I would have dumped it out on the ground and then see what they had to say. Tom

Thumbs up Re: "Live" from Indy US Nationals 2013

Jack, That was a great race and post commentary back 3 pages ago.
Just proves that you are a class act, but I already knew that. Good luck and good racing the rest of the weekend. Take that "Flash" to victory circle.

Makes no sense to me. If you were not qualifying for a field I could see it but, how is it anywhere close to fair when your taking 128 car field. Bunch of BS

Cool Re: "Live" from Indy US Nationals 2013

Good morning - Today for many will be very busy as this morning SuperStock will get their chance at earning a class wally .For others (Stock) today will spent taking apart their engines in the dreaded Indy barn .And as someone who has been on both sides of the fence as they say I can tell you its no fun for the crews or the officials .Indy is a place where if you want to win your parts are right on the edge of legality with not much room to spare anywhere .Its an assembly line process - get 'em in - check 'em and get ready for the next wave of cars coming .Today there will be two shifts - morning and afternoon and later i'll mosey over and see if I can grab the dirt .

For others (such as myself) its a day of reflection - of what could have been had things gone differently yesterday .Woulda - coulda - shoulda .Al I know for sure is that a wally didn't take up residence in my RV last night .But I gave it an honest effort ........

Factory Showdown - what a turn of events - its seemed for awhile that the Cobra Jets and Davids' mighty Mopar would run away from the field but its Indy where anything can happen and did -- spinning tires and breakage played a part as they always do ........would you expect anything less here ?

Back a little later ........

Unbelievable. I usually keep one in my car in a drink holder, so I probably would have been tossed for illegal modifications.
