We didn’t start the night so well.  We got caught up with another car in the heat due to the ruts.  Wrecker pulled us apart and I finished the heat 5th.  Started 10th in the feature.  Ran up to 3rd for 9-10 laps.  Was pile drived by another driver with 2 to go.  Through me up in the junk.  He and another car passed me.  Could have passed for one more spot but track was rough.  The other driver will get the same driving style as I received assuming we are side by side again.  I guess it is ok to just drive into their door in the corner….  Let’s go racin!

We have ran 3 races and have only finished 1.  The two races at Plymouth have been pretty rough.  The ruts have been about a foot deep in places.  They run the track efficiently, so we will give them some chances to run the new track in and prep it accordingly.  We will be running Plymouth and possibly Kokomo for a while.  Lon was out to help go through the car last night and we found quite a few issues: frame hit, shock, rear brake broke.  We made a quick change for the front bumper to help in future changes(Hopefully we don’t need any).  We are about to load up and head to Plymouth.  This post was forced by Jim Orr since he is in Evansville and wanted to keep up on my racing.  Thanks Jim for making me update things!

We are bringing on some great sponsors for 2013!  The car is almost 100% complete.  Make sure you get your sponsorship in soon as we will be getting it wrapped from Huston Signs/Eight38 Graphics and pictures from the amazing Dave Mason(www.isphotographic.com).  Stay Tuned!

Started the night with a bad draw.  Started 7th out of 9 cars in the first heat race.  Ran well and won the Heat race.  First place in the first heat had me lined up pretty well for the feature, but they pulled a 4 for the invert.  So I started outside 2nd row.

Started the feature and moved to 2nd.  Ran about 14 laps in 2nd and a weld broke on my rearend with 3 laps to go…  I tried to hold it together but pulled off.  Not sure where I finished, but not a good finish after a great running night.

We won again at Shadyhill speedway on the 26th of May.  All of the races have been updated now.  We had a bad couple of weeks with the transmission, pulling it out 5 times in 2 weeks, but we kept a top 5 finish while staying 2nd in points.

Have heard from at least 8 people that said this was the best race they have ever seen at ShadyHill..  Can’t wait for the pics…

2012 is here.  We are taking the new car to the Indianapolis Circle Track Expo on January 28th.  Everything is new this year.  The only thing we are re-using is the motor/transmission.  I can’t wait for this year to start.  A huge thank you to Hurst Racecars for the awesome car.  Pics to come soon.

We are getting the car dialed in…  With a 2nd place finish a couple of weeks ago, I ran the best all year and finished 4th.  I made a few mistakes early that didn’t allow me to finish better.  We made some large changes for this week and the car handled VERY GOOD through the entire turn.  I may need a little more bite coming off the corner, but I may have just installed the wrong shock this week.  Very pleased where we started this season and where we are at now.
