Great race, I'll post my vid tonight. You can see Jamie and I come together there in Danny's mirror, it's a shame it turned out that way :( Sorry again Jamie and thanks for letting me use your backup engine this weekend.

No problem!!!!! I thought for sure we were going to have 4 Auto techniks cars in the top 5 but were not racing for points, only pride (and I left mine at the bottom of that hill) LOL!! Next time I give you an engine I will make sure it has less power than mine. All in all it was a good weekend for us anyway. After qualifying so poorly I was happy that I was able to track down the leaders at the end. Of course catching Von C, Chip, and Danny and passing them cleanly is easier said than done. That top 10 was rolling out. What a fun race!!!

Great video and racing, clean but hard racing. Good job to all.

We have only raced that track once but it is certainly one of our favorites.

Hey guys. Here is my video from Sundays race.
Who ever was behind me through one sorry. :P
In qualifying the input shaft on the trans broke so we had to swap in our less than optimal spare.

I was wondering what happened coming out of turn one; now I know. Thanks for giving me lots of room coming over the hill on the first lap. Others would have drove it in deep and forced me off the track :). I raced with you at Barber and VIR and both times you raced me very clean; Thanks!!!!

Please don't give him any ideas!!! Of course at this point I am sure he would like to have an engine that will run for a few years.
