We were at the reunion with the White/Vangordon A/gas corvette. I watched 2 pairs of Jr fuelers go down the lanes just before our semi final run. They went straight. We took the right lane and went sideways at about 900 ft. Rob Patten drove around. Chris Beane put Patten in the right lane for the final and he went sideways too at about 900 ft. We had run the right lane all weekend and it had been good but it sure went to crap Sunday aftrnoon.
