| Notes
& Excuses: Well, this poor finish was thanks to pushing the envelope. We
were using aluminum washers on the rear axles to reduce unsprung weight. Good idea
except they had a tendency to compress, loosening the axle nut and letting the bearing
come out of the hub. |

Notes & Excuses: Had a
pretty good race, but it's almost impossible to beat Warren Stillwell at Mid-Ohio.
But notice I did say "almost". Wait till 1998. (We did have fast race lap: 1:38.882).

Notes & Excuses:
Fantastic race, 7 lead changes. The bad news was that it was 100 degrees in the
shade and Dave Liddle made the top three finishers pull their flywheels.
Sorry, no video for this race.
