I was starting to doubt that I would finish this race. I got hit hard in the back on the first yellow. I was well pass the accident and well off the throttle, slowing down. No problem, all happy that I did not get collected. The driver behind me was well past the accident. However, he must have thought he was in a shootout. He started racing and ran into the back of me like a sidewinder missle. I went ass over tea kettle. My rear end was highlighted in red. This was only his second stock car race. His first race was a shootout. Go figure! I got to pass alot cars tonight. It seems that this track eats tires on long green runs. I was taking it easy on entry and trying to be smooth coming out. It was working well as I was able to go underneath a lot of cars and make my pass. I was bumped from behind a couple times. I sawed it once, but not the second time. Finally I blew my engine with a brain fart. I was in 3rd gear, intending to shift to 4th. Instead, I shifted to 2nd. Good bye engine, thanks for playing. Damn sequential shifters. I ran 72 laps, of which 69 were good. It was fun!
