PBIR - Citrus pit report

Pat Comstock · 11-29-2008, 10:52 PM

No news? Anybody know what the run schedule is for tomorrow? How about qualifying? Any stats? Ladders? Anything??

Gary Smith · 11-30-2008, 12:23 AM

Came home about 2 hrs ago, first round casualty (lifted too early on a better RT....SUCKS!!) rain forecasted for tomorrow & too many chores to stay at the race. Car count is light in both Stk and S/S, 10 cars each. Nitro, I tried calling the track to get the tower but only a recording at the moment. I believe I have Mike Clark's cell & will try to relay your fax number to the tower girls. Picked up the 2nd time run sheets, here's the session rundown :

Hey Oakes, Joe was afraid you'd feel sorry for him about his motor woes when we were talking at the Div trailer, then Carpenter & Steward showed up... message from Denny - he's hookin' up Mialki... going to show up with a blue & white 69 Camaro that WILL run 1.5 under. Man I'm glad I'm staying away from G-Ville next week. Up to now I thought the stocker guys were brutal. Between Helms, Wahl, and Summerton, it gets pretty thick (don't listen to anything they say about me....none of it's true). Then Mialki informs me Denny is going, possibly Carpenter too, and I don't have boots deep enough to survive these guys

.

Guess I better shut up and get to work on my damned stocker before everyone shows up at my doorstep

Jim Wahl · 11-30-2008, 01:43 AM

What me? What did I ever say? Now that "Fat Boy Helms" he's go a mouth on him! I've seen sailors walk away shaking their heads. Summerton! He can be just plain cruel! Me? No way. Jim

Brian Oakes · 11-30-2008, 03:44 AM

Hey Gary

Thanks for the update,nice run by Denny, i bet it was at J wt LOL, He has more much more, don't let him fool ya, yes Gary they know the blue bullet is good for 1.40 plus under, i just wish they would drop the index's, so i can run it out with HP Gods looking at it, i wish i was there for Gainesville, i heard Joe didn't hurt the motor, just has too much Oil Pressure, i think he has a good Air Compressor for a oil pump,i'am glad i have 60, Hey ya want to hang with these Guy's ya better have big boots and can wear them and a dam big cooler. they can drink alittle. LOL Thanks Brian

Gary Smith · 11-30-2008, 01:17 PM

Hey Wahl, beyond the logistical short commings of the facility, you really missed a good time. Would have been more fun if you & the Wards were there. But that's okay since Dave Lindsay picked on me all weekend (guess I had to pay for my beer somehow

)
