<<Albin did have a gear problem (the standard 5th gear shatter I believe) and Wikle had a prep/leaking radiator problem.
I don't know how many laps Albin ran with 4 gears, but the pack spreads out quick. I believe he had enough gap not to loose many positions. I think he runs close (if not the same) final drive as me and if he ran 4th as far as it could go (back straight, front, esses, and after turn 5) he really would not have been to far off my speed. Never give up....>>
That is pretty much Chris' motto every time he goes on the track. Do I need to mention that one of his racing idols (still) is Dale Earnhardt? BTW, he lost fifth during lap 2 or 3.
Just a reminder to those of you who buy a motor, no matter who builds it. Be sure you know what is in the motor. Several years ago, a well-known driver was tossed from first place at the ARRC because he trusted someone else to build his motor. He wasn't very happy.
