I called and asked him if i still felt like crap if he wanted to drive he said he would be honered. I got to the track this morning and jimmy asled me how i felt i said like shit but if your busy with nicks car and have alot going on ill drive but i realy dont fell like it . I said i know how much you like racing and you are a very good driver id rather somebody be in the car that wants to win rather then me because i just want to go to bed lol. I knew the car had a chance to win and i wanted to give it that chance which wouldnt have happened with me today i felt like crap. I have never broke a axle or red lighted and i did both in the spring when i had the flu at import show down. I thought man im not going through that again. If it wasnt for promising to take my son to the track and telling him we might get a trophy (wich he decided he had to have the big one kids lol) i probably wouldnt have came today so thanks jj for making all that possible. I havnt had the honor of working with jj much being that we both have our own shop and our own stuff going own but today was like you had none somebody for years he didnt act like he knew everything or like ive been driving driving for ten years dont tell me anything lol. He was realy a nice guy to work with just like saying i drive the car faster yes i normaly run 12.3 in it but on alot colder day then today he did a great job and realy was a nice guy to work with not a know it all at all . I hate people like that sorry but i realy do . I have been around this for along time and i learn something new everyday like that if you red light during qualifying it doesnt matter just learned that today lol.
