    Since you've taken that attitude..........no.

    The fire kept everyone on their toes; then there was the Smart car that rolled; the topless flashers leaving the bike school were interesting; but I would have to say the broken water main in the middle of the course took the cake.

    the course was fun, thanks to Jerett

    one driver kinda lost it at the finish at the very end of the first heat, spun sideways and punted a bunch of stuff sitting next to the trailer (blower, display, flour, drywall, etc)

    exciting but thankfully no harm other than to maybe his ego

    two heats due to low entry, and second heat seemed about half the size of the first, don't know if that is fact or not as far as number of runs per heat

    overall decent event operation, just really hot temps

    I stayed indoors too because of the heat, and to work on school work. My last assignment before graduation! But it does sound like I missed out.

    After the 'incident' my number one priority was to not get Ken's Z sideways thru the finish (and it wouldn't have taken much to do so! )

    I'm still drooling. Nothing on Cowtown Vettes Neal, but I'm checking every site I know of.

    I love it when a plan comes together! (Actually I was at least 1/2 second behind Ken, but fully enjoyed driving that beast!)
