Went to the track tonight in a foul mood because of work issues,started to unload car thinking,what would happen if I didn't lift at all at the end of the run.Realized I would screw up a nice fast car and shouldn't get behind the wheel tonight,loaded back up and came home.Didn't even get car off trailer,but was close.
Need to sort some issues before I go back to the track.Mark

I've had times like that too. I'm glad you took a step back and went home.

You are a wise man. Good choice.
