(sorta OT) Honda kill story

[roccit_53 at scirocco.cs.uoguelph.ca (C Boyko)]

Julie always posts hers, so here's mine. So I'm at the track with the
mighty bug, since Klaus is in a bad mood. Ho hum. I'm in the regular
bracket class, and it's first round of eliminations, and the guy in front
of me (in a white Civic) doesn't have a dial time that I can see, so I
mention it to the official. He says. "Oh yeah, he's got one". So we stage,
the guy is doing a huge smokey burnout, so I figure he's a vetran and feel
rather stupid for mentioning his lacking dial time. Anyway, I beat him to
the finish line, and I see him pull back into the staging lanes. He should
have been going home. He starts into the foot stamping and the track
equivalent of kicking dirt onto the track official. He says they got his
dial time wrong. Track official is not impressed, and essentially tells him
tough shit. (getting beat by a girl in a Beetle really hurts the nuts it
seems) But it was SUCH a good temper tantrum. He just kept ranting and
ranting. Well worth the price of admission.
I got beat in the semis, but the highlight of my day was a .005 RT. On the
heels of a .000 RT. (.000 is perfect) The low spot of course, was leaving
Klaus in the garage :( Hopefully next time.

See you all in a week!!!
