Glenn damaged his trans in morning qualifying. I'd heard he headed home to change it. So then he makes it back to the track in time and wins the race?? Sweet.

IT7 - Sheppard, Patullo, Swan

Dan comprehensively destroyed his blue IT7 car last weekend at a hillclimb (Tree, 1; DS, zip). Instead of licking his wounds and moping like I would have done, he called Faita and Patullo and literally dug out a flood-damaged race car from the dirt outside their shop and swapped out all the damn parts from his blue car. In 5 days. And then wins the race.

Sweet.

Andy's running at the higher June 1 weight...that car needs 100 more pounds!!!

(Just kidding...no really, just kidding. Really. Mostly)

Not any more. Worked tech for school/test day and first half of today, came home to Reality for the rest of the weekend. - GA

I am sure someone else will elaborate more but an integra was badly damaged today

Oh and I made a big mistake going into turn one of the ITR, ITS, ITB group in 4th overall which could have been very ugly! I missed a shift and instantly locked up the rear tires at the entrance to the oval. somehow I saved the car from spinning and I kept it out of the wall all while everyone played nice with heads up driving. Just wanted to publicly thank everyone for that! I think only one driver was upset with me. I will certainly post up video when the weekend is over!

... yes indeed... input shaft snapped on qualifying lap 1 ...
home is about 25 minutes away ... up on the lift ... swapped in
another transmission in 1.5hr ... back on the trailer ... back to
the track in time to change tires, get dressed, start from the back

We have 4 in our crew this weekend (including drivers) so Dick
and I did the transmission swap, while Bob Blake and Bob Bruce
stayed behind so Blake could qualify on the front row in STL,
then go onto to lead the first third of the group 7 race before
Tyler Munroe's ITR/STU E36 took the race lead, but Bob still got
the STL checker

The two cars (14 and 82) look good in the garage with a flag on
each windshield
