    Thanks guys for all the kind words. It has been helpful and appreciated. After every race, Greg’s text goes nuts!

    As Jeff posted, Greg starts the pre-final in 11th spot. He has been second or third quick in every race so far. The first few turns are NUTS. The last heat race was very hard. The guys Greg was trying to get around did not want to go. From what I hear, Howden’s broadcast has been very kind to us. I guess he made a big deal of Greg passing two guys in turn 5. He missed the third heat, he passed 3 guys under braking in turn 5!

    Tomorrow has a 70% chance of rain for our pre-final and 80% for our main. I think our time in the wet yesterday was 5th quick over all so we like our chances.

    Our pre-final is 11:30 and main at 3:20. Check it out on Racefanradio.com

    Thanks again.

    Great drive to finish 10th Greg. Have a safe trip home guys. Unfortunately Pollack coming from 30th to 4th was getting all the air play on Race fan.. We did hear them mention Greg running 12th before the end.

    Regards

    Wow! Awesome result, Greg! :clap: Congrats, it sounds like it’s been a hell of a week. You’ve earned it.

    I can’t wait to see the helmet cam footage.

    Same here… Just burn the raw footage to DVD, don’t bother with fancy editing or adding music, and I bet you’ll get some takers.

    Safe trip home, guys… Following along online made me remember how awesome it was to have Grands at TTAC! :clap:

    We were in 9th when the throttle cable stuck. Wide open is not the way to drive a kart in the rain. So Greg had to start in 34th spot. He drove his butt off to finish 10th.

    We head back tomorrow and will be home Monday night. See you all then.
