I'm happy to get back to ECR after several years, but certainly wish Dale was here! Good sign so far is 8 entries in my class, so I'll have someone to play with.. 1 Captain Buddha reacted to this Share this post Link to post
Captain Buddha Report post Posted November 4, 2020 Yep LOL!!! So...Country Dale is there...but the new owner is coming down Thanksgiving weekend...I took it out and tested / verified the car was 100% last Friday...OMG!! Burning rubber out of pit lane, every corner, through 1st, 2nd and 3rd!! Hit 136 MPH on the back straight without even optimizing the previous corner!! SOB!! Wheeeeeee!! BTW - the new owner is a Spec Piñata driver...he knows what he's in for....! Share this post Link to post
