Track is incredibly dry... I can't figure out why they're still under yellow.

Cool! I am going to be cutting it close to pick up my car and my new tires... still haven't hooked up my trailer...

Looks like this yellow is sinking us.
Green at 10:00.
BJ down to 13 at the restart but he has fresh tires!

13th at the line. Looks like another possible yellow. ;/

What a sad ending to what looked so promising just a while ago. I hate to Monday morning quarterback but the strategy calls were just not good there at the end.

Just a quick note.....
the strategy calls were correct.
When we came in it just began to dump. .and we were obe of the only teams to go to wet tires.
Cars that stayed on dry tires coulndt even circulate at 30 mph behind the pace car.
this put us to P1.
If we would have gone back green flag racing while the track was wet...we would have been unreeeal.
Nobody knew that we would have a red flag and park the cars whilr they dryed the track.
So by them chosing to dry the track....instead of us racing in the wet....cuz we have rain tires ....we were kinda screwed.
Then we had to pit before going back to green to get dry tires.
So it wasnt the strategy was exaxtly what it needed to be.
We played our cards correctly....the house just decided to deal new cards
also......
In the final 75 min of racing...i had 10 yellow laps ...2 green flag laps.....a lot of sitting...and a handfull of drying the track laps...but mostly sitting

That's nuts! I thought this was a rain-or-shine series? From the sounds of things, you guys did an unbelievable job, the whole team. From that wrecked car and no practice, no laps on it, no laps for Brian before today, just Wow.

The other teams must be staring.
