Algona

We raced Saturday night in Algona. It was nice to be back and racing with old friends.

I started 8th in the heat race and finished 4th. And nobody ran into me once. The track was like a "sheet of glass" after racing in Fort Dodge.

I started 10th in the feature. This year the track is lining up by points average rather than the draw/redraw system. I barely missed a first corner wreck that resulted in about 3 cars leaving the track. The second restart also resulted a first corner wreck that I barely missed. This one caused a flat tire and I left the track since we decided not to bring any tires down to the "pit area". I ended up finishing 12th but had a ball doing it! That's what racing is supposed to be about....FUN!

Another Rough Night

Friday, May 5th
Mineral City Speedway, Fort Dodge

We had a decent heat race. I started towards the back of the pack and finished second. The track was starting to get a little rough.

By the time the feature started the track was very rough AGAIN! I started in the 4th row and finished 8th.

The whole night was more about coming home with a complete car rather than winning a race.

We will probably not be racing in Fort Dodge for awhile due to lousy track conditions weekly and also the lack of respect by the other drivers.
