Default Another short clip from vir (spin)

A little spin in the oak tree... pulled off and realized how fast the cars were going by...Wally waved and swerved, then I got a 'talkin to' in the pits. Wally later remarked that there seemed to be a tomato patch slightly off track at the oak tree.

Certainly didn't warrant a talking to that I can see.

Bohlman's talk with you was more like it!

I was waiting for you to do a quick 180 and get back on her. I guess given that location and cars coming down pretty quick driving off and waiting was smart as well!


BTW...you never answered my PM from a few days ago.

you know....that's not the fastest line around oak tree...even multiples of 360 are MUCH better.

Hey Tim, Here's another view from one of us spectators!! You show up at around 3:45 on the video. Jack's running the camera car and I'm in the red C4. It looks closer than it was since we saw the tire smoke and backed off. Must have been a great view from where you were parked!!!
