Yes, they are chasing down the orange balls and reusing them.

George Poteet just told me that he's sorry he let you folks down -- that therun he had going was great -- was in the low fours, he said the readout was showing, when an intake gasket went bad, the oil went away, the fire system worked, and various and sundry other parts got broken.  End of season for Speed Demon.

In the meantime, the engine on the Bub bike has been started. The bike is moving.
Away from the tow rope, skids are up. 

Accelerating through the one mile, through the two, past the three, sounding good.

Through the five mile.  In the timed section.
