Thanks. On Saturday morning I earned timed pole(even faster than Malloy, a great guy). The clutch went, so my mechanic and Randy Begin, volunteer mechanic thrashed for 6 hours to rip the car apart and get it ready. Huge thanks Randy! He was smiling like a guy on a date with a supermodel. I missed the qualifying race Sat afternoon.

Sunday they started me at the back of the grid. It wasn't feeling quite right, but I was passing by the handful. It started clunking and sliding so I took it in, to find a broken side plate on the tranny, and a loose half shaft. My car is sprung at 2200 lbs/inch because of the downforce. On the huge surface transitions it was getting air, and having massive driveline loads when the slicks hit. That's racing.
