Hey everyone, Well, we’ve got race number one under our belt. Not the results we were looking for in an 18th place finish. We got some pretty major fender damage on lap 2, and it pretty much killed the afternoon for us. Nashville is a very aero sensitive track, and with no downforce on the left front fender the car was really tight and on edge. I’d have so much wheel in it trying to get the thing to turn, that off the corner it would want to snap loose on me. Brad and the whole team did a great job trying to get the fender patched up, but you can only do so much on pit road. Practice went well, and the car was great in qualifying. We didn’t get a chance to make a mock qualifying run on Friday, and we went out 6th on Saturday so we weren’t sure where the car was going to be. I was just cautious with it. It’s a heck of a lot easier to be mad at yourself for leaving too much on the table then it is being mad at yourself cause you backed the car in the fence. My first Busch race that wasn’t at Daytona in a year and a half – we’ll take it and move on. We’ve got a little bit different plan for when we go back next time and we’ll get that top 10 run. Thanks for all the support the last few weeks, it’s greatly appreciated! Blog: 3-7-07 Blog: 2-20-07 Blog: 1-22-07 Never expected Nashville to be so cold in April, but oh my… It was freezing! The guys on the team were teasing me because I found a corner in the hauler and pretty much didn’t move all weekend. I had my book and magazines, so I was set. The most time I spent outside was during the race, but I made sure to be bundled up! It was so good to see Kevin back in his element – doing what he loves again. Everything seemed to fall right in sync with the crew, Kevin, basically everything. It was a great weekend. I know that Kevin was bummed about the fender issue on the first lap – that really caused trouble for them the whole rest of the race. The guys worked so hard at getting the fender back into shape and keep Kevin in good track position. Considering the damage, a comeback to 18th was fantastic, I think. So now we’re back to several weeks of Kevin traveling while Tucker and I hang out at home. I think it might be nice for a while since we’ve been so busy lately – Bristol , Seattle , Nashville … I don’t know how Kevin does it every single weekend. I’m worn out after three in a row! Still, I can’t wait for his next race! Take care! Blog: 2-20-07 Blog: 1-22-07
