Bernie drove clean for 2 ½ hours. Vincent’s in the car now with 1 hour to go. Currently Dorifto Dog holds the lead by several laps. The car is holding ok. Some issues, but nothing to do at this time but drive. Latest numbers aren’t yet posted. One hour, guys. One hour!

Isn't there a little bit of irony in this statement.

Jay Lamb and one of the judges told the guys personally that they had never had back to back wins, and wouldn’t for at least a couple more years. He said Dorifto Dogs could kiss their a$$ goodbye in the next race.

So, what’s the plan? More news in the future. Today, savor the win!

Not 100% sure, but I think they're planning on a pull-behind trailer for the E30 to hold Vincent's head 'cause it's sooooo swollen.

:D


They're already planning on getting "LeMons South Spring 2009 Winner" embroidered on their race suits.......Seriously..... :wink:
