I spent too much time breaking in a new motor so I didn't get the practice I really needed to qualify like I normally do. Bad decision.

In the main, I went with a "no pit" strategy. I lead for several laps but lost that lead by being a bit too conservative/an over zealous second place driver. So while in second, and closing fast, with 40 seconds left I ran out of fuel. I should've leaned the new Go Tech 3 port out to 240 degrees. I came in at 218-another bad call. Oh well, that's racing...

Was that Chad driving? If so that wasn't him beating the crap out of it, that was him driving.

I am not so shocked about the TTR. But that motor must of been begging for the race to end before it put the con-rod thru the head!


So bruce,that was why you were shaking your head when I rolled past you as you sat there and marshalled? LOL
