Interesting ATTN: ALL HOUSTON AREA RACERS -- John Huettel @ Northside Plumbing Supply Inc., Friday, October 26, 10:16:18am [1]
I would like to express my gratitude to all the racers and sanctioning bodies that attended Houston Raceway Park for the TIREMAX HIGH VELOCITY IMPACT event last weekend. The race was a huge success and it is all because of you, the racer and race fans. For this I say thanks for your support.
What many have questioned about the race is why it was not held at Houston Motorsports Park. Let me explain that I have shown monetary support to HMP from the first day of planning a dragstrip, to support the best racing facility in the country. The reason is simple, we love drag racing and Houston. This is why we sponsor so many racing events.
I would like to also express how ashamed I am for the way Joe has handled racing in the Houston area. He was supposed to be the icon for the racing community, yet instead he has continued to run racers away from the sport that we all love. We have given him purse money to have better events at HMP, yet seen no progress whatsoever in his racing program. When we asked him to advertise the Impact race, he opted did not do so.
This race could have and should have been ran at HMP but due to the many egos, this race was moved to HRP. I never got involved with the boards but feel that this needed to be addressed.
For the above reasons, I would like to state that we are making plans to have the best racing in the Houston area for 2008. Get your cars ready for some serious action and I hope to see all of you at the races.
Sincerely,
John Huettel

He is talking about HotRodGossip. The point is that John Huetel is the finacial guy behind HMP and he is tired of Joe.

Thank YOU Kyle, Gary, Bonnie and HRP for providing us racers some great organized races for both the racers and spectators.

He claims he doesn't know if the post was a legit post by John or not. There was a comment made that his phone calls were not being returned. Hopefully, it'll get sorted out and there can be some great events without the B.S.

John is serious. There was a meeting yesterday between John and The Bakers. We will see how this pans out.

Kyle's L/S will be done in a few weeks and it is BAD-***. I took some pictures while I was there but I dunno if he wants them posted.
