Pretty sure he's come to peace with that decision. Uncle Paul has been a staple of consistency and professionalism all this time and a tough competitor. We'll miss you!

In other words, my points lead is shrinking! Time to get more top 5's. ^_^

Hope you aren't stealing my technique LOL J/K bro.

I didn't get to race with you as long as others here Paul but I learned so much from you while I was on your squad. A true competitor and racer, I see professional guys come here and I know you're one of those reasons why they do. It's an honor to have someone so professional to learn and work with. Thanks man.

The secret so far this year is making all the cuts and stringing top 5's and 10's. But then again, isn't that the secret every year?

That's very true, Lemmy! Know that's been mine so far, off to a good start.

Good job so far Ell buddy!

Your doing good work out there American. Keep it up mate and we won't catch you.

I heard about Paul leaving and I'd like to say thanks for being a hero to me and role model to all the other guys and gals on the track

I should check in here more often lol but Paul bro you are a tremendous driver and even better human being. I'll miss racing with you if this is indeed your last year and I know if I hadn't missed a few years you and I would have split a few of those championships up. Hope your final year brings success and maybe even a championship.

So hard to believe you're done after this year, Paul.. you gave me my start racing with everyone in this family and I can't thank you enough for that opportunity that I still have today! You are such a wonderful teacher and a beautiful person inside and out, it will not be the same without you!

Hello my friends, Fernando here. Letting you know that Hector will be in the truck race tomorrow night as scheduled. Hope everyone has fun. Take care, talk again soon.

Did Hector have anything to say about us again? I'm just curious.

Thank you all so much for your touching words and support, it's hard to step away from the action out there but I know this is the right time to make my curtain call as a driver. I can't thank every driver enough for their strong competitive spirits and supportiveness of each other, there's truly no other league like ours. It won't be the same for me after the season ends but I'll still be helping keeping the league going and going strong.

Also Lemmy, Hector did have things to say about his experience on Saturday. He said he enjoys how seriously we take our racing but also our tremendous amount of respect for each other. He also said that he was very impressed with Robbie again and that if he could start a racing team that Robbie is the kind of driver he'd hire.

Hell of a job out there Robbie, you've gotten his attention and respect twice now this year. That is a lot to be proud of bud!

WOW!! Robbie will be SO excited to hear this! We are all so proud of him and this just makes us prouder! Please tell Hector thank you so much for the compliments and respect he's shown us!

Sorry I'm late with this but congrats Robbie. You've really got his attention, I've noticed you have your best races on the big stages. Keep it up bud.

In terms of racing this past Friday, I'd like to congratulate Chris on an awesome win. Way to hold them off bud. Kudos also to Greg, Jessica and Paul.

For the Saturday night race, we all know that I took the win and that I also have kudos for Laura and Robbie. I'm also disappointed about two issues we had there. #1 is that we were a bit too aggressive in causing that crash, we don't need to be going 4 wide after only 15 laps in a race. I know that nobody here was the cause of that but I'm just saying for the future, drive competitively but drive SMART. #2 is for Todd and the slower trucks out there, you guys need to do a better job of moving out of the way of the competitive trucks. You guys know you're too far back so why keep the lead lap drivers from racing for position? Please use your head next time, Todd.

I understand your frustration with the crash bro but that's just pack racing at Daytona. I honestly feel that the #07 just got a little too caught up in the competition and knew he made a bad move. Also, I don't want to sound like I'm joining in the bashing but slower trucks do need to get out of the way, even I kept getting caught up behind someone who didn't want to just go high and let the faster guys go.

I'm honored from all the praise you guys are giving me lately. It really gives me confidence and in terms of the wreck Saturday night I stuck with what Paul told me which is pick a lane and drive straight.

I'm glad Hector likes us. Hope he makes it into an E-League race someday, I'd enjoy racing him.

Nice work Rob brah, I saw the replay. Drove that thing like a boss.

I'm really not having the year I thought I would so far. Just way off.

Also WTG on getting through that crash, Robbie. You're really learning fast.

Nice win Danny bro. Not so way off now.

So yeah, I got spun trying to go into the pits. Pretty sure everyone involved was pissed off.

pissed me off too!! a lot of us were having a good run and a dumb spin like that ruined it!!

It was a total tard move by that guy Grampa Paul. He got what he deserved from it tho

I don't blame you for being mad, Paul! Someone that experienced should know better than that.

I agree, it was a crap move. Took a lot of us out.

Hello friends, Fernando here again. Hector will be running next week's truck race and most likely the week after that as well. I will keep you updated on the week after that in case anything changes.

Take care and have fun.

Almost won last night. Dang it! I can't wait to race Hector the next two weeks I'm honored to race with someone who thinks so much of my ability.
