Thanks Evan.

Larry, we are okay. I do appreciate your concern. They were putting to much water down, and the run before me dragged water halfway to the starting line. I moved over to do the burnout and did not get back in the grove on the starting line. The car went to the center line, I stayed with it as long as I could. I was staring right at Grace Howell's door and the center line, and I new I had to lift, I probably stayed into it longer then I should have.

This is my last post from Gainesville, I had great time and can't wait until the next race. I hope everyone enjoyed the updates and pictures. The weather has been great and although the economy is not doing well, you would have never known it by looking in the parking lot. The track is full of fans. The camp sites are full and people are having a good time.

Here in Bridgeport, Ct. it was in the mid 40's on Friday, and today, it is supposed to be in the low 50's. The first day of spring is this coming Friday, and it is beginning to feel like it.

Tom, Ed does not smoke anymore. But I'm sure he was the reason for the sub 50 mpg.

Day is over, it was a warm day for racing, but I'm not complaining. The temp went to 86 and the altitude was 2500ft at is worst.

Stock is first out tomorrow, 8 am. It will be tough dial, but we are all in the same boat. Super Stock class is right after us.

This was Billy after calculating the mpg.He was babbling something about me bringing too much baggage.
