Went into the pits Saturday evening and watched the Problem Child crew at full speed wrenching on the other boat for Sunday's run. Had a chance to speak with Daryl Ehrlich and asked, knowing full well he had the points race in his hip pocket.............What's your M.O. for tomorrow. His response......."Were gonna kick their Ass".
My hat's off to you Daryl. Mission accomplished!!

Yeah...I'm a little confused about the capsule myself.....supposed to release and eject from the boat....I'm thinking some kind of malfunction....<?>

I've seen plenty of pics of the crash here but nothing of the capsule, where it was? underwater? if he got out on his own .... anyone know?

I believe the capsule never detached from the boat (like it's supposed to). The rescue team had to detach it and bring him up.

Thanks, I guess there's no disputing the safety of the capsules, even when they malfunction ..... pretty amazing he was back in the boat the next day!
