Ventura Raceway ..10-31-09 .... This will be the last night ....( Back In The Sprint Car ) for the 2009 sesson.  This year of racing was a long but short sesson.  I did not race all of the races, because of work and family.   Heat race # 4 of the night, was good, the track was fast and great shape.  I had a good starting postion in the 2nd row inside, I finished 2nd.  The main event .. I again had a great starting postion 2nd row.  The track used up !, with no grip, dry slik.  We have bin working on the car most of the sesson but never found the right set up !.  After Bakersfield early in the sesson when the chassis was bent up it was never as good or the same.  Getting back to the Main Event .. The car was to lose on the top and a little better on the bottom, I had to drive the car with an (egg) between my foot and the gas pedal to get around the track, i finaly broke the egg and turned the car around. I was in the 4th place postion at the time,  O-well life go's on.  I still finish in the top 10, so it was'nt all that bad.  I want to thank Steve Luport Racing and his crew  Mike Berdrow and Dick Trimbel and Matt and Lulu Sweeney and Bruce McCormick and all of the sponser's and friends and family that make the 2009 sesson a great time for every one,  Thank's to all of the race fan's out there for there suport.  The 2010 race sesson will be here soon, stay in tuned at www.wtfrace.com and www.richardmccormickracing.com  for news and updates for what's going on for 2010.
