Funny thing tough, when Mike Rice told John he was going to have to race with the 10.00 dial, John was under the hood with a wrench adjusting the throttle stop. Why didn't Mike say anything to him about it then?
One more thing. I talked to John again in the tech line (John first came over and talked to me about it about 30 minutes after it happened.) He said he was disappointed that I didn't say that they didn't do it intentionally in my post last weekend. I told him I'm sure everybody knows that you didn't do it intentionally and that I wrote that post before I talked to you. I just want to let everyone know that they didn't do it intentionally.
Nothing like this has ever happened to me before. It's been a learning experience for me and I hope that others can learn by it as well.
Here's the schedules:

Toby the CJ is a drive by wire car (I think) so they wouldn't use a wrench, they would use a laptop to alter throttle opening.
