I would just like to thank David Miller for wrecking me. I was starting to think he knew how to drive there for awhile. Anyway, thanks again. Now we can stay busy the next 2 weeks fixing it but without his dumping us into the turn 1 wall we would have been so bored...

And I guess if it were an accident you would have come over and apologized to me but you left in such a hurry we never got a chance to catch up. Too bad. Hopefully you can make it back to the last race and we can catch up then.

Also, to the DCS officials; Nice call on the #18 sending him to the back for throwing dirt on the track. WOW! What happend to the 'all-involved' rule? He didn't get to the infield without a little help ya know? Makes zero sense to me and I guess an apology was made but that is a little late wouldn't you say? You guys have radios...use them and make the correct calls on the track especially when it involves the top two cars in the race! #18 was robbed of a chance at that race and you gave it to the car with the illegal spoiler. Oh that's right. It was his 'grace' race even though he has raced this year already. Hmm...I know, it was his first race in THAT car this year. But when I asked if I could race the #18 for the first time this year and have Hoosier tires as my 'grace' race, I was told 'no'. Interesting indeed.

Just so you know when 18 went to the dirt he went lose on his own almost chopping the back of the car in front of him there was no other visible contributing contact that caused 18 to go into the infield. As for what he was sent to the back for, was not because of the dirt on the track, he was in the infield to long as well as other cars that went into the infield AFTER the 18 kicked up all the dirt and dust causing them to not be able to see thus bringing out the initial caution. Had the 18 gotten back out onto the track immediatley and all other cars stayed in motion that would not have drawn the yellow. It would have come out afterwards for "debris" on the track and more than likely no one would have received penalties for that since that type of caution happens often.

 

FROM THE NEWS REVIEW:shock:

Albany driver prevails in two featured races


LOCAL RACING
BZ ZELLER
On a night where nearly every point champion was crowned, Alan Cress stole the show by capturing both the featured races Saturday at the Douglas County Speedway.

Cress, formerly of Coquille and now Albany, started from the back of both the American Speed Association Premier Division Mains after qualifying with the two fastest laps in the 19-car Late Model/Modified field.

In the first feature, Cress drove the No. 91 Ford from the rear to the second position prior to a caution flag on Lap 11 of the 25-Lap event. But when the field returned to green, Cress’ car easily surged to the lead and cruised to a comfortable victory. For Cress, it was his first time behind the wheel of the No. 91, normally driven by Dane Nissen.

“The car was prepared well and the crew really had it set up well,” Cress said. “The track cooled off well for me and I think the other guys were slip’n tires.”

Cress further credited his crew for making quick adjustments following a mishap early in the program.

“Our right front shock and the upper A-arm got bent up,” Cress said. “The crew and my dad ripped it off and got me going right.”

In the finale, Cress made quick work of the field and pulled to the back bumper of race leader Harlan Koens on Lap 6. As Koens tried to exit Turn 2 on Lap 14, Cress nudged the leader, which sent Koens partially into the infield dirt and enabled Cress to advance to the lead. A subsequent caution delayed the race to clean up debris from the incident and Koens was sent to the back for the restart.

“I drove too deep and slid into him (Koe ns), Cress said. “ I hate racing that way, but it happened. It was a mistake. Harlan is one of the nicest guys in racing.”

WOW> Good thing your post was deleted rlc4523 cause you are making DCS look terrible with those kinds of comments. I know nobody read what you said but that was rude and uncalled for. Saying that the 'Pepsi' cars #18 &#28 can do no wrong...please give me a break. How is being taken out into the turn 1 wall, 'doing no wrong' ? How is being hit by Cress and thus put into the dirt 'soing no wrong'?

Wade I want to start by saying sorry you got tore up no one likes to tear up their car. I think you might have a different opinnion of why you are tore up if you watched the video from Miller's roof mount cam. He had postion on you! So either your spotter dropped the ball or you did. No fault of Dave's! He was racing as all of you were,and sometimes **** happens! As far as him knowing how to drive I think he knows and I think your pissed because he showed up and you know he is fast and he races hard. Go run NORCAL with him sometime and see what happens!

Now as far as Alan and his grace race it was his first time in a car new to him that had come from out of the area,so I think he deserved it. Alan works hard at running a clean race.  Why don't we mention the unsportsman like conduct of #18 your dad after the whole incident when he tried to take Alan out!  As far as the officials I think the only thing they did wrong was not black flag #18 when he tapped #91 during yellow laps!!! I understand tempers flare because I have one hell of one myself but if #18 HAD A PROBLEM TAKE IT UP WITH OFFICIALS!!! NOT TRY TO CAUSE MORE CARNAGE!!!!  I guess what I am trying to get at is there are always two sides to every story!!! So before we start throwing stones maybe we should stop and think back through things a bit more! Overall the DCS Officials run a pretty good show,no one is perfect,but all in all they try much harder than other tracks I have been around.

I dont understand how a camera on his car showing him turning LEFT into my right side door is me dropping the ball. Nice try though. I'll stick with what I said. He either did it intentionally or he needs glasses or driving lessons.
 Go run NORCAL with him sometime and see what happens! What is NORCAL? I assume you mean NSCS. What makes you think I have not ran NSCS? And from what I've seen Miller is typically involved in a wreck. So I dont need to see what would happen, I already know. Why does he drive cleaner in NSCS races?

Now as far as Alan and his grace race it was his first time in a car new to him that had come from out of the area,so I think he deserved it. Deserve to have an advantage? Why? Plus the rule is for ONE 'grace race' not TWO!!!!! WE did have two races remember? I like Alan so I didnt go too far with this but I am seeing some rules bent for others and that is not a fair thing to do especially to the drivers that show for 14 weeks. The idea is to keep the racecar fair and as equal as possible right?
Alan works hard at running a clean race.  I agree. I also noticed you didnt mention Miller in this sentence. :shock:

“I drove too deep and slid into him (Koe ns), Cress said. “ I hate racing that way, but it happened. It was a mistake. Harlan is one of the nicest guys in racing.”

Sounds like the officials made a mistake there, which won't be the first or last time I'm sure.  You might even think that a driver would have the sportsmanship and integrity to go to the back on his own if he caused the caution, but maybe sometime previous he was on the wrong end of a bad call and thought this would balance things out... 'who knows'?  Even the deal with Wade has two sides where Dave says his in-car video shows Wade moving up into his groove... again, "who knows" since I didn't see it and even if I did it might look entirely different from the pits.  I know that cars do change positions at times faster than I can say so on the 2-way radio to the driver, almost every race.  Dale getting stuffed into the wall by the green Modified had the interresting perspective of Dale being told he "shouldn't have been out there"... pretty bizarre since he had been there for a whole lap already!  Again, a different opinion from a different perspective.  I couldn't see that one either, but Dale did 'take back' his previous vote to race Late Models with Modifieds again next year.  He had a pretty good chance of coming out on top of the Gibbs deal until that happened but has a totally different opinion of racing with Modifieds now.  It's the highs and lows that makes racing so much fun, though!  And I hope the girl who is heartbroken when drivers bad mouth each other learns to deal with it... most racing isn't just all FUN.  It's a great character building experience with many different emotions and experiences involved.  This really is a better place to say something too, rather than right after a race when everyone is still 'hot'.  It gives the opportunity to edit and say what you really think, NOT what you feel which is sometimes just anger and frustration right after an incident.  Quite often nice people (like Jim Smith) have some really well intended GOOD constructive criticism too, which if taken to heart can be a real benefit to the person it's given to.  Unfortunately I just get mad, don't admit it and then get even... if I don't forget first (NOW)!  Old age sucks!  ;)

I went off info from his pit crew Wade and what they watched on video. I have known most of them a long time so believe what they say to be true. Go run NORCAL with him sometime and see what happens! What is NORCAL? I assume you mean NSCS. What makes you think I have not ran NSCS? And from what I've seen Miller is typically involved in a wreck. So I dont need to see what would happen, I already know. Why does he drive cleaner in NSCS races?NSCS is what i meant,that series has changed names so many times over the years.  Got a couple of hats with the different names on it. 

Now as far as Alan and his grace race it was his first time in a car new to him that had come from out of the area,so I think he deserved it. Deserve to have an advantage? Why? Plus the rule is for ONE 'grace race' not TWO!!!!! WE did have two races remember?

Yes we did have a double main because they chose to split it,but it is not like he had the car at the track on two different occasions!!!! What did you expect him to run to Napa between races and get a custom built spoiler??? Come on Wade be reasonable.  Not like these races were on two different saturday nights! If you are seeing these rules bent so much take it up with the right people and try to get something done about it. I understand you have showed up for every race,but most of those that show up randomly have gotten fed up with something at the track or who knows what,but just like you they showed up to race and the more competion the better. makes it a challenge. They also bring more people with them and help a struggling track survive! Those stands can use all the people we can drag,push or other wise get into them. Maybe if we can get the car count back up we can get more people in the stands and get the payouts up and make it a little more worth everyones while.Alan works hard at running a clean race.  I agree. I also noticed you didnt mention Miller in this sentence. :shock:Maybe I didn't mention Miller,but you also didn't mention the conduct of the other Koens on the track either :shock:My whole point to you they're two sides to every story and I don't think anyone weather it be Miller or Cress showed up to cheat or destroy anyones cars,or to take the risk of doing it to there own!!! Racing is racing and **** happens. I have sat back and watched people whine on this race chat about things before they ever happen, or afterward. I usually don't say much to anyone just try to come and go and do my own thing.  And this is why I don't .

I'm not a cool (guy) or even considered to be a nice person but I certainly didn't mean to upset you.  I never want the (constructive?) 'criticism' I gave (or will in the future give) regarding other drivers to ever make anyone, especially fans, feel heartbroken.  My intent is to offer them for consideration (and anyone else reading my comments) an alternative opinion to what was being said.  I do hope you are able to get actively involved in racing and have nothing but fun without ever getting 'bad mouthed', but my past racing experience has included much more than that (the point I was TRYING to make), which is a big part of why it is such a rewarding sport.  I truly apologize.  Larry M

And I will stick to my side. You and Miller are crazy if you really think I would turn to my RIGHT going into turn 1. I knew he was there and I ALWAYS leave room on the outside when racing side/side with anyone! DAVID MILLER WRECKED ME PERIOD! 

I never said Cress showed up to cheat so please dont put words into my mouth. They are racers and they, like all of us, will get all the help they can legally get. The officials dropped the ball on that one and I voiced my opinion to them to no avail. For whatever reason the officiating on this particular night...frankly...stunk!:(  I also had lineup issues. After a caution in the 1st main I waited for them to tell me where to restart at but they never said my number so I just waited, then they showed the cone and I knew I was about 5 postions behind where I had just started. Anyway, they ended up never saying anything to me and I lost a couple of spots on that restart. This is the first time I have mentioned it because I felt like it was a isolated incident at the time but after the night was completed I really have to wonder what is going on with the officials at DCS? Why do I need racescan if they are not going to use it?

By the way it would sure be nice to know who you are Mr. T & A Motorsports #17. I enjoy a conversation better when I know who I am talking to...Most of us dont hide our identity here.

Well, I have almost all of the first race...it died with about 5-8 laps left. I changed batteries and because of the lengthy yellow before we even started racing in the 2nd main I got only 2 laps recorded. I love this camera but it just drains the batteries so fast!

I will bring 2 sets of NEW batteries to the last race if we make it...

Tell your son 'hello' for me please. What a great kid!

Will you guys make the last race? How is that motor?

 "You guys have radios...use them and make the correct calls on the track especially when it involves the top two cars in the race! #18 was robbed of a chance at that race and you gave it to the car with the illegal spoiler. Oh that's right. It was his 'grace' race even though he has raced this year already. " (QuoteFrom you Wade)

Wade Here is your quote of the illegal spoiler. To me you are saying they cheated and a couple others that read what you wrote felt that also. I know for a fact they offered to cut it down and officials said it was fine for this time,but yet they made Miller change his before the race. I talked to one of Miller's crew again about everything last night. Them and Cress's crew maintain there positions about everything that happened. I have tried to gather some info before harassing you about all this,not to mention I was there and raced myself and watched your main's because I knew with the outsiders there along with you regulars some one would get ticked off. And it be one hell of a show, And boy was I right about that.

As you say Miller and I are crazy. Maybe,but me his crew,him and multiple others have a different opinnion of what happened that night. It is just that an opinnion! I am not going to argue with you about it. I guess we will have to agree to disagree.

I am sorry you feel that the DCS officials let you down saturday night. If you didn't get put where you belong in the first main why didn't you go there or radio your spotter to harass Rick or someone about that?  If you had charged to where you thought you went they would have had to deal with you and got it straightened out. You would have been no worse off than doing nothing. Worse thing they would have sent you back. I understand your frustrations about the racescan,and I originally thought they were a pain. Go run a track without it and you won't think so anymore. Those officials do try pretty hard,but no one is perfect.

Wade not trying ruffle your feathers to bad just had a different perspective on thanking Miller,and what happened between Cress and your Dad. I have said nothing on here I wouldn't say to your face or anyone else for that matter. I just like you am intitled to my opinnion.  Good luck getting the car back together and we will see you on the 27th!

Both of those tidbits are news to me. I would have let them cut it down and I didn't know there was an issue with Miller's at all.  :D

You still didnt provide us with your name?

I did move up some positions right before the cone but didnt quite make it to may original spot and they started anyway. Watch the video. #6 was still trying to figure his spot too and they didnt care. So I usually agree with what you said, but this time they didnt care if cars were out of line, they ran the race that way. I know you mean well, I guess, but you seem to want to disagree with EVERYTHING I mention whether you are correct or not!


How can anyone but Miller and myself know what happened on the track? He knows he took me out and so do I. You were not on the track and either were your other 'multiple others'

As far as the quote that you posted from me. Well, like I said the spoiler was illegal. Was Cress trying to cheat. No. And I NEVER said that. Cheating is when you are knowingly breaking the rules. The DCS officials crew allowed them to have the 8" spoiler. So if the officials bend the rules for them then they cant being cheating.  Again, that is a clear advantage and nobody else could run it! Grace race for them in a different car but I cant have one? That is my issue here! You need to re-read my posts...completely, not just what you want to pick out and try paint a bad picture from my perspective. Alan knows how I feel about him and that is good enough for me. If I had a problem with Alan or Stan, I would tell them. And I wouldnt hide behind a false name like you.

I believe he drives the 17 Mini stock Wade. If I am correct, just have a look at the drivers roster on the Speedway website...

I have never tried to hide behind a false name at all Wade.  Just figured most people knew who I was on here. But then again I assumed people would figure it out. I do disagree with alot of what you have said but then again i have also said that is my opinnion and we might have to agree to disagree to. That is all it is "MY OPINNION".   I just had guts enough to speak up and voice it.  If you want to get in touch with Dave so you two can hash it out. I can private mesage you his cell number,shop home whatever you want that way you two can figure it out.  Here again wasn't trying to ruffle your feathers quite so much,just offered up my opinnion that there were two sides to every story.

Now that we talked, are we good on this now?  :D  Clear as mud?

Thanks Wade - I am glad you think the little guy is great - we are pretty proud of him as well. He is starting out young as a racer - we bought him a 1/4 midget so he can get started. He has already tore it up. I will let him know you say "hello".  As for the motor, when we got back home we tore it down and found out that we have cracked heads. Do you know of anyone that is selling a set of good heads for fairly cheap that we could purchase. We think we were also overheating because of the radiator so I just purchased a C & R radiator from a yakima driver. So hopefully if we get a set of heads and with this new radiator we wont have any problems.

Rick thank you for taking the time to talk with me today. I guess I will just say that I am NOT a fan of the grace race and leave it at that. :D

I know - we are wanting to go to Shasta in October so we are trying to get the kinks out. Our main goal is to get the car figured out for next season.
