I like that - reminds me of my mantra:  "Thorough preparation makes its own luck"

 

Congrats guys - such a fun track - can't wait to get back out there for the 25hrs.

Thanks Todd. That's a Benjamin Disraeli (former British Prim Minister) quote.

Hey Brian....it happens in close quarters racing you definitely apologized, did not mean to infer anything at all, sorry if it came off that way.  I just got 400 (maybe an exageration) about it so it's easier to post here so all can see....  No big deal SXXT happens.  On to the next one...

I am really disappointed with my video cameras right now, none of my front or rear view video worked for the Sunday Race and only the rear worked for Saturday.

 

 I would have had a good view of the whole incident based upon the facebook picture that Joey posted.

 

By the way, I have tons of video from practice sessions and qualifying if anyone wants to see that ,.... Yay.  :cursing: ., it will confirm Charlie's qualifying recap where he went by me and took off for the Oregon crew like I was standing still but my races this weekend were fun as hell because of my poor qualifying.  After the first practice day I thought the passing opportunities were going to be slim but during the race I found at least 4 good places, sometimes hard to make them stick though (again really dissapointed the cameras didn't work.

 

Thanks for another great SFR weekend including arranging the potluck meals. :guinness:   

 

Looking forward to going back to Thunder hill again.

The 88 car was in the dirt ,25 seconds later dropping 4 or 5 spots! Hard to tell in the pictures but the 88 car is a wrap...imagine the shiniest blue Mylar/aluminum looking balloon and double that intensity...you have Kyle Kaisers new car wrap!! Well, it was new before the weekend! I still think it was a double car shove of Joey...
