Re: Bone head mistakes
I ran my Max Wedge with one carb once, it was still .1 under! The dumbest thing I've done was when I was a Sportsman bracket racer. I ran out of gas a couple hundred feet away from the finish line and lost the race because of it. I came back to the pits and I was so angry with myself that I threw all my stuff into the car (it was a driver) and hit the road. Then I ran out of gas for real--of course running out of gas enough to lose a race is different from running out of gas on the road. I had to walk a couple of miles to buy a gallon of water then empty it out and fill it up with gas.

Re: Bone head mistakes
The first year VMP had a division race, the ticket booths at the entrance gates had canopies all the way around them that hung out about 2-3 ft.......if you will notice now the canopies have been removed and are no longer on the booths. That first year my enclosed trailer grabbed the corner of the booth and I never noticed it.....until I saw people pointing and screaming.......I was dragging the ticket booth and the person in it ( the booths were on skids ) into the pit area with me.......about 30 ft actually.......money was floating in the booth everywhere and it was 10 degrees from turning over......the lady inside had choice four letter words for me and it was an NHRA ticket booth record on skids that I still hold. My buddy was so embarrassed I didn't see him again until the next day.
