Sunday morning we put Jason in the car for the first stint. He started having fuel issues from the start. About 10 laps in I saw him coming through turn 11, he lost power, and a bunch of faster cars came around and barely missed him. Two went into the dirt to avoid him. It was clear it was dangerous so I called it, and we brought him in.
With hindsight I wish I had cut a hole in the floor to access the fuel pump. We might have had a good day of racing. What a waste. Sorry team.
So we loaded it all up. Lara insisted on taking Ewan and I to lunch, so we did that. It was expensive and was pretty good. Then we went back to the track and started towing the car back. I wish we had skipped the lunch too. We probably would have made it back in time to drop off the uhaul stuff. Instead after unloading we parked it at work. I was afraid someone might steal the trailer if we left it on the street at Tedd’s. At work I was able to back it into a tight spot so the trailer could not be stolen without stealing the truck too.
My biggest driving challenges of the weekend all involved backing up the trailer. I even parallel parked it. ( I easily could have gotten it into a smaller space, but we never would have gotten the car off then)
