4 hour tripple

I just finished up my extended triple stint, which equaled about 4 hours. Conditions were not so great, but man was it fun! It started dry and began to rain, then rained harder. Once in the wet, we were fast, I guess. The in-car timer was not working, so I really didn't know where we were. From what I hear from the crew we were the fastest in class in the wet and in the top 5-fastest cars on track. We opted to stay out on Intermediate tires and slid our way around as the track eventually dried up. I was able to make up a bunch of time while out there. For my last few laps, there was a distinctive dry line, but it was still a bit narrow. So, you couldn't run wide in certain corners without slippin and sliding. towards the end of my stint, I picked up a light vibration in the left rear. We changed the wheel once I made my stop. Ron is now in the car and was tapped from behind, resulting in a vibration in the car. We brought him in and changed out the right front tire, he's back on track.

off to grab some breakfast casarole. ummmmmmm
