David, my car was parked in the vendor's area next to the four-post Stinger lift. A buddy of mine was the vendor. I was driving the Cobra from the hotel to the track with my wife and daughter following in the Dodge Dakota. I needed to clean my pipes out so I hit warp 3 for a minute. Bottom line, the fuel pump in my pickup died and stranded my women on the side of I 40. I spent the next few hours finding a shop that would fix my truck on a Memorial Day weekend, tow truck etc. Ultimately, it all worked out. I got to spend a few hours at the track. Met Chill and Alan Weaver. It was quite a hassle, but I'm glad I made it. At least I got to put a 150 or so miles on the little red car.
