Uh-oh...hey...let's keep things cool.

I don't think Scott was saying he won't be coming back to M10 because of what happened, I got the idea that his time will spent next year on REAL racing with the NSCA.

 

I for one would like to thank Jason and all the others who work really hard to make this event happen. If anyone has ever tried to accomplish this type of event it's a lot of work and time, that they don't get enough appreciation for. NO ONE has control over breakage or accidents. If you have street cars coming out to race you are going to have a few break. You deal with it the best you can and that was what they did. I like the morning events better just cause you have day light to fix things... But this is a great event and I for one look forward to next year. The great thing is no one was hurt and everyone was able to leave safely and in one piece. It's more about meeting new friends and seeing old ones anyway...

 

I read his post as he wont be coming to any more M events because of what happened. And I agree with Brad for the most part, except for that whole firey-crash-in-the-right-lane part.

 

Let's try to play nice... Come on no one wants anyone to wreck.. Trust me on this

 

Right...crashes are BAD. A t-top or two flying off a car on the other hand....now thats just good fun.lol.

 

Hay I tried too liven up the place three time with my "KABOOM act"

 

Definately an award winning performance Jeff

 

first off safety is my first priority,believe me getting into an accident at 145mph is the last thing i need, secondly i am not pissed i didn't get down the track,it was the hour and a half walking around asking harlan,and joe if they knew what the f..k was going to happen. no one had an answer until the event was over. if jason would have just asked the remaining 4 drivers to come up to the tower where he was sitting to ask all of us what we thought then i might have been more understanding about the situation.
sitting in the pits working on preparing the car for the next pass and freezing my a.. off just added to the frustration. i wasn't trying to personally attack jason, he always does a good job organizing these events..

p.s. if you ever get the chance to own and race a 9 second or faster car you'll under stand that a lot of work and time goes into the awsome machines.
di..head!!!

 

Woke me right up... LOL

 

I must admit, that was a heckuva show as I was three car lengths behind and in the left lane watching it unfold before my eyes.. It lifted, rotated, shed the sun screen like a rocket going through reentry, sailed up, then spiraled to the track surface and turned instantly to sparkling gravel. I had a flashback (July 1997, Meridian Road, heading south around a right-hander towards M36) and then involuntarily reached up to check MY T-top even before turning onto the return road.

Kev & Q: Your points are well-taken. Let's all refocus on the positive and start planning M10, eh? I'll be there with my 6-speed equipped, nitroused, Minirammed 385. I'll probably need Scott K's help in assembling a new Moser 12 bolt axle, first.

 

i was taking a break eating a hotdog in the stands when it backfired the first time, you almost knocked the mustard off my dog.

i look forward to next year!

 

Hey, a little credit this way too. I gave you front row seats

 

Hawk didn't grease the track for me
