Shit! TJ, thanks for finding those photos but I probably could have done without seeing those!

My week had some UP's and down's...pun intended. Thursday it ran hot as I had never run with the new air dam and just kept cutting the front out until it ran cool. Also had trouble keeping plug wires on. Didn't get a fast lap until Friday qualifying. During Friday's race I had a blast. Ended up 8th right on the rear bumper of Matt Erickson's '05 Mustang (he finished 3rd on Sunday). Saturday was going good with me in around 9th or 10th and I was just planning to hold my position and not make any stupid moves as I was going to end up with a very good starting spot on Sunday. On the white flag lap going into the keyhole...my pedal went to the floor. To make matters worse, I caught the throttle as I had my toe over the pedal getting ready to "heal-toe" for the downshift. I popped Beau Dunnivant in the left rear corner and shot across the gravel. The video sounds like the fronts were locked but without rears, it was pushing pretty hard under acceleration. After we got the body back together we were bleeding the brakes and I heard a "hissing" sound from the rear. Bob Denton #67 CMC crawled under the rear and found brake fluid spraying out the right rear line. Fixed that and had it back on the track for Sunday's Championship race. Started 24th and finished 11th. Was up to 9th but the brakes started fading and I got chicken and backed off losing 2 spots. Very, very happy with my finish after Saturday's incident.

Huge thanks to TJ, his little brother Mikey, Bob, Brian, and Elaine for getting my car back on the track.
