1st really good pics.
2nd.Joe the more I look at the pic of that launch that your bumber broke it looked like the car squated in the back and actually the rear tire pulled it apart.Then the air might have broke it going down the track.Other then that all I can think is you farted and blew it apart.

i did see that, it was a car in the left lane? i thought that was Joe as well? looks like who's ever it was need to go back to the drawing board, so it doenst catch the air like that. and get ripped off again. unless it was just an install mistake(unclipped dzues fasteners)

I do believe this is when Gary Gardella's car hit the wall.

the aftermath of Gardella Vs townsend in pro fwd on sunday. gardella's chute got cought underneath the wheelie bar, lifted the back of the car "4 ft in the air" which got him out of shape. the car didnt look tooo bad. mostly just the tubes that protect the fuel cell/etc in the front. the wheelie bars got bent and the front end was in pieces. ron townsend got away with a hole about the size of a basketball in his front end. Gardella took the win on that pass too.
im glad to see they both walked away from this.

And thanks to Stephane hard work, there's parity once again in the Hotrod class!! The small turbo rule for Ecotec powered cars was a good move I think.
And even Hondas aren't that far either. Like 2 tenths of a second?
That's all good stuff IMHO.
