high octane junkie Posted March 6, 2008 Posted March 6, 2008 i was at dumont last year when casey mears, kyle busch, and greg biffle were there. i'm in the blue shirt in the last picture. biffle was real cool.. talked to him for awhile, didn't talk to casey at all (he's in a green shirt, you can see in one photo) and kyle was pissed off because his banshee wasn't running well.

Big_Gunz_ Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 We got to meet him at the North Pole during Thanksgiving weekend. Here's a picture of him with my kid (white t-shirt), Wyatt (middle kid), and YFZBob (the big kid). Quote
SandBox_Kid Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 Great racing family. It's nice to see them mingle with the rest of us "common folk." Casey's father, Roger, was a regular racer in the Indianapolis 500 and is a living legend in the off-road racing community. His uncle, Rick, is one of the most beloved American drivers of all-time, winning the Indy 500 a record four times. Quote
Richard Cheese Posted March 7, 2008 Posted March 7, 2008 (edited) all those mears foolios.....roger and his family even rick and his family grew up in Bako.....i remember riding my bike in the foothills north of town out by the bakersfield speedway (okie bowl) and seeing what was a trophy truck back in the 70's.. (full truck body on a race frame with hopped up engine/tranny) just flyin over jumps out by cheapskate and chalk hills .it had "mears gang" in white letters down the red side of the truck..you could hear those clowns a mile away factoid...cheapskate hill was called so, cause all the cheapskates would go to the top of the hill to watch the races @ the okie bowl, instead of paying to get in. perfect view from the top of the hill too Edited March 7, 2008 by richard cheese Quote
Kitcat Posted March 9, 2008 Author Posted March 9, 2008 Nice pics. I thought it was cool that Dumont got featured in USA Today. Quote

This is a cool article one of my friends sent to me at work today... http://www.usatoday.com/sports/motor/nasca...nterstitialskip We were there last weekend (March 1 & 2) Kyle & Kurt Busch, Jimmie Johnson, Robby Gordon and Roger and Casey Mears were there. Robby Gordon drove his Hummer H3 there, but the others flew in by helicopter. Sooooo Cool!!! Quote

And watched all the big wigs get helicoptered out! Oh well, it was fun anyway. Quote
