Unfortunately I blew sound again at this morning’s race so I went from starting 8th to starting last again for the final race. I had to battle through a bunch of Alfa Romeo’s. Had an especially long battle with the red #120 car which you see here. At one point I pass him at turn 1 but then on turn 4 I didn’t unwind the wheel enough coming out of the turn that threw me into a hairy fish tail which gave the Alfa a chance to pass me as I was saving myself from crashing. I caught up to him on lap six when he went wide on turn 2 and a slipped by on the inside. The 7th place 510 driven by my Argentinian friend Daniel was too far ahead to catch so I ended up 8th right where I ended up yesterday. I am just happy I finished the race and didn’t blow sound again. #datsun #datsun510 #dime #datsunlife #troyermishracing #toyotires #vintageracing #csrg @renownusa

Don’t have much to post about my race at Laguna Seca yesterday because this happened and I got a DNF. As soon they waved the green flag I accelerated hard and then when I went to shift to 4th gear my gear lever was stuck. I thought about quitting but I was still moving so I decided to try and finish the race in 3rd gear. Then right as I was coming out of the last turn on my 4th lap I went into a spin and broke down. After the race we looked under the car and found this hole in my differential. I blew it up which caused the spin. Big bummer not to have finished the race. Fix it and get ready for the next one! #datsun #datsun510 #dime #datsunlife #troyermishracing #toyotires #svara #vintageracing

IT HAD the feel, the aura of a prizefight. Here was Allen Iverson, in his Denver Nuggets uniform, a Band-Aid covering a cut above his left eye, resolutely walking through the door of the postgame interview area, past a cordon of TV cameras, tape recorders and security, the final steps of his path roped off from the assembled reporters.
In this corner . . .
Was the former 76ers star guard.
Open.
Thoughtful.
Informative.
Patient.
This wasn't the Iverson who, before facing the Sixers in Denver in January, said, "I don't care anything about them," and said that despite having been with them for 10 years "they kicked me out as if I had been there 1 day."
This was a gracious, contemplative Iverson. The warrior in him would have to wait until the game started.
"I'm 32 years old now, simple as that," Iverson said before last night's 115-113 Sixers win. "That's the only answer I can give you. I don't make the mistakes, do some of the things I was accustomed to doing anymore. I don't want to be that person that I used to be.
"But I don't regret any of it, because I feel like going through what I went through here, my ups and downs, helped me to be the man I am today . . . I would never want to throw away the experience I had in Philadelphia. I don't regret anything, but I'm just not that same person.
"I still make mistakes off the basketball court. I still turn it over on the basketball court. But I think I'm a better person, a better player at this point in my life."
He dealt with the media for 15 minutes, 6 seconds, then left to complete his preparation for his first game against his former team in his former arena. When he came through the tunnel leading to the court to warm up, he ran directly to center court, kissed the Sixers logo and waved to however many people were already there.
When public-address announcer Matt Cord - who usually low-keys the visitors' lineup during introductions - began a louder, more complete introduction of Iverson, it was virtually impossible to hear his final words. The sellout crowd was already standing, applauding, cheering wildly. The ovation lasted 1 minute, 5 seconds and might have gone longer had Cord not begun introducing Iverson's backcourt mate, Anthony Carter. As a frame of reference, when Charles Barkley returned to the Spectrum for the first time with the Phoenix Suns in 1993, his standing ovation lasted 42 seconds.
Through it all, Iverson remained stoical. He walked a few steps in different directions. Finally, he cupped his hand to his ear, a signature move from the best days of the Iverson Era. The sound level rose.
He said he wanted the entire experience to be positive. And it was. There were Iverson jerseys all over the stands. There were also some Andre Iguodala jerseys. And at least one Thaddeus Young jersey. You knew Iverson was taking it all in. Meanwhile, his mom, Ann, sat courtside in the second row near the Nuggets' bench, signing dozens of autographs.
But earlier, he reflected on the Iverson who came to Philadelphia in 1996 as the No. 1 overall pick in the NBA draft.
"I came to this organization, I was 21, I thought I was ready," he said. "I wasn't ready. I never had a dime in my life, and then all of a sudden I came into a bunch of millions . . . I was a fish out of water.
"I did a lot of things [with the Sixers] . . . Looking back on it, it's embarrassing, but I can share a lot of experiences, a lot of do's and do nots. I don't regret any of it."
