A medical doctor, an engineer, and a management consultant were arguing about what was the oldest profession in the world.

The doctor started… "Well, in the Bible, it says that God created Eve from a rib taken from Adam’s body. This must have required surgery, and so I can claim with a high degree of confidence that mine is the oldest profession in the world."

The engineer responded, and said, "But earlier in the book of Genesis, it states that God created the order of the heavens and the earth from out of the chaos. This was the first and certainly the most impressive application of civil engineering. Therefore, dear doctor, you are wrong: mine is surely the oldest profession in the world."

The management consultant leaned back in his chair, smiled, and then said confidently, "Ah, but who do you think created the chaos?"

Oh yeah ... I forgot about Orange Show being converted to dirt.

We raced USAC Focus Midgets there from 2005-2011 (obviously when it was pavement). Orange Show was part of the Western States USAC Tour.

Do you know Walt Boyd & Kyle Cline? They raced Dwarf cars & the USAC Focus Midgets.

I have met Walt Boyd a few times, he is a character!! Don't know Kyle by name ...may know him by car. We've been doing dwarf cars since end of 2009 (I don't drive I wrench). Since you're into pavement... I used to help out a couple of roundy round drivers at Saugus Speedway back in the 80's, and we used to build engines for a lot of cars there (Bill Loe racing engines)..

We ran Orange show Mesa Marin and El Cajon on occasions. Bill Loe went on to work for Spears then Bill Moropoles (sp) doing engines for irwindale and now has a shop up in Bako doing engines for that new track and some dirt cars You know him??
