'! Now cant we all get back to the ...nevermind we AC folks just like brawlin'!

Seems that way racing is suppose to be fun some people act like their running for the cup people just need to worry about their own cars and stop the finger pointing LOL cant we all just get along some just take it to serious

it was fun racing until the bounty money came up and we had to work on the m-15 car to make it faster so he has a chance to win..and he had that chance until somebody decided to run lonnie dirty and take the win..it seems like lonnie can make it all the way through the field until he gets to a driver who cant accept that he has been beat..maybe it will be more fun now that the bounty is over

I try to do the right thing sometimes

Gota give you a hats off for this season Duane. You have always ran me clean and i believe most feel the same way.
You also have came a long way on your temper, could you teach me LOL Gona miss racing with ya but not going to stop hanging with ya. Thanks for the help!

Joe

Thank you!
