while you guys were a-x ing Sunday.....

Post by John Brown »

Looked as if it was a great event! Wish I could have made it..but heres what I was doing Sunday..
After taking the 1.5hr Enduro overall win Fri,and the Premier race Sat.. I was ready for a "fun race" and thats what it was..till my tires went south.. :evil:
After getting top qualifying spot the Chief Steward decided to reverse the start positions and that put me in the very back. The car owner told me(kidding) that I only had 2 laps to get to the front... :roll:

Heres what it looked like.......

Damn! Nice job getting to the front in half a lap!


Looks intense. I gotta try some wheel to wheel at some point.

Nice driving, but are all those cars in the same class? It appeared that you had an extra 50+ hp on all of them.

no, prolly 6 diff classes. The last car I passed (white,waaay out front) is a new WC car in testing.

50? eh,maybe. :wink:

Lol, I like how the shift knob moves around as you are weaving on the warm-up lap. Thought it was the camera or something at first.

Very nice job disposing of the traffic... :lol:
