| I Wound Up Having To Pull Into The North Pits On |
| Lap 5 Because My Rear End Had A Major Loss Of Traction And Was Whipping Around Like All Mad Through All The Turns |

| I Took This One Just Ta Show How |
| Low The Stance Of The Car Was To |
| The Ground. When Driving This Car I Noticed She Handles Alot Like A Formula 500, So It Wasn't Hard To Adjust To Her. |

| Here Is The Left Side For Ya Notice My Crew Members Are |

| A Far Away Shot, I Figured That I |
| Would Take The Oprotunity Of |
| Getting One Judging By The Truck |
| And Trailers Were Gone For That Time. |
| Those Wimps Never Wanna Get Up Early LOL. Actually They "Got Stuck In Traffic" On The Way To The Track. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| This Is The Best Shot I Could Get |
| Of The Interior, Judging By She's Only A Two Seater |
|
| NOTE: Some Of The Sponsors On The Car Are Not Paying Sponsors, They Were Left Over From The Guys We Purchased The Car From |

| Another Pic From The Lineup In The Qualification Race, Bill Had To Walk Off Cuz The Stewards Were Preparing For The Other Racers To Line Up, So They Didn't Want Him On The Grid |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Lining Up For The Grid On The Qualification Race, I Started In 1st In This Qualification, But Wound Up Droping Back Into The 10th Spot. Mainly Bacause The Car Was Getting A Little Tight In The Turns Due To having The Shocks A Little To Hard. |
