Oh you said more cowbell? Anyway here are some more videos from Beertech's 380, you can see me passing him in these since due to inverted starts and DQ qual times he was given every opportunity by the race officials to excel. Unfortunately the many performance enhancing drugs he takes aren't enough to give him the courage he needs around the Rock's banking. Watch the Roll the Rock #1 Race around 5:53 mark when Travis bangs into him just for being Beertech (Travis is part of the Malt Liquor Tech crew). Something tells me we'll see some payback for that down the road...
Somehow I failed to mention that both Friday night and Sat. morning on the way to and from the track we were forced to go through police checkpoints looking for unlicensed drivers. On Friday night one officer quizzed me while another inspected my vehicle for anything they could write a ticket on. Sat. morning I was feeling a little more cocky so I asked the inbred Barney Fife looking security guard "We got stopped last night at one of these too. Do you all have a big problem with unlicensed drivers in North Carolina?" To which he replied "Yep - sure do".
After following some of the slowest drivers I've ever seen through the North and South versions of the state I think the problem isn't the licensing it is teaching them where the gas pedal is.
If the picture of the toliet didn't make sense that was another prank pulled while we were away from the track. It was positioned in lieu of a passenger seat. The funny part was I didn't notice it until we were almost ready to practice, and I had been at the track for an hour or so.
Also while changing wheels and tires Travis 'accidently' sat on my open hood causing it to shut partially on my hand. That hurt pretty bad, but not enough to take me out (like he had planned). Everyone agreed that was a stupid place for me to put my hand.
