Well, after the high of the Winternationals, things didn't quite go to plan racing at home this past weekend.

Friday night's test & tune was washed out by rain, but it may have actually helped, with the track proving to be nice and sticky on Saturday. We decided to leave the car in the same setup we ran at the Winternationals to see how it responded.

We hit a small hurdle during warm-up, but after a quick health check everything looked good to go despite missing Q1.

In Q2 the car hooked hard and felt a little too smooth (and slow), so I backed off early, running a surprising 6.996 at 192 mph.

Q3 was much better, with a 6.970 at 197.80 mph—our seconds fastest speed despite less-than-ideal conditions.

We qualified second on reaction time, earning a bye in round two, and thanks to breakage elsewhere in the field, another bye into round three.

After a round one win, the track was starting to go away as the dew rolled in, so having the scheduled bye in round two probably wasn't the worst outcome.

We were then ready to make a pass in round three. The burnout was completed, but as we rolled forward the oil pressure dropped and wouldn't recover as it normally does. Rather than risk damaging the engine, we backed the car up and shut it down to investigate.

Looking back, had we staged we would have advanced to the final, but we're not racing for sheep stations. There's no point risking an engine.

Thankfully, it looks like a loose fitting was the culprit, so it could have been a much more expensive weekend.

We've got a bit of maintenance to do before the next meeting at the end of August, and we'll be ready to get back on track.

A huge thank you to the crew and all of our sponsors for making weekends like these possible. We'll be back.

Winternationals done. Time to focus on the championship. 🏆

We're back at Palmyra for the next Cut In Time Championship Round, chasing more points and looking to build on a car that's been consistently knocking on the door with 6.9-second passes at nearly 200mph.

Who's coming out for a look? 🚦🔥
