Thanks to Jon Bowman and Wayne Denklau
 
I have to publicly thank Wayne Denklau and Jon Bowman. I busted my clutchless trans(that I just purchased). Wayne let me borrow his spare. Then he broke his trans and he borrowed Bichs spare. Then the driveshaft let go in the water and tore up all kinds of s... Including breaking the ears off of Wayne's transmission.( If anyone knows of a DR4 case let me or Wayne know). We were going home but Jon Bowman said my shop is around the corner I have a bunch of parts. So we loaded up and went to his shop. Jon, my son and Jon's nephews put a g force in it and another driveshaft so I could race sat and sun. I couldn't help because when my driveshaft let go two of my fingers got wacked which sent me to the ER. Again a huge thanks to Jon and Wayne without them I wouldn't have got to race this weekend. And to my son Brent who busted his *** all weekend thanks a ton!!!!

Ed, the entire class racing community was pulling for you. And we were all happy to see you make a clean pass, and then get to run eliminations.

You worked hard to make the SS/K race happen.

And you proved two things. In the end, good things happen to good people like you, and that class racers are family, and will step up to help another racer every chance they get.

Ed,
Was glad to see you make a pass and glad the hand was not hurt too bad. Hopefully everything (hand and car) is healed up soon.
This racing family (dysfunctional sometimes! lol) tends to take care of our own most of the time.
Have a safe trip home.
