Well, we started out having a pretty rough day. At hot laps, we didn’t get to practice much due to the Sprinter, it would not achieve high RPM. Betsy was the first race up with her Amateur 120. She was great, she was late coming out of the hole, but after one lap she passed for the lead and never looked back. After pulling in to Victory lane she said her sled wasn’t right, after Dad and grandpa looked it over, they ran it on the stand and the motor let loose. Next up was Betsy’s 120 stock, without a motor we thought we were done. Then Dad and grandpa “borrowed” Griffin’s sled and converted it quickly. Lone behold she was first off the line and NEVER looked back. She won by almost half a lap! Griffin’s turn. Sprinter. With every appendage crossed, we prayed it would just finish the race. Wow! Something went right, we drove to Victory lane! Super Stock is up. Sled ran good, continued with our winning streak. Griffin made it 4 race in a row for SuperStock victory. During the Champ race, another racer caused a red flag, good for us as Griffin has lost a shock. This gave us the 5 minutes we need to repair, luckily all parts were found on the track. Upon re-start, we ended up 2nd. Improved 120 we finished 2nd after running 3 wide for 2 laps. Lemans, during the warm up laps, we had a small driver malfunction. He came into the right turn and flipped his sled on into its side. (Dad was trying something new…..for traction, guess it worked) On to the green flag start, we got the kinks out and we headed to Victory lane for the final time today.
This brought our totals to Betsy 2 first place and Griffin, 3 first places and 2 2nd places. GREAT WEEK!!!
