Yo Ken, how come you were a no show in Class elims?

Thanks for those pictures. That Dick Lux Comet wagon is DLux indeed. Not sure if the TorqThrust wheels are the lightest and fastest but they are coolest.

The second qualifying shot the brake pedal went to the floor. The brake line going into the master cylinder where it flares split. Between taking photos and shooting video, I just couldn't get it fixed in time.

James, don't worry about the reports, your racing program comes first.

Good morning all, we are on our way to another warm day, its already 75. Stock will be out first at 8:30 for first round. Not sure about the rest of the schedule as they still have to give Super Comp and Super Gas their second time shot.

The first few photos are from the PC Richard camp. Paul Iaconis, the crew chief sitting on the scooter next to Gary Richard is invaluable when Gary has to run class. Although Gary did not win A/SA, he did run an impressive 9.88@133. I have to thank Paul for his help with getting my stubborn brake system to bleed. Also Eddie Brooks, another PC team member who spent ours with me getting the brakes fixed.

As I think about how many people helped out, Dan Fletcher, who had a master cylinder I could use, his son Thomas and Dave Ficacci for also helping out when I was ready just to f this brake job and fix it at home. It makes you realize why we race, it is certainly not for the money. Racers helping racers, it does not get any better, thanks guys.
