Don't worry Jack, in enduro racing there is no "driving mistakes"................:rolleyes:
We only experience temporary moments of extreme enduro fever usually accompanied by the growing of horns under your helmet causing drastic short term memory loss followed closely by the paralyzing sounds of bending and twisting metal..................................:eek:

Worked on car for 12 hours on sat. Skinned the door and flattened it out. welded it back together, portapowed roof piller out and qtr panels. Fixed wheel well and am trying now to sraighten the bumper and the rad support. Oh yeah, the right side frames bent! I will most likley cut and reposition the frame with the backhoe and plate it up. Dirt track handleing might not bad but on the asphalt if I dont fix it it wont be worth a dam. Ill be ready for New egypt, my old home town track. You all ready??????:D

Hey Jack, could you hear the announcer (Mark) during the race at all? Everytime you had an incident he would groan and cry, "Get away from my car"! Guess he had one exactly like it at one point in his life. Then when you flipped her on her side, he completely broke out in pimples!!!:lol:

Thats too funny! Icouldnt hear anything but the rubbing of tire on fender, and the echoing of the crunch of metal when I got drilled by someone. Live and learn:)
