The season opener was on Saturday, and Emily is working on uploading all the videos. It's taking a while because of their size and ALL of the Cautions, but we promise they’re coming.
Here are some pictures from the night. I was lucky enough to have all my family pit-crew there, and I’m extremely thankful for them, their support, and all they did and do for me.
Coming out of hot-laps, we had a header gasket situation and the crew pulled together and buckled down, got us fixed, and we were able to make it out for the heat race.
In the heat I finished second, I had a good race with Lawhead, and it was a great race to start off the season with.
The trophy dash brought a first for me; coming to taking the white flag the track went black. The lights had lost power, and the entire track and stands were pitch black, as I’m driving into turn one, still on the gas, and unable to see Lawhead in front of me. On the back stretch the safety trucks flipped on their lights, which ultimately kept us from pilling into one another. After some time passed, the trophy dash(s) were scratched due to the lengthy time it took to get the lights/power back on.
The main event I rolled out in 5th position, with a lot of big hitters in front. We went green, and it was quickly followed by multiple cautions. In third, the race continued, and we all continued to battle for the win. In the end we obtained the lead, and were battling with Scott Miller to maintain the position. After several more cautions the race had been shortened, and eventually the checked flag flew on a yellow flag. Ending with ShoeCrewRacing on lap 19 in the winner’s circle.
We hope to see you all come out for this coming weekend’s race. May 3rd at
