(Assuming Smith,
Slotten, and Loyet had
problems. Our fastest
time EVER - including
even when I drove other
cars. Tried different
throttle method...wonder
if we would have been in
the 14s if I would have
flat-footed it though? -

3 5 5w Bryon Walters
4 6 15 Scott Hatton
------------------------------------------------
(Had a decent start
coming out of four, but
may have gone too high
and gave Harley too much
room going down front
straight. Opened the
door for everyone else
to get underneath going
into one. Looked like
Hatton and Coos got
together coming out of
two after a lap or two.
I was back far enough to
slide around the
sideways 15 car.)
Lap 3 RED for Bryon
Walters who broke a rear
axle and flipped...Bryon
climbed out of the car
under his own power.
(Was working on getting
back around "Flying"
Bryon and was on the low
side when he piled up in
two. Glad I missed that
too! - JD)

4 4 56 Jason Dull
(Did battle with
Dakoda some at start,
but in the end, looked
like he and Schreffler
were trying to wreck for
2nd in race that didn't
matter. I wasn't close
enough to take
advantage. - JD)

Aaron Fiscus had to
switch to his backup car
Brad Loyet broke a
rear end; Brad and crew
are working to install a
spare obtained from Kurt
Mayhew
(Almost repeat of
Qualifier, ran behind
Shreffler, who was in
"race of their life"
with Fiscus...I guess it
was for their "time
back" though in this
case. I should have
been involved! - JD)

Lap 6 YELLOW for a
stopped Bubba Altig
(JUST had a rhythm going
and seemed like Eric was
leaving enough room for
me to go around the top
- after I battled under
him early to no avail.
Aaron wasn't too far
ahead either. I just
failed to find a way
around right away when
the green came back
out. The #82 was REAL
wide! Eventually got
around, but he passed me
back when the leaders
started lapping us. -
JD)
Ray, Coons, Waelti
Lap 18 YELLOW for
Kuhn in turn 4 (Brad's
steering broke right
when he was trying to
lap me through 4. I saw
out of the corner of my
eye, that his #17 veered
sharply into the outer
wall. He hit head on
right before the
entrance/exit. -JD)
Coons, Ray, Waelti
Lap 24 RED for Waelti
who flips in turn 2
Brandon is out of the
car under his own power

Erfurth
(Other than to Jerry,
we really were not THAT
slow all night...I just
wasn't fast enough.
Early in night, the RR
seemed bouncy again. I
changed the shock before
the feature. Ruined my
race getting stuck
behind Eric early and
then getting lapped.
Gave me no chance to
battle Shreffler and
Mayhew. We should have
run at least 7th or
8th! Very disappointed
in another despicable
run. "Top ten" is nice
and paid ok, but reality
is it did not mean
much. Should have
gained some points on
the #25 car, but might
not matter anyway, as
Jerry is coming! - JD).
