Thread: A Modest Proposal

    A Modest Proposal

    CMC points half way through the season:
    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...=0&output=html

    Dan 1163
    Proctor 1162

    The #82 car is beating Mr. Proctor by a full point (.08%) after 3 races. The Red Shift Racing Team would like to give James the opportunity to immediately concede the championship in the CMC Texas Series. We hope you accept our gracious offer before the green flag at Hallett.

    That seems fair. Since I'm sitting in third at the moment, I'll even expand that offer to say that I won't challenge James for second place if we can just go ahead and lock the top three spots down right meow.

    Hey Dan... I probably should, especially since it seems just a matter of time anyway....but you know I am not giving up that easy.

    James;
    In retrospect, it appears your decision to not concede was probably the right choice.
    We will talk again after Eagles.

    Sounds like a good plan.

    BTW... you need to go win nationals.

    James;

    It appears that you made the right decision to not concede defeat after the 3rd weekend. In spite of the fact I bought more tires, had more practice time, better brakes and a (much) cooler spoiler, you still kicked my ass. At least I gave you some heart burn, right down to the last weekend.

    I keep reading stories about how the old days of CMC were better, and I have no prospective on that. But I LIKE the series and the guys I race with. I've gotten advice and mooched parts from almost every racer I've met. They all give generously without hesitation.

    We started this year 2 seconds off the pole and finished 2nd in Texas. I love this country!

    To quote Craig Wiseman (who wanted to win worse than I) "I'm good with being beat by a gentleman racer. "
