Thanks, but there was also alot of luck involved in getting the podium too. During qualifying the mod cars were much faster than me and I figured I didn't stand a chance against them. All I wanted to do was try to run consistant and finish the race. Well during the main, one car ran out of gas, one did not start and two broke. Also, the track was very slick, the air temperature was only about 62 degrees and breezy. I think this helped to equalize the field a little too. If it had been warmer and the track had more grip I probably would have gotten blown away. Bottom line though was I had fun and didn't have to spend alot of money.

BTW... 3 days of racing in 2 classes at 301 for a total of $35 in track fees!!! Can't beat that!
