FRIDAY AUGUST 31,2007
WE RACED IN WACO, TEXAS.
AFTER FIGHTING THE RAIN FOR SOME TIME WE STARTED RACING!
IN OUR HEAT WE STARTED LAST ROW, THE CAR WAS REALLY FAST, BUT THE RAIN CAUSED
THE TRACK TO BE REALLY NARROW AND THERE WAS ALMOST NOWHERE TO PASS.
WE LITERALLY WERE RUNNING THROUGH THE MUD AND WATER THROUGH THE TURNS AND
SLIDING UP ONTO THE TRACK COMING OUT OF THE TURNS IN ORDER TO PASS CARS.
WE DIDN'T MAKE THE SHOW OUT OF OUR HEAT RACE, AND HAD TO RUN THE B MAIN.
IN THE B WE RAN IN A QUALIFYING POSITION-3RD FOR A FEW LAPS, UNTIL WE HIT THE
SLICK SPOT COMING OUT OF 2 AND SLID UP THE TRACK, ALLOWING THE 51-JIMMY BROOKS
TO DRIVE UNDER US AND TAKE OUR POSITION.
THOUGH WE DID NOT MAKE THE SHOW, I LEARNED A LOT ABOUT PASSING CARS.
SATURDAY SEPTEMBER 1,2007
WE RACED AT DEVILS BOWL SPEEDWAY IN MESQUITE. THIS IS MY FAVORITE TRACK! ONCE
AGAIN WE WERE CONSISTENT WITH DRAWING IN THE BACK OF OUR HEAT RACE (WITH A 49).
THE TRACK WAS REALLY FAST, AS WAS THE CAR, BUT SOME MECHANICAL ISSUES MADE IT
HARD TO DRIVE. AGAIN, WE HAD TO RUN THE B MAIN TO QUALIFY FOR THE A.
WE STARTED FOURTH ROW IN OUR B MAIN, AND HAD TO FINISH 6TH TO QUALIFY, WHILE WE
WERE RUNNING IN THE 5TH POSITION, WE TOOK A SPIN IN TURNS THREE AND FOUR, DUE TO
SOME MORE MECHANICAL ISSUES. WITH ONLY A FEW LAPS LEFT WE STILL MANAGED TO PASS
SOME CARS FROM THE BACK, BUT DID NOT HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO MAKE IT BACK INTO A
QUALIFYING POSITION.
SUNDAY SEPTEMBER 2,2007
WE RAN AT 105 IN CLEVELAND, TEXAS.
ONCE AGAIN WE DREW A NUMBER THAT PLACED US IN THE BACK OF OUR HEAT, AND DUE TO A
NARROW TRACK HAD A DIFFICULT TIME PASSING CARS.
WE RAN THE B MAIN, AND FINISHED 2ND WHICH PUT US 2ND TO LAST ROW IN THE A MAIN,
WHERE WE LEARNED A LOT ABOUT RUNNING WITH A HUGE CUSHION. AND ENDED UP FINISHING
14TH.
OVERALL IT WAS A GREAT WEEKEND. WE LEARNED A LOT ABOUT PASSING CARS. WE ALSO HAD
SCOTTIE MCDONALD WORKING ON THE CAR THIS WEEKEND.
HE GAVE US GREAT SETUPS EACH NIGHT, AND WE ARE LOOKING FORWARD TO HAVING HIM
JOIN OUR TEAM.
THIS SATURDAY WE WILL BE RACING AT COWTOWN SPEEDWAY IN KENNEDALE, TEXAS!
HOPE TO HAVE A GREAT FINISH AND TO SEE EVERYONE THERE!
