nostatic at all...

Well, it had to happen some time. I guess you just have to take the luck involved and see the bright side. This morning Calvin and I packed up the car for another day at CA Speedway. My first session wasn't until 9am so we headed to Peets for sustinence. Coming out of the Peets parking lot, I eased into traffic and there was a "bang." Uh oh...that doesn't sound good. The engine was running, but the car was no go and was making a bad noise from the bad. Pulled over and looked underneath. Something wrong with the halfshaft. Either broke or the bolts backed out. Hmm...I think that is brand new (one or both halfshafts were replaced a month or so ago). Well, can't fix it in the street, and can't drive it home, and can't take it to the shop. So a call to AAA to tow it 6 blocks home. *sigh*. No race today. On the bright side, if that had happened in turn 2 doing 130mph, it would have been *very* bad. So I'm lucky. We're all lucky. It's a good day...
