Because its a joke. I don't speak for anyone with this statement, but I know that no matter how fast or slow my truck is racing with good friends and people you don't quite know yet is the most fun. The last time I went to the track...which was too long ago...I didn't even look at one of my slips. For the most part I don't really care what times I run, I'm not on the level like you or Allen where the times are what matters. Once you get a truck into the 12's and faster that's where times matter, at least in my opinion which means prettty much nothing. Don't even know why I would have to "back myself up" from talking about having friendly races with people.
