Poor Kristen

Ran across this 2006 Run N Gun video.
I'm not sure what Kristen did to piss off the starter, but he knew where he wanted her on the track!

YouTube - Run 'N Gun 2006 Novice & Street

gosh, i wondered what had happened to me when i saw the title of your thread!!!!

actually.... what that is about is...... I had been running novice and getting too fast for the group

thought i'd try out the higher group of street, so I 'put myself at the back of the line'; the STARTER didn't do it!!!

(that's Tim G, btw

)

Dan Harmon the starter for Gateway is just following my instructions and HLC's wishes. We had just bumped her up a class because she was truly going too fast for the novices and just a little slower than the next class. It was her request to start at the back.

If I were you guys that have not competed against her... I would be afraid...very afraid....is that speeled right

She is a better driver than she thinks and I would bet that she could beat a lot of you guys.

There were a lot of famous people in that video .. James Yale in the red #44 Daytona, and WildBill in the light blue Daytona. PeteK in the blue 550 Cobra, Woodsie in the Brock Coupe .. and HLC politely hanging back

Shot that with my little Canon Elph, if you can believe that! Went to dinner that night with Kris, Jay N, and Clois and got pretty drunk

God what fun!!

Dang, I opened this thread thinking something happened!

MadMile442, you must write for a newspaper.

Tru, I did the same thing. I was just happy to see that it was about her starting at the back. I doubt if she will be staying in the back in any class for very long.

I know, Jay, I have actually heard that story before I found the video. Just cracked me up to find the film evidence.

But Jay are you throwing down on Kristen's behalf? Do I smell the tender cracklings of competition smoldering?
At Tulsa, how about Loser Buys Lunch. We all get transponders and slowest lap buys lunch.

Glad Kristen is ok!
I am guessing they figured that gorgeous ERA with such a talented driver would need to work a little for the win...........LOLOL

I was ahead of Kristen on the track at Hallet........for a minute. I quickly decided to wave her past me.

If any of you saw her after she had to put up with a slow driver during some non-passing laps, you are aware of the wrath she can dispense.....my oh my!!
