[FLEMING]

A guy asked me to drive his little tube chassis vega in box for a while.. Like 3rd round I ran a faster car and went to kill a bunch at the stripe cause I was get'n there a ton.. That little car had really good brakes because I proceeded to lock all 4 tires up and get dirt track sideways.. I didnt wreck it but man I thought I had.. It didnt scare me that I about wrecked, it scared me that I almost wrecked a car that wasnt mine.. I just kept thinking how was I gonna look him in the face if I had wrecked his car... My ole nova you could get on the brakes as hard as you wanted and it "might" attempt to slide the front wheels occaisionally, but this little car just locked em up.. I won that round, but was a lot more gracious with the brake pedal at the stripe..

I dont drive other peoples cars very much, just dont like it much, I drove another guys super gas car and I came down the hill from tech at clay city and didnt have a sign of a brake pedal.. (the master cylinder rod had fallen out).. Why people build cars and dont fix them where this cant happen I dont know.. The same guy didnt fix it where it couldnt happen again and hit a car in the lanes at bristol when it did it again.. Needless to say I never drove that car again..
