When Boone made it to the lanes, he did a quick count back and realized he couldn't get up to Harrison, but if he could get the black 55 to let one car around him, they would be paired. He discussed it with both Chisholm, and the driver of a yellow-gold 70 Skylark directly behind him at thought he had it all worked out when the negotiations hit an unexpected snag.
"Ok, so I had him pull forward, if you can just pull around him and we'll be all set!" Boone explained to the Buick driver.
"Nope! If you want to race each other he has to pull over! This car has a spool, and I'm not driving around!"
"His car has a spool, my truck has a spool, what's the big deal?"
"Look, you want to do this, so get him to pull over, I'm not moving out of this lane!"
Boone walked up to explain it to Dan in the 55.
"You're kidding! How does he get in and out of gas stations?" He laughed, "Alright, I'll pull over in your lane and let him drive by!"
