Ooooh, pick me! Years ago I was campaigning a big block Challenger. I took a cue from a logger who always used chains and those orange binders to secure his car on a trailer - he swore by (at?) them so I did the same, still do. Early AM, car was successfully griped down and off to the races. Raced all day and into the evening. Lost the last round about 9:30 PM. Pits were poorly lit. Car went up on the trailer, cross chained the front, tilted the deck & cross chained the rear, pinned down the trailer bed & homeward we went. Pulled into the unlit backyard & carried my dead tired butt in for a shower & bed. Got up the next morning to unload everything. I found a very slack chain from the passenger front of the car to the driver's front corner of the trailer. On top of that, the entire deck of the trailer was wet. Somehow, someway, in my haste, I managed to throw the chain over the lower radiator hose. On the way home the chain 'sawed' off the lower radiator hose and radiator input nipple. Fortunately the track was/is only 7 miles from the house but, oh, what could have been. And I formally apologize to anyone who followed me down the highway that night...
