This was my first trip to the ET finals and it was a GREAT time. I qualified for the 32 car shootout on Friday (best packages made it in) and made it to the final round before losing to one of my team Lucas Oil team mates that I race every week...he slapped me with a .001 light...and mine was not good enough...I lost on a double breakout. In the main event I went 3 rounds (down to 38 cars) before losing to a guy that won the national championship...everyone was telling me who he was BEFORE I ran him....thanks guys......It didn't effect me, but my car ran just a little off and he had a little better light, no biggie, that's racing. Rd 2 I had another heavy hitter that made the trip to Pomona before, and of course all my buddies had to point out who he was too......that race was fun. I dialed up a few on him, chased him down to the big end and dropped the anchor to break him out . Over all it was a very good weekend!
