Cat National

[Dayle Frame]

I just looked at the entry list for the Cat Nat at RA and it has only 156 cars so far.....only 12 prod and NO HP cars? CenDiv is neck deep in them. What gives?

I have my car torn down checking all the internals and building a back up engine. If I went it'd be in the FF.

Bob Clark's son did a great job in his first national and would have finished 3rd or higher but got meat-balled for a loose door.

I watched him qualifying Saturday in T5, very good lines, papa would be proud! Nice job Spencer. :applause:

With all those DNF's, looks like a couple of guys will be scrambling for Nationals over the next couple weeks.

Good to see Peter Eells ran well. He's been doing a crash course this year, hitting the road from Florida all season, and racing on a whole lot of tracks he's never seen before. That experience pays off, and he's really coming to grips with a pretty quick EP RX7.

Anyone know what happened to Austin Britton?

 

[Sam Moore]

Yes, congrats to Peter. He certainly kept me moving in the SE (and other places!) this year.
He is definitely a contender at the Runoffs this year.

Eric-

Not sure the specific details on Austin Britton, but I saw him in qualifying with substantial smoke out the left side of the engine and dropping oil. He ran longer than I thought he would (he passed pit in before I lost sight) and never saw him after that.

Here's some video from our car. I had a fun dice with a STU car.
