Well after FourBlades and I endeavored to finish our 914 for Chumpcar this year, we came up a little short. Just plain ran out of time.
Anyhow, I got a call last week from a guy that got my name from the team I drove with last year. He needed a fourth driver, and I offered it to FourBlades first, but he couldn't make it. The guy called me back yesterday pleading with me to drive, so I did. Today has been awesome. Other than a shock bolt coming loose, we've had no issues to speak of, and out of 96 cars, we're currently 17th with 3.5 hours to go. Unfortunately the car is a BMW 325... hopefully I'm not ostracized for that! Pictures and video to follow. |

Thanks guys. No taps, as far as I'm aware of. I never made contact with anyone in either of my stints.
Actually, I can't understand why Chumpcars get beat up like they do. I don't see any reason why most people shouldn't be able to drive a stint without hitting something. There's always just "racing incidents" but I've never felt like I was making a move that I didn't telegraph to the guy in front, giving him plenty of time to know that I was there. |
