Scott didn't quite make it to Road Atlanta


#1

Tow vehicle’s radiator gave up about 20m from home. Fortunetly I had a bunch of bottle water with me at that got me to a gas station. Called a buddy, unhooked the trailer and bought more water. Limped truck towards home but stumbled across a shop that was sort of still open at 9PM because the mechanics were hanging around drinking beer. They got on the phone and found me a radiator. Is supposed to be installed in the morning and I’ll be on the road again.

Sucks to miss an open track day at RA. Those are darn precious. But at least I shouldn’t miss the whole weekend.

Knock on wood.

The best thing about this is:

  1. It’s nothing I fixed.
  2. It wasn’t the race car.

Did you leave your trailer at the gas station?

There has got to be some positive energy coming your way. Universe can’t stay so imbalanced for so long.

Yes and Yes. I’m due for an extended run of good luck. Any day now. Any…day…now.
