There was no protest. USAC Is pumping the top 5 every night and this was from Night ones finish. When the engine pumped big there was a person in the pits that could,t wait to share the good news with everybody. Which put us in a difficult position as with USAC as well. At first they wanted to impound the car and do the tear down in a controlled environment back in Indy. But when the rumors starting flying we suggested that we do it right here at the track because either we were illegal or we were legal and we might as well find out now. We pulled the head and USAC measured the bore and stroke and it was well within legal limits.

While this has hurt our chances this weekend as it has put our best piece out of commission I just want to say that I feel USAC handled this situation exactly how it should of been handled and while a hardship for our team at this time USAC did a great job at taking care of a situation that could of gotten out of control and damaged a reputation that we have worked many years to acquire.

The top 5 were pumped again last night and my guess the top 5 will be pumped agiain tonight.

My only wish is that the person who was so quick to throw us under the bus could of just waited until all the facts were known, before putting myself, my team, my sponsors and the organization under a unnecessary and unfair bad light.

I hope everyone makes out here tonight because if last years event and the last 2 nights are any indication this could well be the race of the year.

Thank,
Tim Clauson
