Well, that didn't go quite the way we anticipated. Friday night were heats and a Race of Champions. We made it through the heat and used it to play with the set-up of the car. During the Race of Champions the set-up didn't work and we ended up blowing out a right-rear tire. Saturday morning, a lot more broken bits were discovered. After spending the day repairing the car and banging the body back into shape, we went with a lot more conservative set-up which worked on the dry-slick track. Unfortunately, during a bit of a tussle for real estate, we broke a tie rod ending our night early. Despite our disappointment, there was some great racing action from the pro stocks. The 55 schooled the field ,but the 3D and 72 had a great battle for second and the majority of the field was competitive.
We're taking a little break through December to give the car a detailed going over and fix, repair, and freshen things up. See you in the new year!

| This kind of thing can make for a rough weekend |

| At least we looked good while we were out there. This is post blow-out. Looks pretty good, doesn't it? Amazing what some rivets, hammers, and elbow grease will do. |
