Usually there is a thread after every race we many folks congratulate others who won, thank those who worked the race, etc. At times, I had thought it gets repetitive and/or casual and sometimes loses its significance. For me, and I would think this applies to any racer, the "thanks" is always there to all of those involved, race coordinators and racers alike, as it is the only way in which we can appease our extraordinarily eccentric obsession.
Last night, the slow motion video for the March BASX class was posted (I was not able to watch the race live). In heat 5 (or I believe it was in heat 5), my car named "Yellow Sun" made an ugly jump in the flat (thought it was leaving the track) and turned in a record-breaking time over 3 seconds. I was just told by another racer that the cause of the jump was the result of a damaged wheel.
Apparently Joel and company suspended the race and replaced the wheel allowing my car to complete the race. I just have to say thanks to those who repaired my car, as well as to those who were live who may have been inconvenienced due to the race delay. This is why I have continued to race here for about 2 years. It is not just racing, but the folks who you race with. I do not want to suggest that the other leagues would not have done the same, but instead, just convey why the NPWDRL is my home for PWD racing.
**** Thanks to all who race at the NPWDRL ****
Now, if I could just stop "Gold Stripe" from wiggling. It was by far my faster BASX car and threw down a time of 2.971x two times (once in a middle lane and once in the outer right lane). It could have been my first ever top 10 car.
