Finally started inside the top 10 so that was good. Started 8th and made it all the way up to 8th. I have got to find some SPEED. I never worked so hard to not gain a spot. 30 laps caution free again this week.

Scott,

Sorry about the working hard. Good thing that you didn't lose your starting spot. 30 laps, caution free; Rough deal.
Good Job!!!

Thanks Steve.
I was helped some by a first lap pile-up though, I can't take all the credit

Take a little luck where you can find it. At least you weren't the first lap wreck. ;)

Crappy night due to driver preparation.
Didnt nut and bolt the car til after 1:00 Saturday and found a bent lower A Arm, toe out was 1.5" inches.
Adjusted the toe and ran it.
7th in the heat, made some adjustments, 11th in the Main.

Big weekend ahead, so will be giving it the fine tooth comb treatment.

Congratulations Ethan and DJ, 1st and 3rd last night.
Good job Ross boys

Lost the driveshaft after 1 lap. Center broke out of the adapter...was hoping it was just the nut falling off.
Ripped off the brake lines and oil lines. Some work to do in the morning, then off to try it again!
Not s good start to the 3 day weekend

Thought perhaps you stayed around to see how everyone else did tonight.

Finished 2nd in my heat and started on pole with Ethan for feature.  Was running side-by-side with Ethan for a few laps, fell back to third and was running a solid third, when got slightly loose off turn 4 and may have gotten some assistance ending up spun out in infield.  Restarted and finished near back of pack.  Track was quite rough, but car came home in one piece and overall was a much better night than a week ago.  ;D

See above.
Made it 3/4 of  a lap. Finished 25th in a 28 car field.
All the threads are stripped off the output shaft now.
Going to skip tomorrow at Angell Park...this weekend sucked enough, not going to rush an engine swap and screw something up
