Usually I discount the luck factor in sports myself. If your opponent screws up, you outperformed him. That applies to KT Jr. who wrecked on his own. But not to TMez, who happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time thru no fault of his own.
Not to discredit Clauson at all, by the way. He beat a great field of drivers, was out of practice with wingless cars, & I was happy to see him win after engine blew the nite before. Driving to Phoenix & back all nite to get a new one? Amazing, sounds like one of those "good ole days" stories....
