RASCAR - Forget DAYTONA, Time fer TEXAS

Well, that was a short one fer me. Bandedo dude sent me to infield wall. First time i blew an engine just from hitting the wall butt first. Thanks a lot for my hans device and the whole grubbat team. I really feel sorry for all the guys. They brought me a car that was pretty good right off the trailer. Also like to thank Eldred, buckwheat, and the whole dodge group for the engine package. Also like to thank my new domesticated partner for the sacrifice that she and the family has made. On a serious note, got to do something bout these freaking summer fleas. The dogs underneath the porch is breeding fleas like there aint no tomorrow and we track them in every time we come into the house. Not just small ones, but great big ones that leaves welps on you when they bite. When I push down on the gas, you can see them jumping. This sucks. . I'm looking forward to reading the discussions on the Daytona race. Wished we had 43 people that would show up to race. I thinks that 23 showed up for Daytona. Time to start practicing for the Texas RASCAR race next week Later, grubbat

Way too many early cautions. I hoped it would be a good race. One thing I don't understand is I pass 4 cars up high and am outside the leader and the 3rd place car decides to make it 3 wide. I had just passed him on the outside so I would think he knew I was there. Really not enough room in the corners at Daytona for that and I got squeezed into the wall. Dave had mentioned at the start that we shouldn't run the low line the whole race, but I can see why people do. -- Mike Grandy www.precision-racing.com "grubbat" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:I%IV8.63267$[email hidden]... > Well, that was a short one fer me.

What surprised me (as a Nascar rookie Brit.) was how fierce the racing was in these early stages. No obvious co-operation or tucking in the draft. I was expecting a settling down period after the initial mayhem, but it never materialised. I was more than happy to be on the lead group and have the leader in site up ahead. There were cars jostling for position in a group of 10 cars or so, ending up 3 wide, Mike in the wall and me wrecked when I hit one of the spinning cars. The practice session was way different with some good co-operation and clean driving. > Dave had mentioned at the start that we shouldn't run the low line > the whole race, but I can see why people do. At one point I had a car on my outside - not close to be called by the spotter so still just behind me. I kept low not wishing to block his run. We must have gone close on a lap like this, eventually he dropped back far enough for me to safely move up. I really wasn't sure if this was the right thing to do or I would be considered blocking by holding the low line. I just felt safer holding my line than moving across him. Views? Tony

the three wide stuff really was ridiculous, this is daytona not talladega, i had to let off lots of times for cars either forcing their way in between me and someone else(ian parker), or just swooping in front of me as i was about to pass(103) "Kyle Roberts" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:F3KV8.49585$[email hidden]...

i'll check what laps they were and let you know probably by tomorrow, it was one or two times where you were low and i was fixin' to pass you outside but then you went high unexpectedly (from my view) and i had to let up

The second car usually has to lift a bit to keep from punting. If the third car in line is close enough, he can take advantage of the second car's momentary lift. I don't think it's done on purpose, but it happens. I got in a couple 3-wide runs near the end. The first time, I was low man, and backed out. Lost 4 spots in the process. We got in another 3-wide situation a couple laps before the final caution, but everyone held their line. I'm glad, because I got stuck in the middle on that one...whew! :-) Eldred -- Homepage - http://www.umich.edu/~epickett Stolen vehicle! - Det,MI 1999 Blk Pontiac Grand Am SE, Lic# 947SLS, VIN:1G2NE12EXXM815898 carjacked from Grnfld/W.

Mike, I think you are talking about the incident where we all got together on the back-straight coming up to turn 3. I agree, I was not expecting that car to do that. It made NO sense whatsoever, and I sure as hell wasn't ready for it. We had two, distinct racing lines running, and running and racing well. I was on the low side (I think I was in the lead) and you were on the outside. Then, for reasons I didn't understand at first, my car got all wobbly on me. At first I thought someone bump-drafted me, but then I saw that car comming up on the inside! This put me in the middle three-wide. Because of the instability, we just barely touched and the rest is history. Again, I'd like to take a moment to apologize for calling you to the trailer on that. You and the car that went 3 wide were both orange, I believe, and I was also going by my position meter. I've been racing you for years, and I should have known better instantly you wouldn't have done that anyway :) -Larry "Mike Grandy" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:CxJV8.111007$[email hidden]... > Way too many early cautions.

Yeah, that 3-wide move by the car on the inside was totally unexpected and out of place. I never expected him to do that under the current conditions. Sure caught me off guard. -Larry "Tony Rickard" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Y_JV8.21784$[email hidden]...

I watched the replay, and _I_ actually sent Bama up into the wall on Lap 15. Is this the incident you are speaking of? If so, that was MY fault, not his. I didn't actually touch him, but either air or warp sent his car around. It was real close. But, since I was the one drifting upwards, I'll take the heat for this one :) -Larry "grubbat" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:1mXV8.67551$[email hidden]... > Sorry bout messing up your name Bamadano.

I was on the brakes a lot too, but I think that's more the fault of the setup/rules package than anything else. I can understand why the real racers don't like this package. It truly sucks! I have actually lost interest in running SS races as much as I used too, with the exception of Coca Cola. That's SS racing the old fashioned way :) -Larry "Ian P" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:ag8uhd$cai$[email hidden]...

There's some stuff called "advantage" that you get from a vet that will absolutely get rid of any fleas on your dogs, and keeps them away for a month or two until you re-apply. As for the ones already indoors, you'll have to get one of those flea bombs. You, your family, and pets will have to leave the house for a day or two though. :-) David G Fisher "grubbat" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:I%IV8.63267$[email hidden]... > Well, that was a short one fer me.

Yeah, I saw that we didn't touch either. That just happens sometimes, and I think it's either air pressure (if that's actually modeled, I'm not sure) or one of us might have had a micro-second warp. Either way, I was the one drifting up and if I hadn't done that it probably wouldn't have happened, so I take the blame for it :) We were completely equal after that because we had identical rear-end damage (see my post about canned-damage). We had our own race going on :) -Larry "Bamadano" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > >I watched the replay, and _I_ actually sent Bama up into the wall on Lap15. > >Is this the incident you are speaking of? > > > >If so, that was MY fault, not his. > > No Larry the incident he was refering to was lap 2.

David is correct. I'd like to add to this... I have two Golden Retrievers (which is pretty obvious if you've seen my car :) ), and while I've had to deal with fleas before (in the old days, on the farm), I haven't seen a flea on my cat or dogs in 10 years, and they don't get any sort of treatments. I found that having a gravel dog-run has ceased every flea problem I've ever had. Anyway, you need to talk to a Vet because you have a multi-faceted problem to deal with, and you have to plan out the cure properly. You are going to have to attack ALL area's of concern at the same time, including: 1. The House. 2. The Grounds outside (They have special sprays for this). 3. The Dogs themselves. 4. This 'under the house' area, which I'm not quite sure I understand. You will probably have to drop the dogs off at the vet for serious baths and special dips. At the same time, the kids should go do some activity somewhere else, and while everyone is away you need to take care of the house, grounds and under-house. It's the ONLY way you will ever take care of this. Doing one or two at a time will not help at all. It has to be hit from ALL sides at the same time to be effective. Again, discuss this with your Vet and set up a PLAN of attack. Fleas can be a real bitch, but you can beat it. -Larry "David G Fisher" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:p41W8.591351$[email hidden]... > There's some stuff called "advantage" that you get from a vet that will > absolutely get rid of any fleas on your dogs, and keeps them away for a > month or two until you re-apply.

Thanks for the support Larry. This is really going to challenge our family, but with the support of the group, I know that we can win this one. Now for my confession. (Standing), "my name is grub, and i have fleas." That wasnt too hard. I guess they were right.....the first step to recovery is admitting that you have a problem. snif grub "Larry (The Other Larry)" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:dZhW8.36311$%%[email hidden]... > David is correct.

I think I was the one that sqeezed you... was this lap 2 or so? Totally my bad. All I can say is I brain-fotted, I guess. I was spending a lot of attention on the car on the inside that was a little warpy. He slowed up I went high to pass and must have forgotten you were up there. My spotter said "car outside" about the time I felt the FF tellin me you were there. I think you left before I had the chance to apologize on the server, so please accept my late apology. If this wasn't you then... uhh, nevermind. Gerald Moore (CG_Moore_Jr #76) ps: the bottom line is preferred for a reason. What is the problem with driving the preferred line? You wouldn't complain about it on any other track would you? "Mike Grandy" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:<CxJV8.111007$[email hidden]>...
