WHAT HAPPENED OUT THERE?
“The throttle broke. It hung open as I was coming out onto the straightaway so my foot wasn’t on the brake and I tried kicking it back even after I hit the wall and it was still hung open so I just laid on the brake and it shut off like it was supposed to.”
IT WAS A NEW CAR. WAS THERE SOMETHING NOT QUITE RIGHT WITH IT?
“My guys do a good job. The primary was good and I am sure the back-up will be good.”
