    After the TWS Heat

    It was definitely a scorcher. Look forward to the reports from actual racers instead of me, Richard Alastair. But below is my report.

    Results are up on Mylaps. Congrats to Patterson, Kellam and Wirtz for sweeping all 4. Congrats to some new faces on the podium as well.

    Hit an 18 wheeler blowout on the way down Friday evening for my only incident of the weekend that broke a fog light. Made it in time for a good group dinner at Ozona's. Mosty was having a little trouble with a noise from his new brake bling but couldn't find anything wrong. For the first time I crashed at Mustang Ranch and now I'm likely going to look at a mustang this week.

    Turnout was light across the board but our group still started with about 20. When will Nasatx learn that racing in August is going to hurt attendance. Though I still enjoyed hanging in the gaarage.

    Still love the breakfast burrito's with green salsa to help out a small headache-thanks Jerry. Mosty didn't bring his Goody's headache powder and his shoulder issues took over before Race 1. So he spent the rest of the day with a Frank special arm sling with intemittent ice packs held on with orange racer tape. Good race 1 without any drama that I could tell.

    Race 2 had the big one. I'm sure there will be video up soon. But with pictures, texts, and emails swirling yesterday evening some are probably wondering what happened. Glenn was making a pass on the inside of Rob. Glenn's rearend got real loose in front of Rob. As it looked like it might be saved Glenn's car did a super fast 180 which resulted in slamming his right front wheel into the front of Rob's. It's likely the last race for the Yahoo Racing fox body. Extremely unfortunate for both since they were going to Nats.
    Thanks to Todd for the orange slush drinks that turned into margaritas. It was a hot day but everyone was ready to relax and have some fun. Another great dinner at Fuzzie's Taco's with lots of habanero sauce. Then a nice drive back to Plano. Luckily I was looking at my phone when I merged into the other lane and looked up to pass a deer in the lane I was in. So don't know anything about Sunday other than what's on mylaps.
