How did Pat do in the Fiat??

     I only went on Sunday , pitted next to the Inspector and John Leso . We made 2 nice easy passes . Just wanted to see what's what and to get rid of the 7 million butterflies that have been living in the pit of my belly  . The first pass , ironically , brought Fontana rushing back into my head as the car would not stick at all and seemed to be very attracted to the center line  7.59 at 69 mph   Shocked  Huh  Shocked . After a few small adjustment (Thank you Johnny) and a bigger burn out , the car went alot better at a   6.30 at  113.5 mph.

    It was a great time, some friends and family were there and we all felt pretty darn good about the day considering the long road we had travelled in the last 13 months . It feels great to be back . Thanks again to everybody for everything and big thanks to Alan who was very buisy helping out with the car all day .   Pat
