Sometimes missing a race pays off

My head hasn’t been on racing since my transmission brake screwed me a month ago. Car is still up in the air from what used to be a 3 hour job max hopefully trying to find the issue with changing the transmission. So when I lost my water last Friday morning and knew it was going to be an expensive pump change I sold my entry to Norwalks 20,000-40,000-20,000 dollar race weekend to my son. Number one the money came in handy, two I got a bad case of the bla’s, three after sitting most of the year I wanted him to race. Again a one time trial weekend he ran a 6.42 and hours later and in 1100 foot worse air he won dialed a 6.44. With some rain and then losing the power and buybacks when I went to bed at 11:45 he hadn’t run 2nd round yet. When he finally did race the carb acted up. They finished 3rd round at 3am and will finish that race maybe after todays race. This morning the carb still wasn’t right and the car ran a I think what would have been a 6.46 if he stayed in it. So he rebuilt the carb while it rained again and then a wreck so at 4pm he’s in the lanes for the buyback round. I’m glad I’m at home. Lol. Bader on Friday added 10,000.00 more to Fridays program on an already sold out race.
