The first timing sheet showed Team Chia Bull in the lead followed by Coalitinon of the Winning, on the same lap. COTW is pitted nextg to us in the south ghetto, so we’ll handle them in due time. Chia Bull is a recycled LeMons car (1990-ish Taurus SHO) that was at the Thunderhill LeMons race two years ago. I don’t know what they’ve been doing with it since – except that I think I saw it at Oregon Raceway Park one day. I think it was penalized at LeMons, but it has a better diquise this time.
Team Partridge Family (6 Dates in 24 Hours with Laurie) is having challenges – 25th Place. First, our ace driver (the only one with any racing experience) was brought in for passing under yellow – he claims he was framed. Then, we were told our transponder wasn’t working, so the car was brought in to repair the problem. The real problem is that the transponder was working, but the signal was “weak”. I suppose that could have been fixed during the first pit stop (when we would have been in the pits anyway), but now it works to the satisfaction of those that wish to be satisfied…
It’s a long race.
We had the same problem, had to stuff the transponder down the hole it was in. Lost two laps, don’t know if we got them back.
