Yes you sure did, that demo was FUN to watch, my better half had a blast running it in the 4cyl, i hope they do them again as i want to give it a try!

the ponys put on an awesome show in that flagpole! i have a whole new respect for 4 cylinder cars, using part of the 8 to eliminate the backstretch made that a ball to watch!!

Thank you so much for sharing this with us. Sunday, at Crystal, I broke the watts link in my pro stock and I too made a redneck pan hard bar(Thanks to your example). It was good enough to start the race and get the start money. I finally pulled off the track and 3 laps later the feature was over. What can I say, I wanted to race. The car still would swing about an inch and a half. I chained it both ways. It was very loose. I finally decided it wasn't fun to drive. I finished 13th of 20 due to attrition. Pictures coming.

I had to leave the race early, my wife was under the weather when we left home for the track and the dust didn't help her allergies in the least.

Anyway, I never saw Curt get back out on the track, but I can attest that he had some pretty complex and extreme cobbling going on based on his voice mail. I can follow aerospace drawings and make the parts come out to print, but Curt's voice mail lost me after the second mention of back around the axle, then when he threw in a ratchet strap and duct tape I was way confused.

Just kiddin buddy, glad you could get back out there. Sorry I couldn't see you run again.

I might have been entertaining to watch. I was sideways off of two and could finally get it straight half way down the FRONT stretch. It was a hand full, especially since I still only drive with one hand. I think I only passed one or two cars in the feature.
