Nationwide Series 2012 - 17 New Hampshire

A great race for most of us.  We all decided to go for it in qualifying and got towards the front.  Scot managed to get out front early with me and Chad close behind.  Caution came early and nearly everyone went in.  I lost an engine within about two laps and was out early.  Sandy had some back pack encounters that slowed him in front of Scot.  Scot blew a tire and ended up taking out Darrel in the ensuing melee.  Chad and Sandy then laid low hoping to beat out the competition on pit strategy.  It worked to a degree moving them up to high 20s and low 30s.  Ugh.  Onto Chicago...another gem.
