[QUOTE="khite100, post: 285839, member: 730"] Todd, thanks for the props. You're a great driver as well. Looking forward to Grey Rock. At the start of the race, I hit that huge water crossing way to fast (adrenaline). Flooded out my engine with water, hence the huge ball of white smoke. It stalled out twice because of that. I had issues the whole race with water crossings and mud puddles. I never even thought about the placement of my filter being an issue. Then right after that I popped the tire. Figured that pretty much killed my race. The plans for Neal to co-drive was for him to ditch his rig so he could at least be counted as racing, then get in either at the end of the rock section or on the next lap. Just so happened I popped the tire - thats what allowed him to get in. I told you after the race that I was ok with the decision we came to. I truly believe what you did was unintentional. But Neal also has a point. I would rather take the small penalty to short course in order to eliminate the risk of breaking my rig and cut my lap times. As it is right now, a few minutes per lap was a small price for you to pay. Stiffer penalties going forward should be in place to discourage those type of infractions, intentional or not. Thats all we are trying to say. Some people may not be so honest. I appreciate you owning up to it. That shows great sportsman ship. Good luck and hope to see you at Grey Rock. [/QUOTE]
