Unfortunatly I turned on the big red bulb! Bummer, I'm still happy with the result though. It was hot and the track was slick. I dialed a 10.93 and every car I raced was slower, I would catch them and fender race the stripe. I was trying to fire myself up in the final and cut a good light, woops. Last round loser is better than first round loser any day I say. I've never made it to the final round before, missed my big chance at a beer can trophy.

Good job!When I lose it's usually caused by shooting myself in the foot with a red light. SteveW
