Bumped for pletchfan,

pletchfan, would you like to share your memories of that night at THAT in 1999?

I wish I was there, but that was the most excited I had ever been watching a race on TV. It was amazing the way Pletch could drive through right through the middle of the turns, forming his own groove, while everyone else was seeking moisture near the outside and inside guardrails.

From 21st to 1st, then a front right tire going down, and he still held on for the win. Too bad there was no post-race interview. 1999 was a great year of racing for TP if I remember correctly. :thumb
