Ok Race fans this is REAL race report! :angry-tappingfoot:
First, we had to drive in at least 100 miles of construction. 55 MPR seeing nothing but orange barrels! Then 4 gas stations and no one sells the cigarette brand that I smoke! :angry-tappingfoot:
We finally make to Butch's place, to find out the track we should have ran on was in the other room not even put together. He had a nice spread of food for us :mrgreen: but since we ran 3 man teams,there was no time to eat! With that being said no breaks meant, No smoking. :doh: Mike & I need that fresh nicotine air! The only air was a$$ gas from the beans Butch served! :D . I asked to have Pepsi on hand,Butch had 12. So I had to ration.mean while there was plenty of that Red & white Ohio st. color soft drink! We had to marshal and pit, sitting on these hard wooden stools. I think I have Hemorrhoids!!! :o .it was 95 degrees with 100% humidity. The track had 2 yellow lanes. They said 1 was orange, on the monitor, it recorded under red. The NEW timing system counted 2 laps for the Cincy teams & 1 for Michigan teams! :naughty:
Now how can any team race under these conditions!!! (all set up by the OHIO boys)
No really, nice track, nice place,GREAT host,GREAT race,GREAT food, GREAT time,but mostly GREAT friends!!! So I put out the challenge to Butch. Next year we race a 6 hr race at his place and 6 hr race at the Cloverleaf store, and combined the laps together. Thanks Butch & the Cincy boys.
Your favorite Pain! Rob. See you soon. :dance:
