| This is first round and what a suprise. The car had been running really well all day. When the air got a little bit cooler and the car generated a little more power, the car reacted a little bit more aggressive. On the launch, the car immediately heads for the christmas tree. I set the front end back on the ground, got her straightened out and stuck my foot back into the throttle. I passed Chuck Wolejko and got the win light as the crowd cheered on their feet. The officials ruled that I had crossed the center line and was disqualified.
Chuck Wolejko went on to the finals and was beaten by another Fiat driven by Dale Dow. |
