Sean,
Did they show me coming off the car with the fuel hoses ?? I came off the car and was blinded by the camera lights.. I wasnt sure if it would make it to TV or not. They came by later during the race and asked Chris what happened on camera. It sucked. I had to RIG a vent line fitting at Ohio (Sean helped me) and it came back to bite us at Daytona. The support truck that runs around to each event (BSR) didnt have what I needed to make the fuel rig 100% legal for Grand Am. They let us slide for Fontana... and the team didnt do anything about it in between rounds... B |

they showed you standing there trying and trying to get fuel in ... seemed like a looooong stop. They cut away before the end of it.

Fuel sloshed up into the vent line and blocked it when I jumped the wall and tried to fuel the car. I made DAMN sure there was none in the line prior to the fuel stop. It sloshed into the line when I started yanking on everything.
DAMN. I need to see the race. B |
