It has been a long time since I have posted on here so I am going to recap what has happened and where we are racing next.

On May 9th we went to Attica Raceway Park and only got hot laps in before it rained out.

On May 10th we went to Fremont where we were 9th quick. In the heat race the mechanic forgot to tighten the jam nut on the right front torsion stop and I could not control the car and had to pull in. On the start of the B-main Jody Keegan and I got tangled and both went flipping.

On May 17th we decided to take the wing off and race at Paragon where we started 12th and ran 6th.

This weekend we will be racing with the Midwest All Stars. We are 6th in MASS points.

Recap and What's Ahead

Well I have a new favorite track and it is definately Attica Raceway Park. You can pretty much race anywhere on the track and there is alot of three wide racing.

Well, we were going good at Attica. We were running eighth and then I slipped off the backstretch twice and ended up finishing 12th.

At Fremont I ran off the track in Qualifying which pretty much killed any chances of having a good run. We started in the back and ran in the back in 17th place.

We will be going back to Attica and Fremont on May 9th and 10th. We are not racing this weekend.

I am sitting at the Hampton Inn in Tiffin, Ohio right now waiting for a pizza. We ran 12th in the A-main. Tomorrow we will either race at Fremont or Orrville.

Rain?

Well it is Thursday night here in Bloomington and I have watched about a million different weather forecasts. We may head to Ohio in the morning because it looks like the big rain won't get there until about 2 a.m. If we go to Ohio on Friday night we will either race at Attica, Lakeville, or Skyline. On Saturday night we will either race at Fremont or Chillicothe. We are hoping to run Attica/Fremont because it pays the best out of the Ohio race tracks. If we decide to stay we will run the $3000 to win at Bloomington, but as far as Saturday goes I do not know if we will race anywhere if we stay in Indiana.

Whats Ahead

Well we are planning to run some local races at Attica and Fremont this weekend, but the weather does not look good. If the weather still looks bad on Friday morning we will probably go run Bloomington.

Well I decided to create a blog of what is going on with the team and my views of certain things. I hope you all enjoy.

We started the season off at Benton Race Park on April 11th. This was the first Midwest All Star Series race of the season. We went out early in qualifying which turned out to be bad because the track laid rubber at the end of quals. They decided to water the track and the track became very rough. We looked horrible in the heat race, but it did not matter because there was only 24 cars. In the feature we started 18th. As the race went on I began to figure out the rough stuff and we were going pretty good. They tore alot of stuff up in the feature and we were fortunate to finish 11th with out any damage.

We planned on racing a local show at Farmington on the 12th, but it was cancelled because of the cold weather.

On April 18th we decided to take the wing off and run Bloomington. We were not planning on running too many non-wing this year, but we decided to go run. In the heat race we started on the pole and had a good race with Kevin Briscoe throughout the race and came home 2nd. After the redraw we were suppose to start 4th in the A-main and then the rain came. We were pretty fast at Bloomington and we plan on going back there a few times without the wing.
