      Steve P. ran the gauntlet Saturday.

      I was embarassed, when W8 and RR blue-flagged me as Betty White lapped me on her Hover-Round.

      I really need:

      1) Skill and Talent
      2) 4.3 diff
      3) Skill and Talent

      If you came home with the car looking the same as it did when you arrived, it was a good weekend. I really didn't blue flag for being slow but I wanted you to check your mirrors.

          Actually no contact at all...

          After a decent start, someone spun him at the first 180.
          I stopped to avoid hitting him in the door.
          A couple of laps later while trying to catch up, he got loose in the bus stop.
          I went off-line to avoid and spun-off track.
          The Steward kept me in the pits after the race as a potential witness to the lap one incident. I was afraid he thought we were beating on each other.

          Was a hard fight to catch the 33 to not finish last.

            My mistake...I thought I heard communications that you guys had nose to nose contact . I am glad it didnt happen that way.

              There was plenty of good racing in most every group all weekend. Watching it was almost as good as driving it.

              Many thanx to all the Alabama guys who came up to race and to work. We cannot have this race without both the drivers and workers.

                Yes, many thanks to all the ALSCCA members who worked AND raced - especially Todd who had plenty of stuff for me to borrow!

                  Here is the video from the Sunday race. I was on used up tires and it shows. The car wouldn't turn or brake or accelerate off the corner. It also had a bad twitch under high speeds. It was a fun race and I apologize to all the other classes that I held up. Notice the front row seat or Clayton and Yellowhammer's wreck at 23 minutes.
                  SARRC Race 6/20/2010. Nashviille Superspeedway with SCCA. I went out on old tires and corded the left front during the race until it went flat. Great battle holding…

                    Thanks for sharing the video, Steve; its fun to ride around with you.

                    When you cannot be there in person, a video is definately the next best thing.

                    Can we all just agree to ignore whatever comes after Blue Ray? I don't want to have to restart my collection ...... again.

                      Here is Saturday's video. I started last, finished 3rd overall. The car actually had tires on it this day.

                        Did that escort really say "have you driven into a ford lately" on the back?

                          Im sure it should have at one point or another that I saw.

                          I almost had to fill out a witness statement on a couple of laps when a certain ITC car helped it on corner exit a couple times.
