 Fun
Jimmy I agree with you, you have to keep the fun in it. I always leave home with the idea that I have the same chance to win as anyone. I think you have to do that. I usually do as my car is good, it's the driver (me) that goes wrong. Yes, I'm disappointed after a loss, but I soon get over it if the car was running good and I had a chance. I hate throwing away a good chance at a win, like losing in the 1/4s when you will have a bye to the final, like I did in Atlanta in 2008 aganist Mark by redlighting. Or the same year in Bowling Green at the Good Guys. And a hard loss to take in 2009 was the final at the Monster where I had a little better light and could have run on or under but got to plalying around after I went by Steve and gave it away, but it was going to be close since he was dead on with a .003. That's racing and fun. When you are winning more rounds than you lose, it can't be too bad. I tell you when you go to these local bracket races around here, you better be good. I was at a local track this passed year and they lined up to run and everyone was in the left lane. Like a dummy, I run up in the right and run this Mustang. He had a perfect light and only ran a few thousands over. I had a good light my self, but not perfect. I see why no one wanted to run him. When I left ot go home he had been wearing them out. I find the NMCA or races like the Monster more friendly and fun. I just have a better time than going local.
