That is one heck of an endorsement from the boss. With equipment and commitment like that it has to get better from here on out.
I was always “ho-hum” about road-course racing even though Leguna Seca was (literally) in my back yard for many years. This year it “clicked” w/me - I loved the different challenges, the bumping and thump’n, (”dive-bombing”, is that a new NASCAR word?) and I’d love to get back to Sonoma too. Mrs. Happydog says we can go next year, Lord willing.
Riverside which used to be in S Cal was part road course and was always fun racing. Of course they needed another shopping center there and tore it down which was a huge mistake.
It was going to be such a good finish for Jr - and then someone else makes a dumb move and we all felt like someone stuck a pin in us and we all deflated.
AND, lookie what the spotters up on the hill had to put up with!!
