Well the anti rain dance worked. We got in the entire night
of racing in and on the way home it started to rain. So far
we have not been rained out this year....knock on wood.
We had 12 people racing 24 cars. 6 28th stock,
7 18th sedan stock, 5 28th mod, 6 18th sedan mod.
In 28th stock Dean Jr TQd but wasn't able to race the main
because his servo in his micro died and he was franticly
fixing it. But that didn't change the drivers competitiveness.
Larry and Jason battled back and fourth till the very end with
Larry beating out Jason. Great race Jason and Larry. Just think
Jason has only been racing for 3 weeks now. Bill Sr, Glen, and
Bud battled it out for the last three positions. Maybe next week
Jason.
In 18th sedan stock Bill Jr TQed with Tom a close second. Tom
had to leave early before the main so he didn't get to run. Bill Jr
took home the win but the real battle was for second. Bill Sr and
Dean Jr were swapping the second position back and fourth. Good
old Bill Sr Pulled a Jeff Gordon move on the last lap when the buzzer
sounded. Punted Dean Jr coming onto the straight away and walked
away with second and Dean Jr got third. Larry was right up in the mix
until he got tangled up and put on his side and lost a lap. He battled
Jason and Bud for the fourth spot. Bill Jr has to teach his dad
how to pass cleanly.
In 28th mod Bill Jr TQed but with stiff competition. Dean Sr came out
of his short retirement to challenge Jr. Dean Sr and Bill Jr were neck
and neck the entire race. Dean was driving his pro-z with a SO3
and Bill was driving his all kyosho parts mini-z with an xspeed motor.
Dean had much more horse power. He would be four feet behind Bill
in the beginning of the straight and four feet a head at the end. Lap
after lap Bill would pass Dean in the infield and then Dean would
motor by Bill on the straight. Dean took down the win with a
flawless lap at the end. Dean Jr took home third and Philip
with some handling problems was fourth. Glen finished up in
fifth.
In 18th Sedan mod Bill Jr TQed but again Dean Sr right behind.
The Main started out great. Bill Jr, Dean Sr, Brian, and Phil
were all battling for the lead. Bill Jr then was pulling away from
Dean and Brian. Phil was fading a little with a little less HP then
the rest of the guys. Brian lost a tire and dropped out of the lead
contention. With Brian out Dean then set his sights on Bill and
caught him with 2 minutes to go. Dean passed Bill and both battled
to the end with Dean taking down the win. Sams car was glitching and
Glen had a problem with his speed control after flying off the track in
the second heat. Dean Sr sweeping the mod class for the night.
Join us next Thursday to say farewell to Philip. He is moving to LA
and next week is his last day racing with us. We will surly miss
his company and all the help he has giving all the racers. He also
raised the competition level up a bunch with his driving skills and
super speed.
