Scooby Dooby Doo Conditions

 I feel it is not good that the ARCA Menards Series is in Straight $ Scooby Dooby Doo Conditions and to make it worse, we are itchy and impatient for something actually positive. My concern is if it was Toledo or Flat Rock, which is Traditional ARCA Territory, and they pulled something like that, the reaction would be Vulgar.

Talladega does not have Lights for Night Racing and throwing $ on the Plastic Surgery when it is only going to last 10 Years does not help our Cause. To be fair, there has not been a lot of positive to jump up and down over in ARCA (Independent or NASCAR) in recent years.

If ARCA came to Hawkeye Downs, I would want to Identify who is actually wanting to be Good to Equipment. I feel that the horizon is not getting any better, and if we had Corey Heim, Hailie Deegan, and Ty Gibbs pile on Wins, it would be still an empty series.

ARCA would have problems staying an Independent Series. Trying to throw NASCAR's K and N East and West Series together have not made it any better.

Would a 5 Spoke ARCA Series be Literally Everywhere?

 I feel that having a 5 Spoke ARCA Series would literally be everywhere, and I feel it won't come in time for 2022, but, we'd need to avoid repeats of the Shunts that kept happening this past season. There where times we'd play NORC in Real Life, and the cruel irony is NORC is going Bye-Bye with the NORCTONA 500.

I would want to see a 5 Spoke ARCA Series be literally everywhere and have racers with Real Interest in Late Model Cars again. I would feel hot that I would have waited All Day for Actual Racing and the Best You Can Do is Bury a Substandard Milwaukee Mile Race that should have meant more.

Trust me, it should have meant more. If it was a Replacement Birmingham, it would be all over my TV! You shouldn't have to wonder about who'd be up in the Future, because it brings Welcome Freshmen "Mystery Meat" Vibes and I'd always hated Salisbury Steak because it was not real Steak and I'd get into it with the Lunch Ladies over why it was not Steak.

If you focus your fights on the Lunch Ladies, it is Problematic. I am tired and I want my Taras and Monicas Back. I get real tired of "The Worst People in Sports" even though I started it to the chagrin of one of my Classmates, even though I wanted to make a Treehouse of Horror Post because I was dissatisfied with the Treehouse of Horror.

Sadly, certain people just don't care and it is a Bad Bar, and they'd fight anyone and everyone like no one was watching.

Return of the Wolf!

 Years ago, "Big Daddy" Don Garlits said Darrell Gwynn was "The Wolf" because there was no one more relentless in his preparation and his relentlessness to Win. I am still very emotional about Darrell Gwynn being crippled many years ago.

And, coming back to the Current Day, Nick Sanchez stole an ARCA Upset at Kansas Speedway and I feel this is "THE RETURN OF THE WOLF" Victory! There is a backstory to this and this is the 1st Miami Born and Raised Major Motorsports Race Winner since Darrell Gwynn.

Homestead being later built and Ross Chastain driving to win in Cup, and Helio Castroneves and Tony Kanaan later called Miami their Base from Brazil, but, I feel there is nothing sweeter than having a Miami Born and Raised Major Race Winner.

I would like to see Nick Sanchez win the ARCA Championship and I would like to see a Fair Fight, for a Change of Venue at ARCA, even if it was Hawkeye Downs, Knoxville, State Fair or anywhere. I don't want to see Ty Gibbs think he's Greg Anderson and Corey Heim think he's Kurt Johnson again and Corey Heim's Fans would take it personal and Chicagoland would not like to be Owned ever again!

Let's Restore the ARCA Independent's Spirit!

 I feel that I want to see the ARCA Independent's Spirit be restored again! I feel a big part of that restoration would be having an Independent Stock Car Late Model Series. I am wanting at least not only Eastern Iowa Tracks, but, Eastern Iowa Teams and Eastern Iowa Jobs on top of it.

It would benefit Eastern Iowa Schools and lend Eastern Iowa a beneficial sense of Positive Self Esteem. I don't necessarily want to make it all about Home, because I don't want to be Home all the time, but, I feel other people would want to make it about their Home.

If we wanted everything to be about Home, we'd have the biggest Stand Alone Indy Lights or Atlantic Race in History in Eastern Iowa. A lot of the XFinity and Truck Series baseline was borrowed from the Indy Lights and Toyota Atlantic Series.

I'd really want to keep the Toyota Jobs in Eastern Iowa and I am sure none of them want to be Non-Profits. I'd rather be a Target Man than a Nonprofit and I'd be kicking and screaming if I was a Nonprofit, or being Little House on the Prairie without any returns or expectations.

If we had an Independent ARCA Equal to the Deery Brothers Summer Series, which is Eastern Iowa, too, we'd have a positive opinion of Stock Cars rather than have it forced on us because of the CART-IRL Split, or worse, a Lifestyle forced on us.

Hoody Hoo Is In Charge of ARCA?

 I am going to be blunt, the ARCA Menards Series and its Subsystems are due for a Rebranding.  I am calling a Point having to tie Master P's Best Hit and tying it up to ARCA. 

Fans are royally impatient and I feel the Manufacturers and General Tire are wanting to push down a Rebranding, because it is a Lean Set of Years, and I am Itchy for a Healthy Movement that doesn't star Hailie Deegan, Taylor and Tanner Gray and Ty Gibbs.

All those kids want to pursue Winston Cup and I feel I am owed some serious answers. Illinois Tim Richmond is headed home to where they haven't recovered from Pearl Harbor Day 1993 when Eagle cut those Hard Working Jobs, not the Tim Richmond that illicits emotion and the Tim Richmond Stories.

The sad thing, is we are living those Tim Richmond Stories again! I feel as a Late Model Fan, I want to see when ARCA came to Hawkeye Downs, Tipton or Vinton, someone at least give me reason to buy merchandise and tickets later on.

My biggest gripe is at Ilmor or Thrill-mor. Ilmor has earned the Jackson 5 Degree of Jokes for Generations now, and I feel if we had a decent Engine Program that was not neutered tomorrow, would Car Counts improve? The dangerous thing is I am spitballing something akin of "The Hero of the Underground" and nobody wants to be heroic.

I feel that the truth is Ty Gibbs is not going to be confused with Mike Eddy, Bob Senneker or Frank Kimmel. It hurt different that Taylor Gray, who's already on a Short Leash because of how his Brother, Tanner, mistreated the NHRA on the Way Out, lent the Proud ARCA Series some unwanted lowlights.

It's the Milwaukee Mile and the haze of Michigan, Drew Dollar, Thad Moffitt, who actually had to race for Sponsors, and the Kevin Reeds blew sideways after hours. This is ARCA's House, not an After Hours Club and it is still burning.

I'd feel the biggest wrap is having to be stuck in a Lifestyle vs. Actually Doing Racing Things.

There Will Still Be a Further Remaking of Late Model Stock Car Racing!

 I feel anxious that there Still Be a Further Remaking of Late Model Stock Car Racing! I feel the answer for the ARCA Brand should have been a 5 in 1 like the Dan Ryan in Chicago, not a 3 in 1. 

What Ron Hornaday,Jr. said is don't give people Free Beer and Food and they wouldn't come. It is not necessarily having to give Free Beer and Food on the 4th of July, but, it doesn't help that I'd rather talk about Frank Kimmel Numbers or having Target or McDonald's come at will to Sponsor.

I'd probably think that NHRA Officials and Membership would want Sarge to be Spiderman rather than Tony Schumacher going for Nothing as a Full Time Racer. To be frank, a lot of the Late Model Waves like Before, even in the interim time between the ASA and the Southern Super Series and CARS Late Model Tours where closer to Jeff Gordon than that of Tony Stewart.

I do not like or associate being the 24 like I was a Fan Boy, because I would rather'd have the Pontiac or Guys like my Dad or Grandpa. I've said I'd rather'd be a Toyota before I'd be another Nonprofit, but, being a Toyota would drain me and the culture around me from nowhere.

I am Kara Number in Softball Age Back Home and I still don't have Take Me to the Movie Friends. I'd always say "If I Was Your General Manager" like I would actually be harder on someone who'd leave an Empty Checkbook and a Heavy Repair Bill and No Interest in Repairing My Cars.

I'd think NASCAR has to look at Late Model Stock Car Racing as a Development Zone, and if its Year 4 and the Same Old Indy Lights/Toyota Atlantic Numbers and Everyone Under 18 hogging the Star Cars, I'd think either Temperance (ARCA Home Office) would have less of a role or Daytona Beach would have more of a say.

It would definitely not have Year 5 and the Same Old Same, because there is no way ARCA is mistreated like an Earthly NASCAR Heat Game. There is no Frank Kimmel, Mike Eddy, or Bob Senneker, and if I was Buying Tickets, or at least trying to make a Run, there'd have to be an Austin Theriault Clinch By Date.

If you can't get jacked up about the Prairie Meadows, that is a Cultural Issue. I wouldn't want to see another Track that is Paved Built in My State without recurring interest in the Prairie Meadows or their Equal being forgotten due to disinterest.

2 Years into the NASCAR ARCA Experiment, I see too many Tempers.

 I feel 2 Years into the NASCAR ARCA Experiment, I see too many tempers. Even in the K and N/ Late Model ARCA Independent Years, I can account on like a Clockwork Orange Austin Theriault clinching in Springfield until I was told that was not so.

I feel the Car Counts have to be a Concern because of Ilmor. Ilmor has done more Harm than Good to both the ARCA and the Truck Series. Besides Vendors and Heat Waves, the Space Ghost from Coast to Coast like Glass Animals is there aren't enough Cars and Stars, with emphasis on both, to make it fair.

Taylor Gray's Judgment is Very Upsetting and besides Snapchatting in Practice at Daytona and Getting Hurt and letting Ryan Preece get a Truck Series win at the 1st Nashville Superspeedway in a Decade, the main rule of Auto Racing is don't Right Rear Anyone on the Straightaway.

Taylor Gray already had a Short Leash because of his Brother, Tanner and how he treated Pro Stock and left us with Steve Torrence. I am still upset with Tanner Gray for leaving Pro Stock the way he left it. Just ask Alex Laughlin and Erica Enders how Tanner Gray operates and they won't get a good answer.

I feel with Ty Gibbs, he is not Frank Kimmel, and the problem is he is a Kyle Busch or a Tony Stewart. Nor is he a Frank Kimmel and if ARCA came to Eastern Iowa, I would not be happy with Ty Gibbs because it is one thing to chase the defending XFinity Champion at Daytona, but, I am thinking not having to fix or repair cars is not a sweet life.

Granted, a lot of these years are Pandemic Altered and we haven't known the true value of this, and I feel that generally, there'd be Sponsors lining up for some of these Stars, but, I haven't seen that out of Ty Gibbs.

Why Not An ARCA Southeast and Midwest Tours?

 I would want to see an ARCA Southeast and Midwest Tours, because, I would feel I would want to see more ARCA Cars. We haven't had normal things due to the Pandemic, and the ARCA NASCAR Merger has not been normal, other than ARCA risking drifting away otherwise.

I would want to see a decent ARCA Series Schedule and I don't know if it would work to have a 5 Spoke ARCA System, and that would be more about Series and Driver Development. I feel what is lost in a Hailie Deegan or a Ty Gibbs developing is ARCA should take more of a role in Driver Development.

I'd think that ARCA should be rebranded at some point, and I don't know if that would illicit opinions. All of those opinions would not be good.

Is there any Miracles to have ARCA NOT be Indy Lights?

I feel like the focus of ARCA Should be having Ford Families, Chevrolet Families, Pontiac Families, Mopar Families to respect the car and not have a Point of No Return Feud like in Supercross. I feel like if I was having to see ARCA make Hawkeye Downs or Orange County, they'd have to at least have 30 Cars on the ground.

My real worry would be if General Managers and Promoters start getting stipulations like it was the Cartman-Snyder arc, and trust me, that is not pretty. I don't think Indy Lights was going to spend their money on under a Points Standings Worth of Cars, even if we had to shod Hardee's on the cars in their biggest ancestrial market.

I would think this would be due to Rick Hendrick freeing the Crazy 88 and stirring a Merchandise Run, except it was Alex Bowman and Not Dale Earnhardt,Jr. . I think the Childress Sponsors went to Penske and the truth is, Hendrick does not want Noah Gragson to blow engines and be a Seth and Toby on Personal Responsibility.

I don't think necessarily in Stock Cars, we'd gas the Cup Division into a DNQ List every Weekend next Winter like we'd have to sell more Indy Cars. I don't think even if we had an IROC Driver of the Year Standing Going, we'd litter the board with Sentimental/Emotional Victories vs. true Season Talent.

This would be a jump in Multiple areas and not all of them would be good. Is there any miracles to have ARCA NOT be Indy Lights in the sense of too thin Car Counts?

Ilmor should ship out of the Truck Series and ARCA Stat!

This won't shift, unlike NASCAR Heat 4 Storylines. But, I have a real gripe with Ilmor's Well Known History of Substandard Engines.

The Gander Outdoors Truck Series has suffered too much. The Worst Bottom 5 in Auto Racing (Jennifer Jo Cobb, Jordan Anderson, Tyler Dippel, Bayley Currey, and Austin Wayne Self) earned fair and square, and I thought it'd be 6 Weeks to the next date.

Kids, dates are privileges, not rights. You don't just move your way on those even if you wanted to make right. My real bone is a lot of these teams have a load of out of house work and that is worsening expectations.

It has became "Can You Keep A Secret?" . We are 2 To Go on ARCA Independent, with no big dials to pay their bills with, and being flagrantly void on imagination, and we get stuck with the people that permenantly disrupted our 1st Shift.

If beating Haas was an option, we'd be swarming Formula One. But, we'd have to  think Atlanta vs. Charlotte in this.

2020 NASCAR Menards Midwest Tour Inaugural Slate (Currently ARCA Racing Series)

I feel this is the centerpiece of the 4 for 1 NASCAR Pro Series System, Covering the Split of the K and N East being as necessary as a Texas Baseball Rangers Off Season Trade and the other piece of this is having to instead of the 3 in 1, having the Series 4 in 1 and I feel this would be the current ARCA Racing Series and I think the trickier part is the ARCA CRA Tour, which is a crock vs. the ASA AC Delco Series, would have to be a Garage Buy. And, I feel as if this series would be closer to the Truck Slate more than the archtypical Regional 20

M 1 Eldora I feel this is the Series Premiere b/c it would be Lowcountry Enough not to have Soggy Grounds

2 Salem

3 Winchester

4 Anderson

5 Indiana State Fair

6 Terre Haute

M 7 IRP

8 Toledo

M 9 Michigan

10 Flat Rock

M 11 Road America

12 Blackhawk Farms Unique b/c it covers Wisconsin and Illinois.

13 Chicagoland

14 Brainerd

15 and 16 Castrol Edmonton (I feel if the passports will be worth money, go for an International 2)

17 Red River Valley

18 Eagle

19 Knoxville

20 Hawkeye Downs

21 I-70

22 Kansas

23 Belleville

24 Gateway

25 IL State Fair

26 DuQuion

27 Salem

28 Winchester

M 29 Anderson

I'd try to make it a Midwest Series de facto, and I feel that if the scheduling bridge is crossed, I'm sure there will be territorial/preference/managerial matterisms to take in hand.
