First, let’s start by saying WHY BE SO darn NEGATIVE? Everyone knows as a promoter (which I am not) you can not please everyone. We have complained for a few years now about all of the bagging. Now DI tries to do Something about it, and they are still wrong. What is wrong with you people? You Wonder why people are so negative! JMO it is people that –itch, moan and complain all of the time or have nothing nice or helpful to say. If you would take half of you’re time And do something productive (i.e.) actually do something to help this sport. Then maybe Just maybe you would find out that life is what you make it. You want drama go some Where else. Jafo and 767 my questions to both of you 1. How many $26,000.00 to $30,000.00 shows do you promote? 2. How much money did you or did you not win at this show? Maddog 1. Really? Sounds to me like you are just jealous. bbr55 1. Writing on the wall. Please fill me in on this because I have missed it. How many other shows have the following that DI has? Terrible payouts. How many other $10,000.00 to win shows are there (I am sure there are some.) Car count Not sure about this one either MM is always full. 86 cars in Arkansas with $3.85 a gallon gas. 26 or 27 from Illinois 26 or 27 from Missouri. SE will be full Please in lighting me. I love this sport just not all of the drama. I don't promote nor do I run. Hence the name Just Another Frickin Observer. Try it sometime. You might be surprised what you see, instead of just believing everything you are told.

Why put a rule on paper if it's not a rule. Least that cud be done is reword the rule. So guys that have never ran to these rule now there options better. The most commen reason that 03 frames are not ran is because the body's are not usually with the frame.

Wow after just finding out about this site today and reading all this sh!t i would like to clear up something....EPR DID NOT GET 4000 AND A TRIP TO THE FEATURE, ALL EIGHT OF US WERE PAID 500 AND THAT DIDNT PAY FOR DAVID LOVEDAY'S BROKEN JAW AND BIT THRU LIP....OR JOSH'S BROKEN NOSE... NOT TO MENTION THRASHING EIGHT CARS AND ALL THE BROKEN EQUIPMENT IN LESS THAN FIVE MIN... If there are eight guys on here that think they can hang, have the balls, or think any of us had it easy i bet i can get a 4 on 4 with either team or an 8 on 8 set up... heck i think i speak for Team 34 and EPR when i say we would love to do it so lets get it.......put your a$$ where your mouths are boys we are waiting...

I find it funny how everybody wants me to drive crazy, but when we figure out how to make our cars hold up, everybody cries. We spend alot of time and money figuring out new ideas and ways to make things hold up to our horsepower. Dont be a hater because i spend all my spare time working on cars. Everybody has the same opportunity to build the same caliber of cars, but not everyone has the desire to do it. Being lazy is not an excuse to cry because my car is harder than yours.
example.... "Dave, its not fair that adam called and asked if he could switch bodies on an 03 even tho i could have done the exact same thing!"
Everybody work with me here...... Whats rule #1 for derbyicons?
ANY QUESTIONS CALL DAVE FIRST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PAIN INC would like to call out any 8 guys that are crazy enough to derby team 34 /EPR combined. If you beat us you will be famous real quick.
Who wants to man up? If you got a problem with how poop gets run heres your chance! We will build cars will you?

Still makes no sense to have the rule if it doesn't mean what it says take the rule out or clearify Is all that I'm saying. Hard cars or not. Adam. U have to look at it from the guys stand point. That has never ran a big show like that. That built exatly to the rules in fear of having to cut alot or not being able to run at all

That built exatly to the rules in fear of having to cut alot or not being able to run at all Randy adam understands that but everyone else must understand also that those cars were not built to leave that grudge match.... heck as far as they knew we beat them the last time and could again as fast as they beat us... No-one is dumb here and we all know why they wanted 2 door bodies on 03-ups but it is the same reason we had two 74 cadies last year... for the advantage and at the end of the day (correct me if i am wrong) the top three were 98-02's and fourth was a 91 so what is the big deal???

It's not a big deal because they didn't finish. I'm not tryn to blow this up because it's EPR. It just doesn't make since to have this rule there is a huge diff in a 03up build if done wright and a typical ford. As everyone sees. And that rule seriously handicaps being able to build 03s. Unless you call. Witch is dumb. IMO I dnt no if y'all were calling us out indirectly i was just trying to make sense of the rule. I dnt no any of the EPR members my problem isnt with EPR as a team. It's the rule.

I have been in grudge matches. They seam to be a cake walk. From the outside lookin in. But nothin usually comes out of a grudge match that's worth running again. Cuss they are on the floor until there over u can't run a grudge match and expect to win it and the feature the same nite that wud be crazy.
