This Friday the ASCS Sprint cars are back in Beaumont and at the Houston Raceway Park in Baytown.

The local sprint car driver Gary Watson and owner of Gary Watson Racing on College Street in Beaumont is going to try for a REPEAT of the there last night in Beaumont and pull off another win.

Come out and support our local racers and get ready for a great night of racing

The next week there is another big night at the track when the United States Modified Touring Series is coming back to town.

This is a very exciting class to come out and watch, these modifieds run probably 3/4 of the straight aways on 3 wheels and the left front tire hardly ever touches the track.

These cars were so fast last Saturday that when the leader Channin Tankersly (a 17 year old kid) past the stands on the pits side there was about a 2' long vapor trail that came off the back of the wing.

The kid was flying and was running the top of track right on the cushion.

It was a good night of racing, just wish more people could have made it but I think that some people might have thought that they would be rained out.

They will be back in town in September so come out and fill the stands or one better come into the pits a visit with the drivers.

      It’s a fact.  Are you not bothered with those?  Big girl also has an issue with facts.  Must be a liberal thing!

      That’s kinda over-simplifying matters.    Are you talking about local politics or the platforms of the DNC/RNC? They’re two completely different scenarios.    To be frank, a politician couldn’t get elected in Hardin County as a Republican… until 2010-2011 when the locals all switched to the R Party.    I think that the truest example of a Democrat is the late George Wallace, Governor of Alabama. He ran in 1958 against a staunch segregationist and lost big time. Both Dems, btw. He came back in 1962 as a hardcore opponent of integration and won handily, becoming the racist spokesperson for a South that wanted to remain segregated. By 1982 he won his last term as Governor of alabama, still as a democrat, but carrying over 90% of the black vote.    Who switched? Was it the party? The politicians? The people? All of the above, in all different directions and over a period of about 60 years.   The problem with arguments about switching is that there are no constants.  We all know that guy…. southern accent, white-headed flat top haircut, short sleeve western shirt with those old wrangler double-knit pants. He probably held public office all over the south, and he had some really crazy ideas about race…. Might not have been in the Klan, but knew a bunch of people who were or had been. And he voted 100% Democrat.     We can all say “yeah, and he became a Republican after the civil rights act was passed!” And we’d be wrong.  The truth is that those old ideals and ways of thinking pretty much died off.    The truth of the matter is that the civil rights act passed the senate with a 71-29 vote majority.  But it’s interesting to point out that the 71 “yes” votes were actually 27 Republicans and 44 Democrats voting “for” the civil rights act, with 6 Republicans and 21 Democrats voting against the Civil Rights Act.  So which party was in favor and which one opposed?   And now 60 years later, with an ideological split in America, both sides are trying to claim moral superiority and cast blame over history that, to be frank, we don’t understand.    But to be honest, the Democrat party of 2024 is not what it was… and neither is the Republican. Just because things are so black-and -white today doesn’t mean that they always have been.
