I would give a left nut.....well ok maybe not a nut. But, I sure as hell wish i had the in car video of that run. But all we have is about 3 seconds of me in the staging lanes then the camera shut off. This sucks because this would show actually how far out i was when I was blinded by the oil.

hahaha reminds me of driving down the Columbia River gorge on I-84. Passing a semi going 50mph at night in a corner with sheets of rain coming down. Then when you're about 3/4 up the trailer... the semi dips its tires into the ruts full of water and douses your car with hundreds of gallons of water...

You watch the jersey barrier and hold your course until you can see again. *shudder*

Only difference is you're going 144mph! lol

Do you guys have a diaper on the engine? Similar to SFWD rules?

A special thanks to Tony Palo, Chuck Seitsinger, Mark and Mike with JOTECH/Kenny Tran Racing and many, many others.
I was out helping Snotty on Saturday at Crandall, I tried to give you the bum tire pressure gauge .

It was nice meeting you guys on saturday and watching you break into the nines with the black. I left my paw print on the back of your car when we pushed it in the trailer I was the big bald guy wearing the dallasimports.net shirt.

Good luck when you get the car back together and let us know when you come back down.
