    Dang, they took my RPAX run and used it as my 3rd run. I only did 2 runs and put the "R"s on.

    Hey, POS Racing, you should have let more air out of Mr. Bakers tires!

    Thanks to J.Fo for the "entertaining" starter signals in the 3rd heat.

    depending on speed at the finish .027 is about 2-3ft. Don't ask how I know.

    There's your answer, POS racing! Pull that front plate and you'll be good to go!

    Dennis, I don't know how you always manage to capture my worst moments for all eternity!

    However, I do especially like the one of the tire right on top of the cone.

    Ouch!
    On the track, I am fearless.
    If you were as slow as me, you wouldn't be afraid either.

    That was an entertaining slide into the cones, you absolutely murdered that cone. Here's what it looked like afterwards. I guess that means you have gotten over your aversion to running over cones; that, or you were just punishing it for scaring you the last time.
