Good run there Grub... congrats!

16 cautions for 58 laps... that sounds a lot worse than it was, IMO. Also,
from what I saw people seem to be getting the hang of not running into an
incident or eachother in response to an incident --> result!! <g>

Now all I gotta do is convince them not to run into eachother to start an
incident in the first place... easy! ;-)

On a more serious note: Don Dodge and Oliver Day need to delete the
"[1]"-bit from the carfile they're using. It's just something racesimcentral
seems to introduce when a car is downloaded from the forum and needs to be
removed in order to conform to the posted carset(s) on the RASCAR site.

Grub, you and Huggins were the class of the field the last quarter of the
race.
I tried several passes and never had a chance.
I believe it was around lap 110 or so, I was too worried about the 43 to try
anything serious, so I gave up trying to pass (as if I could have anyway)
I would have loved to see it go green to the end tho',  I think everyone in
the top five had some serious driving to do to keep their spot.

I agree with whomever said there were more cautions than it seemed, I am
still puckerin' from the last five laps.

At one point, me, Larry and Ginger went three wide thru turn 4 and we
all escaped with our lives. It just proves that racing side-by-side
in this sim is possible if everyone just slows down a little for the
turns and conisders the possibility of warp.

And you get lucky that no one does happen to warp when you are going through
three wide.

Not a good day for the Cartoon Network Chevy either. Running in the top 10
most of the race, made it to 3rd and got hit in the back, rolled over a
couple of times. Engine never got back up to speed after that. I think I
finished 15th. There was alot of good racing going on, I enjoyed it. Looking
forward to Pocono next Sat.

Knowing that track position was everything (and it was) I had no intentions
of pitting until I needed Gas.

But around Lap 50 my front end started skating, so at the next yellow I went
ahead and pitted.

That put me back in around 18th place.  It took me forever to get back near
the front.  Even though I was a lot faster than other cars, it was a real
*** to pass there.

I'll take a 5th place, no incident finish, especially since this is the best
I've done at a flat track so far.  I normally hate the things.

On to Pocono, the bane of my racing existance.

There was one car that was slower than me that I wanted to pass, but kept
chopping my nose off whenever I tried.  It was really pissing me off but I
kept my cool and didn't retaliate :)  I finally got around but I really had
to chew up some *** to do it.

I don't remember the car and it doesn't really matter.

Though I think I got the shit-end of the stick on that one LOL!

A dropped valve is a 'canned' response by the Sim when you go on your lid,
which makes it even more frustrating when you roll doing 3mph, which has
happened to me :)
