Great weekend of racing. After finally getting my launch mojo back for today's race, I tried my hardest to catch Sjoblom. While on the front straight, as I shifted from 4th to 5th, I sheared off the upper shifter bolt. No way to continue, so I pulled well off so as not to ruin everyone else's race. I checked everything else on the car last night, but not the shifter.

It was a huge disappointment to hear of the DQ's. Rob and Dave had a great battle.

Many thanks to Dave Donovan for his support - couldn't have done without ya. Same with RP and JB.....great crewing and radio work, guys.

I'm in Primm getting fuel, and continuing on. Safe travels to everyone!!

I have had shifter problems a couple times, I now though bolt it and double nut w locktight on bolt bolts.

Once I had it fall forward in my car and then couldnt reach it. This year while driving Kent's car in the enduro the top bolt fell off, try driving for an hour using just the knub that sticks out. Meanwhile everyone in the pits is making fun of your shifting ability, they can't undrstand why it sound like your shifting a grain truck.

The 2010 CMC National Champ has lexan windows. None of the CMC competitors were notified this driver had them.

Bitter? Calling Bitter, party of one!

Look, that car made weight by a shitpile. Those lexan quarter windows are retardidly heavy with their huge bolts ans steel air scoops, not to mention they're like 3/8 thick. I knew about them and td him to fix it by next event.

I don't know ... I can see Adam's point.

It's kind of like a gutted hood. Probably doesn't amount to much on the track, especially when not even close to making weight.

But it's still a gutted hood.

Very interesting.......

Not sure a Director had to, but...

Make it a party of two.

Ding, ding ding! We have a winner. It changes the contingency $$$ for ALL the drivers. This isn't a regional event - its the NATIONALS.

Bitter?? No. Angry about not being told about it? Yes.

Were you not on the recieving end of a "fix it ticket" at the 2006 Nats? Some issue about your wheels extending out past the fenders. All but 1 of the 23 racers allowed you to race the remainder of the weekend w/ your performance advantage instead of sending you home (since all your wheels were like that).
The difference here is it was not put to a vote by your fellow racers.

So, had you known in advance, would you have sent the guy home?
