drivers fell risk top
The drivers are so close, you'll have to take a risk. I was in the top five, fell out, and I want to get back in.
area came car chart courses fast good help improve information john learned needed process race road speed squad throw worked
It was a really good day. The road courses are an area we needed to improve on. John Dick and the Delphi squad really worked hard. We came here with the thought process that we don't race here, so being fast on the speed chart here really isn't that important, but let's throw different things at that car that may not even help the car here but give us good information for the other tracks. To be pretty competitive and still feel like we learned a lot, we're really pleased.
cars exciting fans field levels neat playing reinvent series time
It's a neat series and a pretty even playing field because the crews don't have a lot of time to reinvent the wheel. The cars are a little tail-happy and there are varying levels of (driver) talent, so it makes it exciting for the fans to watch.
ball barometer bit defense few good inside missed shoots shot shots tendency
This was a good barometer for us. Pella shoots the ball a lot better than it shot (Tuesday) too, and I'd like to think our defense had a little bit to do with that. They missed a few shots inside and they have a tendency to snowball on you.
came couple great memories races won
I came back a couple other times in SCCA races, and in 1991 and 1993 I was here in Trans-Am races, and I won them both, ... But those races I won were in more of a sedan-type car. I have great memories of this track.

I saw the green car go big-time up in the air, and I went, 'Whoa!
car clip dug fine forced front inside marbles onto outside prototype ripped road slow turn
I was forced to go around the outside of the kink in Turn 4 because a slow (Daytona) Prototype car was on the inside of the track. With all the marbles out there, the car just slid right off the road onto the grass, which would have been fine but unfortunately there were a lot of undulations and pits out there. The front splitter just dug into one of those and it ripped the front clip of the car off.
car charged good last running top
multi-pack running, there were times when the car was really good and I charged into the top five, but it just wouldn't last for long and would go off.
