Is Hagen Gary ok, see he came in contact with the wall?

Looking at the results from 1st round of S/S, it looks like the track lacked traction for many racers. Good luck to all. Dyno

No lack of traction for me. Stood up higher than yesterday with no changes.
People I talked to think it's fine.

Traction was awesome. I unloaded almost immediately. People that didn't make it down the track probably unloaded.

Unless I am mistaken,this was Dennis Oliver's M/S - P/S 4 speed car for a zillion years. No telling how many trips it has taken down a strip.
Was always a very nice, well detailed car.

Yep, I pulled a Ratcliff, no offense Kyle(speaking of, sure do miss that guy on this forum). I Got on the breaks a little to hard trying to feed Cooter some stripe after i missed the tree. Little did i know he was double O and i was finished anyway. I was able to pull it back in and just touched the wall. Car is hurt but I'm fine, besides my ego. Last thing I want to do is get out of shape and I'm ashamed it happened. Could have been much worse, but its nothing a little bodywork and paint won't fix. My opponent Hildalgo Jr, and his dad Jimmy came by and offered to help with the parts. Great people, and I feel terrible knowing I could have caught them up in my mistake.

I'm headed home good luck to everyone still in.

Well I was one win light shy in each car from racing on Sunday. They were in serious hurry up mode trying to get everything finished. They are almost done for the night. We are heading out early in the morning. Good luck to everybody that is still in.
