S M 's Bio

Thank You and God Bless Fort Hood Police SGT. Kimberly Munley, for putting yourself in the line of fire and saving lives. Hope you have a speedy recovery.

Horn won the Copart Challenge of Champoins at Dega 642 to 594. He also got lucky that Crafton tried for the win, ultimately finishing 10th, and lost 25 points (It could have been 60 points).

I also go by the moniker, Horn Fan on several other sites, if your looking for me you found me on B/R.

I'm a avid auto racing fan, but only like the NCWTS in NASCAR, it's my favorite series these days and the series reminds me of old school NASCAR. I'm talking NASCAR 20+ years ago, like the mix of the young talent, with the wily veterans, the small teams and they put on the best show of the three top series.

I'm the community leader of the NCWTS page, write anything and everything about the truck series. Some of my articles have made zimbio.com, catchfence.com, jayski.com, ASK.com on various driver pages in all three series, dalyplanet.com, my tribute to the late Ron Hornaday Sr is posted on ronhornaday.com in his In Memory section, have a Austin Dillon article featured on teamdillonracing.com and had Joan Ren the wife of Rick Ren comment on my article about her husband.

But what I'm most proud about is that Brian Scott, one of the CWTS drivers, joined B/R to comment on a article I wrote about him and is a member of the truck community.

Truck Series: Horn and Brian Scott are my two favorites drivers, along with Happy & the GOAT. I also like Rick Crawford & James Buescher, J.R. Fitzpatrick, Timothy Peters, Chrissy Wallace, Gabi DiCarlo, Caitlin Shaw, Johnny Benson and Rowdy.

Nationwide: Happy & KHI, Kelly Bires, Michael Annett, the Speeddemon & Justin Allgaier.

I also follow Austin Dillon, T-Mac, Bobby Labonte Racing in the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series, the Camping World East Series, NHRA, Indy Series, F1 and Monster Trucks to follow the legendary Grave Digger.

I'm also a Chicago Bears fan, both Charles "Peanut" Tillman & Craig Steltz are my favorites of the current team. While NASCAR is my game on B/R, don't be deceived I really do know my NFL.

Always been a fan of the Under Dogs, can't help it back in 1992, the Underbird made me a believe.

I'm old school, my two other passions are reading Westerns, with a few Mystery/Thriller authors mixed in and listening to Music. Like anything from 80's Metal, to Blues, with a few Country artists mixed in, to Southern Rock , mostly older artists but do like these current artists Gov't Mule, Cross Canadian Ragweed, Shinedown and Black Stone Cherry.

Play a little harmonica, my beverages of choice are Miller High life & Keystone Light (Gotta support the official beer of the Camping World Truck Series.).

All my writing is dedicated to my Dad, miss you Pop.

Joe Sakic handed Ray Bourque the Cup to skate with first and not the tradition with the Captain doing it. In Nascar, Bobby Labonte winning the Winston Cup Championship in 2000. Then Ron Hornaday Jr. winning his third NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Title in 2007 and the first Championship for Kevin Harvick Incorporated.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    In 2000, at Atlanta Motor Speedway, got to see Bobby Labonte officially receive the Winston Cup Champion trophy and take a victory lap around the track.

    Since we both have a soft spot for Horn, what's your take on his post-race rant?

    S M, If you have a chance, please read and edit my article entitled Please Nascar.I think you will enjoy it. I get more reads on Facebook than BR. It's very frustrating when a real article is buried and never gets read. Thanks, William

    Again, still learning the tagging and all that. Thought I'd share since it deals with a CWTS driver and the Earnhardt name...
