Infineon Raceway
8th Place at Sonoma!
Yea! *applause* Great job guys, well done! Must feel good to be back up where you belong! Unfortunately, Elliott was not voted in on Fanscan, so I didn’t get to hear how the communication but I’m sure it was a lot happier and smoother. You’ve turned the corner at last last. Go you!
Well, I found out that I will be continuing to watch races on Trackpass until August *grr*, but it still interesting. For instance today watching the various drivers tackle Turn 11. Drivers like Tony Stewart and Robby Gordon would stop accelerating and brake hard halfway down the stretch going into the turn. They wouldn’t brake at all in the turn itself and then power out. Guys like Elliott and Jr. would basically keep their foot on the gas and the brake through the turn. Thing is, Trackpass doesn’t show who is downshifting to help steer, so now I just want more data. *chuckle*
Though one of my friends did find it amusing how the #38 spent at least the last ½ to 1/3 of the race in the top ten and was barely mentioned. PRM talked to him during a caution and other than that? Two sentences: “Oh, I feel should mention Elliott Sadler running in the top 10 right now. He’s actually got a good record on road courses. Kyle Busch…” Apparently the TV coverage was even less. I’m beginning to think there a cloaking device on his car that engages whenever he is running in the top 15. *chuckle* Silly Season never ends, but maybe this will redirect the focus away from the 38 for a while.
But an interesting race altogether, long green flag runs sandwhiched in between a smattering of yellow and two reds. Very entertaining.
But this was just a quick note, I’ll write more about such fun topics such as the wiretap review and the Bush administration’s short memory tomorrow and who know, maybe I’ll throw in something fun.
