Algona-May 9th

After a 55 minute rain delay, the races finally got underway.

I started 3rd in the heat race and finished 3rd. I got passed by one car, but I also passed another.

I started 5th in the feature and was involved in a pile-up on the first lap. I re-started in the back of the pack and worked my way back up to 9th. The car ran well....it would be nice to see what happens when there's not a pile-up in front of me. We're getting there!
