Also, got in contact with the track. No camping for us Thursday night because we are not doing test-n-tune. Gates open 7am Friday.
Honestly never seen this enforced if it ever was a real rule but who wants to be the test case?

Not us! We found a campground about an hour away we are staying at on Thursday night so it all worked out.

I wish I had known...with my rig gone, you could have stayed at my place. Always welcome on the (squishy) 2 acres of grass but in this case you would have been on the beautiful new asphalt. House is only 45 minutes east of the track.

He had been A since he bought the car but was averaging two motors a race until I think three races ago. Right combination of "good" weather for that car, good co-drivers, good strategy, past fuel stops and good luck. Now both the team and the car are A class.

Any chance I can put on 800 treadwear tires and plead to stay in B?

We did that for the Lebowski Volvo last year. They had accumulated enough Volvo parts cars that they had a whole crapload of 14" and 15" garbage all-seasons in the garage. They raced on them to get rid of them and we put them in B.
But you can bet we'll be checking the tires every time we see the car.

Pro tip: If you're leading the race, don't hop in the judges' favorite car--one that has seen much of their blood and sweat--and get two black flags in 10 minutes, especially if one is for contact that dings up said favorite car.

And not just any judge either. We're talking about the one judge you REALLY don't want to piss off. The one judge who, after ripping a driver's wristband, I've personally heard say (and I quote): "Go hang out with the rest of the douche bags in your fancy club house!"
To clarify, the offending driver TOTALLY had that comment coming... but I digress.

We had about an hour to fill so I asked Owen if he wanted to take the Rambler to the checkered flag. His team had just taken the lead of the race. After his second spin they black flagged his car out of the lead.
