When Morgan Lucas makes a mistake, he owns it. 

During testing at Palm Beach International, Morgan Lucas made a mistake which cost the team some time, parts and money. 

"It was all my fault," said Lucas of the engine fire during a testing pass at Palm Beach. "I know better, but I just kept my foot in it. I am really sorry. I shouldn't have done this. Dickie Venables and the entire GEICO/Lucas Oil crew have worked hard this winter to take this team to the next level and I just made a bad decision on that pass."

Damage to the engine was rather severe as the series of photos from Competitionplus.com photographer Roger Richards reveal.
