Say a prayer for the McIntosh family.

Thanks for posting this, it is something I can share with others (as it is pretty darn cool!) :respect:

Thanks Craig, So Dickie was driving your car? I thought you'd be making laps.
Awesome job guys, best wishes for today!

Its also interesting that no camera footage both in car and from outside the track truelly shows the enormity of the banking. Perhaps from the track photographers point of view?

thanks guys! Brad and I talked early in the year about putting Dickie in the car but, with Brad being so high in the points we couldn't do it. Well, last week Dickie came over and asked if he could drive it in the "race of champions". We said, "why not the whole weekend?". That being the case, I lost my ride. My comeback will have to wait until next year, Chuck!!!! :O:

We're learning a lot from Dickie. Brad is really glad we did this. We lost a cylinder in the race of champions yesterday so, were going to pull the spark plug and try to win the feature today on 7 cylinders. If you hear a FFFFFFFT,FFFFFFT, FFFFFFFT coming from the engine today, that's why!!!

I tried to do just that this year, but couldn't really get it, other than this.

Mike, now that I've found the right location for the cams, I'll be doing a lot more of this. I may even do it for other racers sometime in the future. By the way my username is cecil3397 on YouTube if you ever want to get on and look at the videos. I'll have the Race of Champions, the Saturday Nite Special and the Sprint Feature from Funfest on youtube by the end of the week.

Thanks again. I'm glad you enjoyed the video!
