Well, another night of racing and depends on who you talk to or if you have seen the race results, but in all and in my humble opinion I believe we are just that much closer. Hot laps and the track is good but the car is to loose, even for hot laps. So we make some minor changes and the car responds nicely - problem is that the track has dried up "BAD" and now we get to chase it. We start the heat on the pole, get jumped on the start and chase the 10 car into and out of turn 1 & 2, down the back stretch and into 3 and that is when all hell broke loose - the sun, beautiful planet that it is - total blinds me, I have no idea where I am, so I real the throttle back and go from 2nd to 8th just like that. Man what a heart breaker, not good for the moral of the guys! Sorry gang. We start the A main in 18th. I have never in all my racing, experienced what happened next - green flag and we drive into turn 1 only to my horror all that is there is a giant cloud of dust - I can't even see the car in front of me! So here we go again, I real the throttle back and just try to hang in there for a few laps hoping that it will get better and it does, now we can pick it up and we do, but now the car is bouncing very hard into the turns and come to find out we have a flat RR - done for the night. So with everybody in pretty good spirits and after a great evening in all, we will maintenance the car on Tuesday evening and get ready for the 12th of June. See you at the races!
