Ventura Raceway ... 10-24-2009.... ALL COAST 360 CHALLENGE,  40+ sprint cars showed up and 23 cars make the show ! ..... Again it is all about the pill pick and track postion.  Some of the best sprint car drivers were here,  the pill pick was half the battle.  Are pill pick was 65 out of 75, not a good start.  Heat race #5 , started 8th and finish 5th (top three transfer to the main), that put me in 1 of 2 simi mains. Simi main i finish 4th, that was good enough to get in the main event.  The main event .... The track was fast, starting in the 23rd postion (last) the car was good and was a little bit better than some of the cars in front of me, it was hard to get pass them at times, the car was geting better by the lap. There were alot of cautions that helped sometimes and did not help other times.  After it was all over it was a good run for the #71 ellis,  ended up near the front with a 11th place finish.   Thank's again to Steve Luport  for letting me drive his sprint car and thank's to his great crew for giving me a great car to race.  And thank's to Mike from ALL COAST for all his help.  One more race at Ventura Raceway for the sprint cars next weekend ....... That is were i will see ya ... Back In The Sprint Car for the last race for 2009.
