Re: Live from THE ROCK
Man! Rough crowd! In the 1/4's, I was .003 dead-on 1, Emily Stott-Volkman was .010 dead-on zero, and Mike Boyles was .000 dead-on 1! Emily proceeded to go .000 against a red-lighting Jake Sealey, and I survived a tough race with Boyles to set up a final round match with Emily and I. We were suiting up when the rumble and lightning hit (down the road). They unplugged everything, then you could see the rain coming up the track. I think we've just got SS and SR finals left to run. It's just a little cell, but it's really windy and coming down hard. Can't imagine drying for two pairs... Maybe finish at Darlington in 2 weeks? Dunno, haven't heard yet.
Mmm! More buckets of rain....! Couple big rumbles, too. Congrats to stock semi Charles Myers. Finalist's Terry Taylor and Marvin Strickland |

Re: Live from THE ROCK
See Ya'll in Darlington. Hope that Emily and Michael get to run, but I know her husband is entered in Indy.

Re: Live from THE ROCK
It may have happened before, but I don't recall seeing one Pro-Am event needing three different weekends in three different months at two different tracks to be completed. That's really stretching it out!

Re: Live from THE ROCK
Only 1 track, but VMP in 2002 took 4-5 tries! Eddie Bolton was glad he kept going back. :p

Another abysmal showing at the track this weekend!:( But all was not lost - Michael Beard applied the graphics to the 'wagon, and it turned out even better than I hoped for! The car really looks like a "race car" now, and maybe some day it'll start ACTING like one! :o Thanks, Michael for cheering me up. And thanks also to Charles Myers and his Dad for their hospitality, it was very much appreciated. Hopefully I'll be back out again soon with somewhat better results.
I got a chance to get the camera out of the bag during the first time-trials, here a few pictures. Lew |

...........And a few more...........
The last picture is my 'wagon in front of the statue of Iron Mike at Fort Bragg, my spiritual center. HOORAH! Lew (1SG U.S. Army, Retired) |
Re: Live from THE ROCK
Lew, What's going on with your car? What's it doing or not doing?
There's plenty of help available right here... |
