Thanks everyone!!!..it was a long HOT..no F&^%ING HOT day but well worth it i really didn't know we were running for a wally.....I knew the bracket guys got one but didn;t think the T/S guys did!! it is soo cool!!....My dad couldn;t make it Saturday and Summer reprised her role as crew chief and did it perfectly!!..dad made it for eliminations sunday and I am glad he did....it was great to have them both there when i won finally!!.......I also gotta say at the risk of sounding mushy...Animal is one of my heroes and he teched us in Sunday......and whenever we see him he always treats me like an equal not jus t adumb kid tryin to race and that means alot to me so for that Jim Thank You!!...also he told me "Today is yer day"....then before the final he shook my hand and told both TK and i this was a final he'd PAY to see!!.....I had been good on the tree all day and I fumbled a little in the final with a less than stellar .066 light as I was excited and rolled her in a little deep or at least I THINK i did no matter i told myself I was NOT gonna go red...TK tried to mow the tree over on me and went .015 red.. I had to drive it a little bit but saw my win light on at half trak or so.. but I actually thought to myself "that might be the sun glaring off the light" I shoed it through the lights anyway as i didn;t wanna shut it off and have him fly by.....as it turns out tim was red and shut off early.......again this was one of the best days of racing i have ever had and i got to share it with my wife and my dad how great is that?!!...ERIK
I'm everything they say i am......I'm so bad......Baby i don't care!!!
