I'm fine beforehand but can't sleep at all after it's all over and I'm home after the drive.......too wound up and caffeined out. So I clean up the car and the track wheels, change the oil, then go to bed and lay there with eyes wide open......

But then I'm usually on the couch by mid-morning (if I'm not getting tires done); thank god for retirement

Where did the poop go? It's racing magic!
The poop usually manifests as I drive like sh*t!! It's like it traverses my butthole and comes out my hands in my driving

I brought it a few notches down, Paul kicked it a few notches further down. If we can just get Coochas on board we can really find rock bottom.

I thought that's the reason for the bar at the Seneca lodge?... I sleep like a baby the night before DE, With the assistance of Jack Daniels.. Its not the night before.. its 2 nights before, because you're loading everything up packing, loading the trailer and thinking... What did I forget? Did I remember to put the brake pads in the trailer? Rotors?. Duct tape? , Tie wire? Helmet? Gloves? Fuel Jugs? Spare Tires? oh wait.. The cooler.. Gonna have to get some ice.. Crap.. Forgot the pretzels.. On... and on..
