Thanks.
My first win with the Grubbat dodge. Practice went very well for the
dodge team but the track changed during qualifing and grub believed that he
left some on the table.
As usual, Ginger laid down some good laps at the start of the race and
almost lapped the grubbat dodge but were saved by the first yellow flag. We
brought the ole girl in for some much needed adjustements and went back out
to ride around with Joon. That second long run had the grubbat dodge picking
off spots in the lineup and at the next to last yellow, we were sittin
pretty at 5th place.
The studmonky didnt have anything better to do, so unbeknowest to me,
rode shotgun for what would be the most exciting spot in the house. At the
next to the last yellow, the grubbat dodge team decided to take 2 tires and
gain track position with only 11 laps to go. While going down pit road, grub
noticed that ginger didnt pit and changed pit strategy to 4 tires only, no
air pressure adjustment. Leaving pit road ahead of davegf and mitch proved
critical. At the restart, with only 10 to go, a bunch-up at the s/f line
allowed the grubbat dodge to gain precious positions and come out of turn 2
in third place with daveGF hot on the grubs rear. Man were those 4 tires
hooking up, because the grubbat dodge was eating at kyleroberts bumper. At
one point, the grub had to brake to keep from rolling through the corner too
fast and hit kyle, and almost allowed daveGF the perfect opprotunity to
stick his nose underneath. This was not the case as the grub accelerated
high through the corner and closed that door only to close in on Kyleroberts
rear again.
Grub radioed in that Ginger was getting loose on the exits and grub knew
that the time was near for the passover. Unforturely, ginger got loose and
partical contact was made with Kyleroberts and a 'bump and run' turned into
a yellow flag with only 4 laps to go! Not satisified with second, grub
established radio contact with kyleroberts and suggested that he pit.
Kyleroberts attempted to pit, then coming to his senses, attempted to enter
the track again, and then, wham, pile drove the pit entrance wall right in
the middle of his radiator ending his day. The grubbat dodge rolled accross
the s/f under yellow with their first win and studmonkey was going
absolutely beserk in the backseat watching the whole thing live.
grub tired of typing. See yall next week.
