A Letter from the BGN Champ Donny Moore

To all MSRL'ers,
Winning the Busch series championship was a real thrill for me. I would first like to thank all you guys who ran in the series. The veteran guys and all the new guys, thanks for some fast, clean, and fun racing. All this could not have been possible had it not been for the endless work it takes to run the league. Ron Blackwell stuck to it when this league faced turmoil in the middle of the season. With the help of his crew, they went out and recruited some fine drivers and made the league bigger and better and for that I tip my cap. With a little luck, Ron or Barry Wolf  could easily be in my spot today. Both scoring season high 8 wins and both making a furious run at the end of the series to make things interesting. Lastly, I'd like to say a very big thank you to Dennis Brasfield. It was Dennis who I always had my eye on. countless times we raced side by side, lap after lap, always fast and clean Thanks Dennis for all the enjoyment. Thanks to ALL the drivers. You are what makes the league possible, I raise my glass to you!!
                                                                                                                                                           Sincerely, Donny Moore
