Tinman Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Well, more like 2 minutes of fame... scratch that... disaster. Competing in my first NASA National Championship race, I got impatient and pulled a bonehead move. Fast forward to 284.30 for my appearance and 286.50 for my embarrassment:lolguy: http://www.speedcasttv.com/nasa/#/races/243 Still pulled off a 5th place finish, should have been a podium:doh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clifford Automotive Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Awesome Man! How was that initial feeling of sliding and spinning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicklz Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Good save at least it wasn't the wall I too hope one day. When I've got the money to dive into something like this or rally america, I have no time. Or vice-versus. Looks like a blast though :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck531 Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 What happened the bump or what you took on the pics on facebook? looks like you had it dented up last week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tinman Posted September 12, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 My plan was to go around the slower classed car on the outside of turn 8 and have an inside line on the silver BMW I had been wearing down into turn 9. Well, I was a little further out there than I intended. The damage pics on my facebook page are from an incident in Friday's qualifying race. I had the pole for that race and blew it too. All in all, an awesome week of racing. I'll be there next year either in Black Betty or something new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xyster101 Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 Still some exciting driving. Glad you and the car are ok. Too bad you were not able to save it. I would love to do wheel to wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
