i think some of these crate drivers need to step up . i know its expensive but this is a learning class . you only have 7 or8 super lates pull the chips out and see what shes got!!!!! look if u finish last u still will get paid more than u would in a crate race. joe warren joe tracey brad trice and all you front runners mow some lawns sell some d*pe whatever step up .and hobby bobby step back your man is holding up the field .not trying to make anyone mad its just my opinion thanks and sse u saturday

Brad Trice does not have a big block, That was not his motor he was running in Florida. However he does have a new Troyer and if someone would step to the plate , I'm sure he'd be glad to run big block. Surprised you didn't know that!

haha, because it is just that easy.... i tell you what, you provide the motor, shocks, the oiling system, and a few really reliable guys, and we'll use my car and tires. how's that sound? I would surely love to step up, but it is far more complicated than registering at a different window
ps- it's not just a learning class, it is a cost conscious class, too. oh, and it doesn't pay more to finish last in supers and big blocks then winning in crates and I don't race to finish last! I wish it was cheaper!

have to agree with that you are saying joe racin its not a matter of just dropping a super late model motor in your car supers and crates are actually a lot different. and if anyone is racing for money rather than to win then they really shouldnt even be racing at all

how are they a lot different besides what joe said? shocks, motor,dry sump
obviously those things add up to a very different $ amount and that is what joe was saying if it was that easy to do then it would be done already but how are the cars that different?

Are you even serious. Everyone out there would love to have the money to drop a 430 in and go race. Crate Lates are really not an entry level class. I would consider hobby stocks and strictly stocks entry level classes but DIS does not run these. Even then some guys may run them forever. It's not about talent but what you can afford to do within your budget. Whats the point of trying to run a class you can't afford to be competitve in?

as anyone serious talking about crates? what about the Modified Lights? same guy wins all the races - and championships. has been in the class for years- and wins because his daddy spends more$$$ then anyone else and has a billboard and sponsors a night. tell that kid and his daddy to step up and see what he's got or stay in an entry level class the no one watches because $$ will take him to the front.

Al White knows what he has done to that class. It is true that money does own that class. That's one reason I left that class. It is the most dominated class at del mar and needs a change. Move up Steve!

I actually enjoyed watching the modlites feature until Steve came back. Don't get me wrong, I have no issue with his father, mans just makin some money but Steve and his "im the sh*t" attitude were certainly not missed. It would be like Ricky running and winning the supers every week, it would get old quick. Steve has the best equiptment out there and we all know its a money race. I dont think Steve has it in him to move up, especially since I doubt daddy would foot the bill like he does now.

seems like a lot of people are missing the point about it being so easy to move up. it is not just your initial cost but also everything that goes along with it tires,wheels,shocks, motors,fuel so on and so on. also everyone has a different goal in racing. some people are out there strictly for the fun of it and to do it as a hobby.some people are perfectly happy running what they are running. 99% of the people in our area have normal jobs they go and work. there whole life is not just to work on and drive a race car. they have families & etc to think about. so if someone can race a class where they are comfortable in and still put food on the table and pay there bills with no problem then what is wrong with that. it is easy for someone to sit in the bleachers and voice there opinon on what people should do. like joe said if you are going to foot the bill then great everyone will move up and you will have 50 supers or 50 big blocks there saturday but it is just not that easy. also the people who are getting on here saying this person or that person should move up is not the one footing the bill for there racing.
I am sure a lot of the people who race if they could would do it for aliving without a doubt. but that oppurtunity is far and inbetween.a lot people are in the crate class as a stepping stone to move up into bigger cars but if you think someone just grabs a old twisted up frame buys a motor from dis and goes racing you are sadly mistaken. there are tons of things you can spend your money on to a make a car better.
as far as people in modlites they have a biz. a modlite biz. not building super frames or bb cars or anything like that. also you do not know how they structure there biz or what they spend. and also if one person is good then they "usually" also go to other tracks and do well. if they choose to run a certain track then that is up to them. if you want all the people who win after a certain amount of races to leave or move up then you will start losing people every year in classes.a lot of people do not understand what these guys are spending to get in the gate and on the cars and what they race for. for what you spend at dis for example for fuel,car etc you get peanuts in return. but if people choose to support the track and run every week there for that amount and put on a show for the fans then so be it. without fans there isnt any racing. but also you can not let people who are fans or benchracers tell you when and when not to move up because there seems to be a lot of that going around. a lot of people are fans because they just love the sport but also once again I bet almost every single person out there could afford to go race then they would instead of watching in the bleachers. say what you want about my opinon but until you start putting money into these guys cars (and i do not mean buying a ticket to get into a race) then you cant tell them what they should or should not do.

just to let u know i help work on a latemodel . i was just trying to make a point. i know what it costto run a super late. so if i pizzed anyone off i apologize...i would be in a cratemodel if i could afford it but i cant ,i have a family to support. so heres what i git to say all u fans that sit in the bleachers and drink beer and smoke whatever ,after the races walk back in the pits and see the driver u like and give him 5 or ten dollars to help for fuel cost or do what i do try to help work on the car 1or2 nights a week ,,any race team could probably take any extra help even if its just sweeping the floor so take that for my opinion this one goes out to the fans.remember its just my opinion. see u saturday

LOL im a bum. And bring out a caution every race and run last. I think thats pretty funny. Especially since we ran 10th at dis last time we were there and had no rear brakes lol.its easy to race from a keyboard isnt it. I was making a point and then you want to come on and act like white trash. Didnt see that one coming lol. And your numbers are off so you havent bought tires or gas in a while from what I can see. You want me to give you my money so YOU can race. So when all the dust settles your still going to be what you are now. A benchracer and thats fine, people need you to stir thing's up and get people going. Keeps things exicting, so sir I applaud you for that. Being 33 and a professional keyboard jockey/benchracer is something to be very proud of . To each there own and everyone is welcome to there opinon. Oh and btw its not very hard to rattle off some numbers all you have to do is look online to see what things are going for. But since you are good with numbers .Call me @ 410-251-1138 because I am trying to get the 4,000 to make a car race ready package, DIS motor and a trans, carb,water pump,fuel pump,rad,dis shocks and since its just that simple call me up and I will buy it today. My last and final question for you is what number is your car? But in all honesty, I think it is good there are people like you. ;D

"highside" i agree with "tommy" u have nothin to do with the 77 team so there for u should have not said ur car is the 77 i agree that the drivers have enough crap to deal wit they dont need the crap off of this site to deal with to.The facts are that the guys that can afford to run super lates and BB Mods. do and the guys that cant and want to race and have a little extra $$ run the crate classes and yes some guys use it for a learning class and then move up but not all can.i give credit to every racer that shows up EVERY saturday week in and week out to give the fans a good show because i have been around racin and see how much time these guys dedicate to this sport it is a second job.So here's to all you racers keep up the good work and HOLLA WHOOP WHOOP

Not at all! You have proven NOTHING! You just told me stuff that almost EVERYONE knows! That car has only been on track for a year and yes Chris did a great job but you dont need to get on here and say that YOUR car number is 77 cuz No one on that team wants you to put there name on nothing! So step!
