course defensive ended expected fight good lap line run took track
He had a run on me and I took a defensive line, but I think he expected me to move, because he just swerved back into line and punted me in the right rear. It's really pretty frustrating of course because we had such good track position, and we ended up having to fight from a lap down.
again bad cars course far forward guess moving plan problems race ran second starting third
I guess it's just more cars for us to pass. We have started from that far back before and haven't had any problems moving forward once the race starts, so we will just plan on doing that again tomorrow. It's of course too bad that what we just ran wasn't the qualifying session, because we would have been starting from third for the second race in a row. But the car is strong, so we'll just go for it tomorrow.
best car condition happy later looks porsche seat track wait
We just got back from a seat fitting, and I have to say the car looks like it's in its best condition ever. We're very happy with the new Porsche engine, and we can't wait to get it on track later this week.
both continue dreams footsteps opportunity passed passion pursue racing thrilled
Our dad's passion for racing was passed on to both of us. And we are thrilled to have the opportunity to continue in his footsteps and pursue our dreams with him by our side.
anyone car fast great passed rest result
I was as fast as anyone out there, and the only car that passed me was the leader, so we know we could have had a great result if we hadn't been hit. But the car was fast and that's really encouraging for the rest of the season.
car cars drive far finding fun ground matter passing power racing saturday speed
I still feel like I have some ground to make up as far as finding all the speed that's in this car on this track, but I think it's a lot more fun to drive than when we were here last. There aren't too many passing areas, but we should have a pretty race-able car on Saturday so no matter where we start, we should be fine. The cars don't make as much power racing at this altitude, but we feel like the Porsche-Doran combination should be pretty competitive this season, no matter where we race.
came cars days far fast hill left missed smoke spinning squeezed
I came up the hill on the restart, and all I could see was smoke and cars spinning into the wall, so I just squeezed as far left as fast as I could, and fortunately I missed the whole thing. It was just like Days of Thunder!
definitely finish good great
I am really disappointed that I had to get out of the car. Burt had done a great job, and we were definitely on-track for a good top-10 finish with the Rx.com car, but I just had to get out of the car.
family team third year
This team is really like a family. This is my third year with the team and a lot of them have become like family to me.
fall huge support
It's huge having my family's support. I don't think I would have been able to do this without them. To be able to fall back on their support when you can't really support yourself and you feel down, it's really big.
add amazing battles brothers chance forget growing history hopefully missed names opportunity race saw sharing track
This is the first race track we ever went to, and we never missed a race growing up. So to have the chance to race there, as brothers sharing the same car, is really just an amazing opportunity for us. I'll never forget the battles we saw here growing up with Unser and Andretti and now we have the opportunity to add our names to the history of this track. Hopefully we will be able to do that this weekend.
beat both closely learning nice strive teammate trying watch
I think we are both still learning off of each other so much. It's nice to have a teammate that's your brother. In racing, you always kind of have to watch your teammate closely and strive to be better than him. But when it's your brother, it's not like that. We're still competitive with each other, but we're not trying to beat each other-we're trying to make each other better.
battle car chance clean close good great hopefully race shape slower starting turns
I'm really happy. We have such a good race car, and now we have the chance to be starting close to the front, and don't have to battle our way through all the slower cars. Burt did a great job, and hopefully we can just get a good clean start and he turns the car over to me in good shape and we can be there at the end for a good result.
