Backdraft beats SHELBY Cobra in Vegas at FFR Western Roundup

[Bart Carter]

Well, just a few facts to keep things in perspective.

First, Gary Patterson probably wasn't racing. He was instructing, I know for sure. If there was some sort of competition to be set up, I'm sure Gary would be available for a proper comparison. I have known Gary to just jump in the yellow car with tires that are far past their last good heat cycle and run the track for fun or instruction. Even then he shows respectible times.

Now, on the BD car. What time did you turn? What group did you run? You surely can't claim to be the fastest by passing all the beginners in the new-to-the-track Cobra only instruction group. Could you?

Spencer Sharp also drove my car and passed virtually everyone in HPDE 4. Turning a 2:03 in traffic. Again, what was your time? What group were you in? With slicks you should have passed all the Cobra track newbies.

I ran TTB in my Levy Racing built FFR. Got 1st place on Saturday and 2nd place on Sunday. Didn't see any BD's in the time trials.
