Like I said I'm sure it wasn't on porpoise I dont think Mark ever saw you and if he did he didn't say anything to me about it. We also got pushed into the center of the course and he might of been trying to get of the right side of the start marker. You keep thanking me i wasnt even driving.....

Instead of whining and defending why dont the both of you get the class reps together and make an agreement that the SS start to the inside and the VL's start on the outside. It worked in the past when they started the F1's with the SS.........Either that or assign specific positions and get rid of the free for all starts. After watching the Livestream it looked as though the VL's lined up and 2 SS "Honey Badgered" their way through the VL's and hosed the whole VL fleet down...

I dont think you will see the svl starting with the ss the rest of this yr.

After watching the start video, I am not sure which move was worse the L-1 around the out side, double house down or on the oppisite side the S-31 around the paceboat slingshot. I do't think our class rep as even at the race....

Come on Ryan, you've been in this game for an awful long time and I am pretty sure this wasnt the first time you were hosed and I am pretty sure it wont be the last. He apologized said he didnt see you, what more do you want from him? Sure as a racer things happen that can be upsetting, but come on a hose down last at most 5 seconds.... Did that 5 seconds cause you to finish 3 minutes 26 seconds behind the winner or for that matter 1 minute 48 seconds behind the boat in front of you? I've been hosed down by every single boat in the SS class over time, but instead of bitching and moaning about the problem, I helped contribute to the solution(stated above) and it worked. Good luck to you down the line and hopefully an amicable solution can be reached and it wont happen again.

Thanks for the valuable insight Trent. It IS much appreciated. Sorry we didn't see TnT racing out there on the course, but it was nice of you to lend support to Team IMCO in the rookie race.

Kerry and his staff , at the Space Coast GP, put on a great event and we had a good time. Overall we couldn't have done any better as we lost fuel pressure in the last corner anyway. We ran as hard as we could to finish in 4th place and complete all of our laps. We were just a tick off the pace of WHM, in 3rd, the entire race. BlackSand and Duece Rods.com were gone. Congrats to those guys. We'ld like to than all of our sponsors for enabling us to show up and compete. Fluid Sealing Products.com, Wayne Deck Realtor, JD Byrider, Ronstan Paper, Electronics Unlimited, Reliable Services, AECI, Hampton Inn of Cocoa Beach, Slow & Low BBQ of Cocoa Beach and all of our family and crew that makes it all happen. We were sorry to see Team BK motorsports have engine troubles and not make the start of the race. We'll see everyone in Sarasota!

Moving On.....

Ryan I have to agree Kerry and is staff worked their butts off to put on an awesome event. They have taken huge step in a few shorts yrs. Sarasota is the next event and we all know what kinda of show that is, they dont get much better.:hurray:

Looking at Freeze's pic it does seem like an odd lineup for the start.....

 

[XtremeRacing]

Looks like a pretty clean start to me, good job guys.

I was just surprised they didn't start in 2 waves instead of the cats and SVL's mixed together, or at least lanes of SVL's and Cats on the outside or something.

I don't think I've ever seen it that way before.
