Andy - DOH! I'm sure you have at least 30 of those on tape (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif)

[turbo recap]

My 'issue' - Toasted my C5R motor 10 minutes into the second session on the first day. My money is on a spun cam bearing... (theory is) broke the double roller timing chain when it seized, bent a bunch of valves, probably destroyed a couple pistons... my PTV clearance was already super tight. TONS of metal in the oil. Big chunks. Not bad for a motor that my brother and I built in my garage ~6 years ago... thats *6* race years on that engine. I'm not sad that it went.. just sad that it went when it did. If it was at my local track... would have been even better. I had a bunch (6 to 6.5qts) of oil in there. It was checked just before the session started.

I'll type up a novel sometime later... Riding with Andy, Meeting TB & everyone else... Being a 'pace car' driver in the Foose Mustangs, etc (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/cool.gif)

Total mileage for this excursion was just over 2600 miles.

Thank you Andy for all your hospitality.

I pulled a good samaritan act on the way home... ends up that I'm still an (unintentional) dirty old man. This might explain a lot if you look on the right hand side (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) - I was thankful for all that I had this past week, I figured that I'd share it around.
