Im on the worst winless streak of my life! While I'm not a seasoned racer with dacades of experience, I've been doing this for a few years now. Last few years I've been pretty successful, yet to win a race but usually went rounds. Decided this year to race the local point series, racing more than ever before. Well, It's just not working out like I'd hoped. After a halfway decent start to the season, I'm now on a 5 race 1st round exit streak, and I'm doing it in every way conceivable. The last four races have yielded a breakout taking way too much stripe, then two 1st round redredlights; and last night the Coup De'Grau! I was #1 qualifier thanks to a .002 in Q2, 1st round had a slower car in the other lane. I put almost .06 in the bank at the tree (.019 to his .075) caught him at about 1000 ft, fendered...... then SOMEHOW gave away the stripe by .006!, and threw away a 2nd round bye in the process.
This hobby can be so fickle. I'm frustrated, but trying to just focus on having fun with the car, which has been stellar by the way. The Lemonwedge is doing its part for sure. It's never been more consistent; within a couple of hundredths every run, every time out, and yet I'm inventing ways to throw it away. UUGGHH!!
Rant over.......... hoping for some FBBO encouragement.
