>> like the stupid red gas can in curve 9 in lake placed this year
that i all ways thought was a coach. <<

YES!!! I know the one. I thought I was the only one that noticed
that week-in and week-out! And yes, I thought it was a coach the
first time.

And for some reason, I always feel thirsty for a Coke when I go
through Turn 6.

I remember the first time I slid and the shades were up. Granted, it
was Junior start, but for me, that was all I could handle at the time.
I came into 14 at LKP and the shades were up. I'm used to getting
into the corner and seeing the bridge just as I get to the exit.

Well, I entered the corner, and VIOLA, there was the WORLD out there
... just crooked. I could see the bridge and my brain immediately
said "your WAY LATE", and I cranked on a steer that could have bent my
sled.

Needless the say, what followed out of 14 and into the chicane wasn't
pretty.
