a series of each week
Opening night at Ventura Raceway. There were over 40 sprint cars there, There were 5 heat races and 2 LCQ mains. I was in the 2nd heat race, I finish 2nd . The main event I started in the 5th row outside. The car was not perfect, But it was good. The start I was hit by the car next to me, He put me into the back stretch wall, I fell back 5 spots. I came back and passed a few more cars. There were a lot of yellow flags, You would get up to speed and heat in your tires, Then there was another yellow, That went on and on. Back to racing, my car did not have good forward bite, I had to make the best with what I had. I passed a few more cars and ended up nere the front, But I ran out of laps, The checked flag was out, the race was over. A top 5 finish is the best I could do that night. The #71 sprint car will be back next week to try to put it in the winners circle.Till next week, see ya at the races. Thanks again to all of the fans and the people that help me to race this awsome sprint car.
