Red Bear, thanks for making that point! Maybe the person who qualifies should be required to start the enduro. Unfortunate ending, glad that everyone was OK!

Very unfortunate end tot he weekend but Jr. driver car #99 has a bright future in racing and father is very proud!!!!

Not sure that is accurate based on the video of the car next to the red car.

Can't make memories that will be more cherished than what you see in that picture with your son. I had a similar experience at Daytona with my son with my 15 Cup, never forget it.

He knocked it out of the park on his second race ever and 5th time in the Cup Car, He had only driven Road Atlanta once several years back for a De also. He was fast in all conditions Rain, Damp and Dry and was great to be there watching. I thought that starting P2 would put us ahead of the usual mayhem of race starts and frankly did not anticipate getting punted. Not sure the reason for the weaving but at the end of the day, it all doesn't matter because we were knocked out. I was looking forward to our second win as father and son. We ..(.he) killed it at Road America in his first race and gave me the best 60th BDay gift a dad could ask for. We are trying to determine full extent of damage and costs and see where we go from here. If there are bumpers and fenders out there for sale, let me know.

The pic was from our Road America Enduro finish. Doesn't get better than this......




Happy 60th Birthday Dad!!!
Steve that is a great photo from Road America. As always great chatting with you at the track this weekend. Your son drove really well all weekend with the mixed conditions we had. Looking forward to seeing you at Sebring next year.

Great talking with you also! Was fun to watch him get around in the wet conditions. It was his first time in the rain also! Hopefully we will see you at Sebring after a long wither up North!
