But... I think this just proves out how good Tomas is! I mean the speeds at Fontana could have been from drafting, but Phoenix is a tricky little track, that's more driver than car!
get used to it, it will happen often. Before the day is out he will be faster then most, or he may meet his first IRL wall. That doesn't mean I feel he is dangerous either. Sometimes you don't know how fast you can go until you go too fast. It was one thing to haul *** at Fontana, Phoenix is another matter!

Yeah, they take people out of that place on stretchers!
"It was Phoenix in the morning; I had a wake up call.
She went `round without a warning and put me in the wall.
I drove Long Beach, California with three cracked vertebrae.
Then it was on to Indianapolis, Indiana in May."

While danger ought never to be needlessly incurred, it is yet true that the keenest zest in sport comes from its presence, and from the consequent exercise of the qualities necessary to overcome it. --Teddy Roosevelt
That story sounds familiar, Kart29. Except, I don't recall Buddy Lazier racing at Long Beach....
"But another icy Indiana winter will come and go and before we know it, springtime returns and it will be May and the roar of engines will once again breathe life into the lazy Hoosier sky and bring us back together." -- Sid Collins
