Default Welds mustang

When I went to Texas World Speedway it rained all night
so at the Drivers meeting they said go easy as it was wet in places
and if you go off track it will be an effort to get you out

First session was the instructors and 3 minutes in one of them
buried his car deep in the mud. Then next session our local
Pantera guy runs out of gas on the high bank. What a way to start out

Last time I checked -- there's no trophies being handed out, or checks cu,t or sponsorship deals being offered --

Who gives a damn about another 3 or 400 rpm.... Car is already faster than all the other stuff on track with me.
