I reject reality and replace it with my own. The picture in my head has Drago with the checker. My crew would still have me locked in my trailer if that happened to me. Feel really bad for you Jim. I know how hard you worked for it this year.

At airport after sneaking up here to watch the race.

First, CONGRATS LITTLE BUDDY!!!! Not sure anyone had anything or you. Log book a week ago, unloads on Wed, qual up front and kicked ass!! First win with new motor rules suggesting that yes, you can build your own motor and do exceptional!

I was EG's guest in tech until the protests and BS got my blood boiling.

As of last night the 44 car's head failed. EG was fine on the motor. I think the 44 car protested EG for contact, what balls after taking Drago out. 44 was not protested by Drago but via a RFA from the workers.

This could mean a one year suspension for the 44 car and he needs it to ponder if racing is his thing. Anger management poster anyone?

General thoughts, man drama just as high as ever. Most of the field gets along and the banter is great. Few folks are just plain mean spirited and rude.

The 17 and 44 need to team up, peas in a pod.

Thuraday night yielded a shouting match and a finger in chest moment. I was not there but several said the commet was "I'll take you out". 44 car to Drago. EG's dad was there too, restrained after being called a cheater in front of a table of folks there socializing, yup 44 again.

All in all I left feeling like I need to build a car. To race iot just to handle those that are getting a free pass in the asshole department.

More tech news when I land.

A survey will come soon to find out why the car count was low, seems I'm the person being asked that, how the hell do I know lol.

Last thought, unless you bought it from me and we discussed what it is you bought, it is NOT a "JD" part. I don't sell anything these days, buyer beware!!!!

Great to see everyone in all classes, Chip especially!

JD thanks for the report. I have heard similar issues as well. I have not met EG but he seems like a good guy and he drove one hell of a race; if his car passes tech congratulations to him. SG does have a few issues. Even protesting somebody can be done with class which he seems to have none of. It is too bad that Drago never got to show what he had; I know he worked real hard but I guess that is racing. We will see what today brings but it is unlikely that SG will come out of the 2011 runoffs with the respect of his peers.

Having met EG at the Glen, I can tell you he is all class! Very nice down to earth guy even when his car is not doing as he wanted.

Congrats Elivan, you deserved the win, you drove a great race and an exciting race to watch!

[mmcspecracer]

EG and his dad are both first class. His dad built my car and I take driving lessons from EG. The way SG treats EG and his dad and conducts himself is pathetic. Personally, I think it would be great if SG got a one year suspension for an illegal head. This is club racing and we are suppose to have fun. If you cant go to the nationals and enjoy yourself because some two year old is trying to bully you like its the school yard, then what's the point? People spend a lot of money to go to the nationals and if they cant enjoy themselves because one guy is a jerk, then SCCA should make sure that he is not invited back.

Anyone know what happened to Chris (72 car)? He was in 9th with about 3 laps to go looking strong, in a pack with p6 through p10. The next lap he was 23rd, and finished 26th.

I think you answered the questions about why the car count was low with your comments above. Too much drama, too much time, too little fun.

Turn 5 gators knocked battery loose and cause big time short that melted alternator.

[Waterboy]

Sounds like at least they had tech this year.

[Zauskycop]

I'm still up here at RA, working as course marshal, and I have "heard" via some rumors some things. I can confirm JD's rumor about the 44 car, but I have also heard that one car near the top may have had illegal shocks. Tech continues. No, I won't name names since I don't have enough clout in this sport....

"what balls after taking Drago out"
Really, what race were you watching?

[Jim Daniels - FIG]

Past national champ, on probation due to incident with drago this week, out lap, rf to lr contact. That is the race I watched.

[Jim Daniels - FIG]

I was tossed from the 04 Runoffs win, demoted to second. Look up why! That was more than a watching experience.
