Rusty Gaspard....

I heard it was his birthday saturday at the track!! Happy late birthday Rusty! And he is also your winner at the limited martinsville racin 2:1 odds on that!

He has to pass Nathan and Travis first, and I don't see that happening.

That is the Limiited entry list so his name would not be posted on that.

I was looking at some pictures from practice last week at Martinsville and Nathan was there practicing with the limited cars......Who knows?

I know other people that were there and plan on racing and there names are not posted. I think that list was put a while back and hasn't been updated.

Just for the record. Rustys birthday WAS NOT last weekend thank you very much. I bet he does really well too!!

LOL

yea i hear whitey wish rusty a birthday like 6 times saturday night for it not to be his birthday. and also about nathan he was intending to race the limited race but nascar contacted him later in the week and told nathan that he would have to run the latemodel race instead. aparently you can not run any more that 5 late model races in 10years which if you ask me is kinda redictulous

that does seem a lil ridiculous to me also.... JMO if you have a car and its legal and up to Nascar specs for that race, it shouldnt matter what you have run during the season or in past years.... im not up on Nascar rules but it seem crazy to me.... i mean come on they gonna hold it against someone if they run ucar or anycar too???? JMO i dont think it should matter as long as you have a car that is legal for that race...

It was just put out there so people like Phillip Morris, FDJ, Chad Harris don't go out there with there $40,000 Late Models and make it boring.

yeah i can see that point too it just hurts these other local drivers that dont have that kinda money in their cars but can be competitive also...

yeah and by the way DAN MARTiN 03, Roanoke will be there. i was gona go to help my dad out, but i am too young to get into the pitss.

rusty qualfied 20th at martinsville and finshied 15th today

after he wrecked half of the field......

He most certainly did not wreck half the field. Maybe someone should have been paying more attention.

you are correct, he wrecked OVER half the field and wheat got the rest of em, but ya got to give him credit, he did out qualify about 40 other cars.

hahahahahah come on guys... be easy

WELL I GUESS HE CAME A LONG WAYS FROM SPININ OUT EVERY OTHER LAP TO QUALIFY THE BIG RACE

I know of atleast 1 car he wrecked... Which was the #63 of Nick Cole

You really have to give the boy some credit, this is his first year. He made it in the race thru qualifying without having to go thru the heat race. He has came really far. You cant blame the wrecks on him. He was too busy dodging the wrecks to cause them.

HE HAS COME A LONG WAY IM IN THE PITS EVERY SAT AND TO SEE WHAT HE IS WORKIN WITH AND THE CREW HE HAS THEY ALL HAVE CAME A LONG WAY I WOULD LOVE TO SEE HIM WIN MORE RACES

He would do alot better if he had a real crew to help him. But he seems to be managing pretty darn for well what he has.

Rusty good job if they got wreacked it was because u had to go. i bet

JMO the boy cant drive when there is more than 4 cars on the track. I personal talked to a couple of drivers after the race and they was not very happy with his driving style and im one of them he wrecked me once early in the race and tried to wreck me more than 4 more times after that. Not crying over spilled milk but there is one thing I DONT FORGET!!!
