    2012 SRT Viper Cup Round Three (3/4 of Lap One)

    Update: As I posted yesterday, I returned to Road America for the 57th Chicago Region SCCA WeatherTech June Sprints and got the win (hooray!). But I want to discuss my off-the-track experiences on my return to Elkhart Lake this weekend. Saturday morning, just before the cars went on-track, I...

    57th Chicago Region June Sprints Weekend Gets Checkered at Road America

    I have raced the STO-car 5 times since the last SRT Viper Cup race: 4 wins and 1 DNF (electrical). I now have one leg of the Chicago Region SCCA Triple Crown and well on my way to the second part (Division Championship). I will need to win the Run Offs in September to complete the task. I have...

    Viper Play Day SATURDAY June 23, 2012 - Pittsburgh International Race Complex

    Can you leave a post "penciled in" for me? I have to see how The June Sprints go this coming weekend before I can commit to attending.

    Owner thanks SRT group...OUCH

    Man! You guys are late to the party! You do know we landed on the moon? :D Yes, I am a member here, and Yes, I am a nice fellow. :lmao: Truth is, my tailbone hurts like heck. Don't think it's broken, but it might as well be. I had some fairly heavy bruising from the sub belts, but that has...

    2012 SRT Viper Cup Round Three (3/4 of Lap One)

    Update: I just returned from a visit to the family physician. I thought that because so many people in and out of NARRA/SRT Viper Cup are aware of this incident, that I might get questioned regarding my health and my abilities to drive a race car (no, not THOSE abilities...health caused!). So I...

    2012 SRT Viper Cup Round Three (3/4 of Lap One)

    All, I want to thank everyone again for your concern. I am truly touched. As I reflect on this incident, I can honestly say I have gained something from it. What that is, I can not say at this time; I just can't put it into words. But it is something... One thing I did need a greater...

    2012 SRT Viper Cup Round Three (3/4 of Lap One)

    I've taken a small amount of flack for this incident (1% of those paying attention to this, no more. And a 1% I don't want to be a part of!). I almost always post my videos, and by doing so open myself up for Internet criticism. Then I add an interview in which I openly admit "I screwed up."...

    2012 SRT Viper Cup Round Three (3/4 of Lap One)

    Another thought... What made this incident "spectacular" and "violent" also helped reduce the injury to me. I jsut got an email from the father of a former SCCA racer who wrecked on the outside of Turn 3 in 2009. His son's accident was not nearly as violent, but he was very seriously injured...

    2012 SRT Viper Cup Round Three (3/4 of Lap One)

    On safety equipment and wrecking... I keep telling my wife, who really doesn't want me to race, we're are safer in these race cars than our passenger cars. What I experienced Saturday is proof of that. She'l counter with, "But you don't drive 105 MPH on the highway." True, but I do go 75 MPH...

    2012 SRT Viper Cup Round Three (3/4 of Lap One)

    As promised, I'm adding things as they come to my mind and I have time (I do have to work, ya know!)... The biggest emotional part of the this is the support I have recieved from so many directions. VCA members, SRT/Dodge, the NARRA gang, Internal Combustion Group, people who were spectators at...

    2012 SRT Viper Cup Round Three (3/4 of Lap One)

    Hey guys, I just got home past midnight last night, and I haven't had access to a computer, so I haven't even able to respond; I'll add more later today or tomorrow. Just let me say that was the most violent accident I've ever been involved in...period. Nothing close. The upside is I'm 100% ok...
