Race Day Recap Part 2:
Other racers had thrown cold drinks out for broken down cars, so we were well hydrated. We had a fire. Darick had his dog. JT and some lady showed up on the side-by-side and hung out for an hour or so. It was literally a KOH Party in the middle of nowhere.
And to top it all off, RockSolidToys, Otwell, Brian, and other friends all found our position and showed up. Brian pulled out a Meat, Cheese, and Cracker tray. We were living the high life! We couldn't believe it - a party complete with a fire, dogs, food, cold drinks, great stories, friends - all in the middle of nowhere in the desert. How cool is this!
Unfortunately the 4602 wasn't going anywhere:
Not only had sheared the steering off, but we also bent the Lower A-Arm to Spindle joint. Our Crew Chief Brittain and our two wives showed up about 2-hrs later and we were rescued:
At this point, Brittain and our wives heard that our teammate Justin Reece "was through Main Pit and headed into Lap 2 in solid position". We jumped in the car and took off to help Justin wherever we could.
