At Nationals there is alot more strategy going on than I ever realized. Being so late in the fall, running 2 drivers will help keep heat in the tires. Running a higher car # so you run later in the group will give you a little advantage as the earlier cars continue to brush off the sand and lay down more rubber. Also, for some I think there is a psychological advantage of going out for you last run knowing right where you stand and what you need to beat. I was #11, so one of the first cars off. I was in 3rd after my last run of the 1st day, but then I watched as cars continued to run faster and faster on thier final runs and knock me back.

Welcome back Mark. Andy Lieber has had nothing but good things to say about you, and I look forward to racing with you and learning from you.
