    I think so.. I asked Sean after the race (he was driving Dave's car), he didn't remember seeing anything but we both lost the ass end at the exact same spot with no warning. Jay was a couple feet further right (ya know, actually hitting the apex) so I think he missed it.

    Got the motor out and apart last night. Pistons/rings, head, rods and bearings looked good. No signs of detonation, but I could tell from the sparkplug that it wasn't firing. I guess the only thing left is a valve problem, either bent or wasn't sealing properly.

    Sounds like that will be normal for next year. I hear the Fords are going to have to run on 7 cylinders from now on.

    The LS cars already have a one cylinder advantage while the mustangs have to run itty bitty 4.6/5.0 motors.

    We have to, to be able to keep up with headers, all that new technology, and drag the extra weight around.

    Just kidding, had to respond to Bryans's annual lament.
    The LS is very tough to beat in AI.
    I think the foxes are fast because the drivers are good and they know their cars very well
