First trotter in the history of Harness Racing to trot 7 consecutive sub 1:51 miles. Put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Is ERA the deciding factor when judging the 50 best pitchers? There are many facts in baseball. In fact, it is a game of stats. Maybe strikeouts should be used. Maybe win -loss record should be used. Maybe WHIP should be used. Horse racing only has one fact which is time of the race.

Lol. Win loss record matters when comparing pitchers in baseball but win loss record is thrown out the window when comparing racehorses....

Great ones aren't scared to race on ovals smaller than a mile

Of course win loss is irrelevant. The winningest mare pacer of all time was a cheap claimer. Also, I never said win loss should be used in baseball. I was just adding other facts about pitchers. You're the one who brought up ERA. You can try to twist my words all you want but once again, time is the only fact in a horse race.

You're assuming he can't get around a smaller oval. That is an opinion and not a fact.

I AM STILL WAITING GENIUSES>>>>>>>>>>The teletimer is the only FACT when judging a horse's performance. I need a good laugh. Name something else factual and not subjective about judging the performance of a racehorse.

Under those rules Karl is not in the top 3 fastest 2yo or 3yo trotters ever and multiple fillies have gone faster at 3. Facts are facts

Not me, the connections are assuming that.

His final times so far don't put him near the conversation of fastest ever. If final times are all that matter, you must think think horse is an afterthought. I don't get that from you tho

So, you're comparing truly all-time greats----Varenne, Ourasi, Moni Maker, Mack Lobell----with Karl. And, in doing so, you are looking at everything, all factors taken into consideration, everything possible........a nd then, you are comparing that to an argument that is ONLY looking at the teletimer, as the ONLY fact, and on that one factor, that one factor, picks the best horse? I think your time is better spent elsewhere. Actually, let me rephrase that; I think your time is better spent anywhere else. LOL.

Thanks for bringing this up

Mack Lobell is just 1 of many horses better than Karl. Unfortunately, one individual just says the teletimer is the most important. Money made is important too as well as winning on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean.

Another fucking idiot that apparently can't read. I never said Mack Lobell wasn't a great horse. You personally talked to JC who said he is the greatest horse he has ever driven. That may be true but he never said Mack Lobell was the fastest horse he has ever driven which has been my point from the beginning but morons like you spin things your way. Who's insane jerkoff?

Again, fastest isn’t the most important—accomplishment are!

LAY DOWN MIKE, PLEASE LAY DOWN!!!
