Lonny would remember

Wonder if it was the same guy ...lol
Quaid is still the owner of Comp and as far as I know he always was. He actually bought a touring car so we can run some rubber tire, that will be a hoot. We were finally able to clean the carpet out enough and put in the laps to get the groove back up, so it will be fun.

The explaination I got about the three-race tire thing was that the decision to have dry sandy dirt was based on some kind of "we aren't learning anything about chassis development here" argument. The slicks were so grippy that we mainly fought traction rolling and anything that was good on that wasn't much scratch anywhere else, so something happened and the track was dried out, I think sand was added, and now it takes no grove at all and burns tires like you wouldn't believe. Oh well, doesn't bother me anymore, that's why I run on the other side of the drivers stand.
