What was up with the axles snapping last night at Kokomo? Very rare to see one snap for no reason but two in one night??? Was they both the same brand? j/w

I couldn't find the clip but I think D.O. captured that. He was in the Truckers car at the time.

Yep you are right, Steve and I had just walked in during qualifying, hung a left to go to the concession stand and POW right thru the fence and all the way to the second fence. I think we had to go the other way to clean our shorts out!
