Satire is primarily a literary genre or form, although in practice it can also be found in the graphic and performing arts. In satire, vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, ideally with the intent of shaming individuals, and society itself, into improvement.[1] Although satire is usually meant to be funny, its greater purpose is often constructive social criticism, using wit as a weapon.

Hi guys,

Just wanted to say thank you again for a wonderful June Sprints weekend! Had a great time running with a bunch of familiar faces, althought I think most I hadn't had the pleasure of 'racing' with before... and was always great meeting some new faces as well. :)

Special THANK YOU to Derek Whitis of Freedom Autosport for giving me the opportunity in lending a car, Long Road Racing & Race Engineering for the prep, and of course the East Street Racing chassis. Hope to get another chance to play with you guys again soon...

Looking forward to seeing everyone next time,

Tom Long

What a great wknd, really what SM is all about. Good racing, friends, food and lots of b.s. Like Wheeler said out of 47 cars on the grid, Advanced, OPM and East Street we had 22 of them we took care of over 4 days. We had 7 of the top 10 in qualifying and the FP pole with Kannard. We ended up with a win, 5 of the top 10 and a new track record in SM and a win in FP and 2nd and 4th in STL. Makes you want to hang with this group next race does'nt it ?

Todd Buras, OPM and Eaststreet power, 7 National wins, 4 track records and a win at the June Sprints. Not a bad year. Now if Jim and I had any idea what he was talking about when he tries to tell us what the car is doing we could be really good.

Danny I know it was not the result you wanted but we are so close and its the best looking car in the paddock. I am a little prejudiced though.

Great wknd Tom Long and Freedom, great seeing you guys.

Big shout out to Stephan Tisseront and his new Ti-Speed 01. Never been there and P-4 in Qual and ran in the lead group, unreal. Voytek was fast as usual just one of those deals.

Florida boys we missed you, the Run-Offs will be a different story. Overheard last year, late at night, nice restaurant at the Run-Offs, Ooh no Mr Charbonneau I could never do that! I'm only 18.

It makes my job easy when we have so many fast guys under the tent that are so easy to work with. Todd, Danny, Jim, Craig, Stephan, Roger, Pat and Ken Thanks for letting us be a part of it.

Actually it would be completly legal. I can wear my tires out on th track, on the street or on a shaver. All are legal.

BUT

We tried it already. Bad idea. 1.5 seconds faster on stickers than on freshly shaved
