Sunday Watkins Glen

I can tell you right now, the weekend did not improve for me.  We did dodge the rain for the race, but not the yellow flags.  For the race I started 5th out of 7 cars.  This was a split start, the other group consisted of Indy cars and Indy lights.  I still don't understand what a 2002 indy car is doing in Historic Racing.  So at the start I expected to drop back, but instead I made up a position.  We didn't have more than 2 race laps completed before the yellow flags came out.   A Indy lights car made heavy contract with the wall.  It must have taken 3 or 4 laps to clean up the mess.  When the green flag came out, I started to loose positions.  It was like I was standing still, the engine didn't seem to have the power to keep up.  Within a lap and a half I was dead last and that's where I finishd.  The expected end to a not so good weekend.

With only 3 cars in your class, dead last does get you a third place finish.
