you are right things will be MUCH different next time we race!!
Heres the way I look at it though. Everytime I line up to race it counts! no excuses on either part whoever gets there first wins. that's street racing. if you wanted to sit on the one first race and claim victory...I would have had to deal with that. Instead we raced SIX times and it was 3 to 3. Mechanical failure is a loss just as much as driver error is a loss.
maybe next time it needs to be one race only for all the bragging rights?
