last race of the season ,it was around 38-40 degrees around 7:30pm so i went into the lights without my water pump and fan on since the motor was ice cold, only to puke water on the starting line and lose in the semifinals.and then redlit to boot on a protree.

Ok with my antics yesterday at the chassis cert, I want to know how many other people have had dumb or stupid things done in front of others, minor, major, and ones needing witness relocation. John



Were you at Atlanta dragway yesterday for the cert? My brother told me last night that they told everyone in line to have the car ready to come out of the trailer,so he takes his straps off and keeps moving up in line.The car hit the generator box and crushed it and took some fiberglass off the bumper.

running late & my class was on the track. drove off from my pit straight thru prestage all the way thru to the water trough. starter puts his hand up to stop me, walks around the back of the car then opens my door & passes me my battery charger. it looked kinda second hand with all the scratched paint n all but still worked. the charger is now on the checklist d'oh!.

I went to drive up on my trailer without checking the hitch and it made for a pretty funny site with the front of the trailer up in the air! lol

My favorite is coming off transbreak switch to put my hand on steering wheel and bumping shifter into neutral so when delay box goes off I'am in reverse.
