Well our tour plans have changed! First round this morning against Brad Plourd, the car got up so high it almost flipped over and Larry had to get out of it. It bent the oil pan, but no leaks on the track. The fenders and doors hit and popped some paint off. So now we are headed home and take everything apart and see what all is hurt. Hopefully we will make it to St. Louis and then on with our trip, but we will have to see how bad it is when we get home. I hope someone at least got a picture! I was up in the stands yelling "sh*****"!

Bet Larry was saying "double sh...." Was listening on audiocast and Reinhart went wild with that wheelstand, kept talking about how nice the car is and that he hoped it didn't get hurt too bad, and we hope that and you'll be able to get everything fixed up for St Louis (or even Columbus). Safe trip home...

You better tighten those shocks up. The air is getting better.

Now for a little advice --don't be stupid like me and race a wheel-standing car without wheelie bars! Here are some pictures of evidence of where it was on the bumper.
