Lars.  Its difficult to believe all tha crap happened in such a short period of time.  It reads more like a litany of lifetime woes than ONE race meet.  But look on the bright side.  You went 98.126 at SpeedWeek and all the crap that can happen has happened.  Its blue skies and fast runs from now on.  Come back to SpeedWeek next year and the gods will smile upon you.  They've thrown their worst at you and you are still standing (and smiling).  Next year will be THE year.

And do remember, you are going home with a record cert in you pocket.  Maybe not as fast as you wanted but a cert none the less.  A lot of riders went home empty handed.

P.S.  Did the DVDs arrive?

Get off the stove Grandad.  You're too old to be riding the range.

You meet the nicest people in Impound ... After all Lars trials and tribulations it is so gratifying to see him in impound tearing down for record certification.   Quite a broad smile ...

Good job, Lars.

At least you have had the experience.

Now you can make the changes that will satisfy you.

Go for it, pal.

Congratulations Lars. That makes all the troubles fade for sure.

Are you intent on attending any additional speed meets this year this side of the pond with Saltcracker before you head home?
