Only looks like that when you spin .08 and run .08 over. (I'll let you do the math.) Had him a few thou on the tree, .021 to .026. I'm still in disbelief that the car spun. That's simply RIDICULOUS. There's nothing more frustrating than doing your job and losing to something out of your control. The barometer was down about .60, the tailwind was 20-23mph straight downtrack. Weather station predicted about .15 slow, I dialed down .05, and if it would've hooked like it did all week, was heading for dead-on. Still picked up 2 mph. Job well done to Hudlow, taking .017 stripe. Wish I could've given you a real race.

Great seeing and meeting everyone this weekend, and best of luck to those remaining.
