It truly is an emotional roller coaster and words really can't explain it, you have to experience it. I'm going to guess Jeremy and John are hooked now.

Congrats on your 3rd place, problem is its exponentially harder to move up from here :stick:

Thanks for that Jason. You and I had a good run out there together. I'll have some video of you after you passed me as we had the camera rolling also.

no problem, great racing with you guys! how you guys manage to turn in such consistent performances time after time is beyond me.

Vincent,

Are there anymore night shots? I brought my stuff to do pics, but I was just to tied to mess with it, plus I had to try to get some kind of sleep before my 4:30-6:00am driving slot.

I didn't get any sleep before I drove so why should you? :P Of course I went 'farming' twice so maybe that was the reason? Actually I was blinded by my own mirrors and once I corrected that issue I did just fine at night.

I got that pic from the Chump forum. I'll let you know if this guy posts any other shots like that.

He (not Bernie driving) was blocking us while us and Team Simon were running 2nd - 3rd on the same lap. If you're 50 laps down...get out of the way for the leaders. Trust me, I pointed that damn Probe by about 50 times at PBIR since he was the leader and we were over 100 laps down. Common courtesy IMO.
