    This track should be well suited for F1600 cars - some long straights should produce a great race. And, I hear you can see a lot of the track from a viewing area near turn 1.

    Load in Wednesday PM, testing Thursday, practice Friday, races Sat and Sun - who's ready?

    What's the story on all the DNFs?
    Hope everybody is ok and can get fixed for the races tomorrow.

    Someone did a superman over one of the cars behind me and landed on my rear right side. The guys are still working on mine but hopefully we will be back tomorrow. One out of the other two I don't think will make it out.

    Big thank you out to my team for working their azz off to try to get me back out tomorrow.

    The results show 7 DNFs. Were they all from this one incident?

    No, there were several incidents. Steve's incident was only three cars.

    Watching an accident catapult a car into Steve from behind was...interesting.

    The word I got was that Foster was tagged from behind on the initial pace lap and bent some suspension.

    My wife had surgery last week and leaving her for 5 days wasn't a choice. She came thru it well and has been given a clean bill of health, so I'll see you all in NJ.
