Unfortunately Scott did not make it because of trouble with his tow vehicle. He would surely have won, Bud, as I had major braking issues and raced with mostly just rear brakes. I did finish the race though, after some scary moments. One car class is no fun, I hope many show up for topeka.

So Matt did the Master Cly fail or are you having issues with the prop valve? Pretty decent lap times for not having front brakes.

Yep - the van is going to Midway Ford tonight. It is pinging under load - which is not at all normal for it. So I stayed home because the last thing I need is a V10 with self ejecting spark plugs. This has just not been my year.

Thanks for the compliment Scott. The pedal was soft the entire time and I am not sure what the cause was but it happened because I replaced the pads. I pushed the piston back to fit the new pads and did not open the system. After I attempted to bed the pads in qual for 8 laps I pulled off and bled the system but not change. The rears were locking and I spun 2 times in the race. I will rebuild the calipers and master and see what happens. I want it to be ready for topeka.

A good time and turnout at MAM, and IT put on a good show as always. Eleven ITA cars!

I was working at turn 1 on Sunday and I have to say I was impressed with your spin there in the race. How you managed to spin in the middle of the track in the brake zone/turn in for turn one right in front of three cars and drive away without any body damage astounded me. Did you get those three a beer afterwards for their very nice bit of evasive driving?
