Well, we made it about eight seconds without a caution flag in Friday Night’s General Tire 150 at Phoenix Raceway.

Heading into the first corner, Gracie Trotter (25) and Zane Smith (17W) made contact, sending both cars up into the outside wall, collecting Jack Wood (21). As the cars were sliding down the racetrack, Toni Breidinger (02) made a hellacious impact with Gracie Trotter’s Mobil 1 Toyota Camry.

Trotter, Wood, Smith and Breidinger would all have substantial damage, being forced to retire from the event without getting the chance to complete a lap.
