Afterwards he came up to me and said "now that was cool", finally someone else who gets goosebumps when s@#t like that happens
Congrats on the class win to you and Lincoln. Fast car and a great driver and "sportsman" racer behind the wheel. Wish we could have given you a better run in the final.

I was shut-off in Brainerd I believe 2nd round due to a comp car that couldn't figure out how to get off the track.

I was impressed with Mr. Lyle while sitting on the line. He asked numerous times if I was ok. When the track was finally clear, he looked me straight in the eyes and thanked me for being patient.

He made a good impression with me.

I want to add my thanks for the great job done in keeping the starting line consistent during the high heat conditions experienced almost the entire event. My limited point of reference is last year's race but there was an obvious concerted effort this year to provide the best racing surface possible.

At the Division level, I'd also like to compliment the starting line crew that worked the Bowling Green LODRS race. Just like the U.S. Nats., the track preparation at BG was much more consistent this year than last.

Thanks to all involved.
