Billy just like people say there are always two sides to every story....how about the side when you showed up and Maskins shit was running good working with your dad and paul (Maskins main engine builder) then you showed up and told maskin how great you were and managed to have paul quit and took everything they learned to Mike Edwards and now see how he is running..always in the top 5..Now you bust there balls and we remember you qualified once..So now they are kind of starting over after Maskin figured it out..If you are that smart Why are you running ADRL...Hell fix those 2 motors of Maskins you wont give back that he is suing you over that you wont return and go kick Andersons ass...HEEHEEHEE as you say

The last event I was at, I was the only car to get in on the last session. And Justin was top three, the race after I was gone they did not qualify, as was the case the next race. And then dick parted ways, and yates has probably the best working front car, and has barely made the fields lately, in fact he says in a recent interview they do not have enough power to threaten the top 8. Their speed is way down, and they are struggling. I would however run those engines, but a judge has told me that I can not, so I run where I can, now either way, I am doing much better than you, no matter who you are, hehehe!!! Loser, BG

dick called me and asked me to come there, Paul will tell anyone, that me being there had nothing to do with his leaving, he was going to do this eitherway. He is a talented fellow, and has proven to be at mikes. But the treatment he was complaining about, and warning me about, can only go on so long. I think you should have an idea of what you are talking about, before being so darned stupid! BG

JFC!! I see the same old fuckin story every time, for fucks sake, I can't leave you children alone for one minute!! Look, bottom line here,everyones jealous because Bill hands them thier ass, it's been that way forever and he still hands them thier ass,get the fuck over it people. I used to have a huge fuckin beef with Lynch/ Petty as alot of people here know and it was over stupid bullshit, I had the balls along with a little shoving from Monty to go and talk to these guys and guess what? they were some of the nicest people i ever met, and yes, that includes you April, not everyone is going to get along but Im sure if you fucksticks talked to Bill and shannon you would find that they are very frindly and nice people and have always been to me, even when they are both up to thier elbows thrashing on a car. Im probably the last person on this board you would ever think you might here this from but god dammit, can't we stress about more important shit than this Glidden thing every day? Yes, after a short hiatus I should have found a different avenue to return like maybe" I fuckin missed you guys" but for fuck sake, it's the same shit over and over. That all being said,How the hell are you??:party

The first time i met Billy and Shannon & a crew guy, i think he was an electrician, was at an NMCA Race in Huntsville Alabama when they ran 1/8 mile. That was a long time ago. Everytime that we have met at a race Billy and Shannon made us feel like we were a part of their racing family. They did not know me or my buddy from Adam but they would talk to us and answer every stupid question we would ask. In orlando, Billy finally stuck my buddy's wife in the car to shut her up so he could finish working on the car. Every race that we were planning to attend we would call Shannon to see if they were going too. the last orlando trip that we attended we ordered shirts for the guys and Shannon brought my buddy's wife a sweatshirt(no charge). Billy won the race and we got to get our pictures taken with him in the winners circle. From the first day that i met them, they have been the hardest working crew at the track. I have watched as they changed motors and trannies at all hours of the day and nite.I have seen Billy weld up headers for other competitors as well as just help them with whatever. If these phucksticks would take a few minutes next time they see Billy at the track, and just watch they would see how intense and motivated he and Shannon both are. I asked Billy one time about his racing, He said that building engines was his business and that is what provided him the means to race. If he did not have customers running his engines he would not be able to do this. Beside evey good man is a good woman and Billy has that in Shannon. She works just as hard as he does at the track and keeping Billy in line. Quit the hating and enjoy the racing.

X2! His mom and dad were the same way and I'm sure he learned how to act toward competitors and fans from them..Total class act!. I remember the last time I saw Bob win was at the Texas Motorplex and he was walking through the pits after the final round and I'm sure he had better things to do but he still had time to stop and sign and autograph for me and my brother and shoot the bull for a minute.
