Husets 7-6
It wasn't the best track we've raced on this year, that's for sure, but we made the most of some lapped traffic and managed to win the feature in a pretty good race.
We started on the pole for our heat race, and Jody took off a little early. The car starting outside of us was in the slick part of the track, and didn't hook up at all either, so it actually made it look worse than it really was, but nonetheless we were sent to the back of the heat and ended up running 3rd on a narrow track. The feature looked to be interesting as the track was really slick tonight with really only one good line around it, that being the top of the track. We started 7th and quickly made our way to the top 5. After a few cautions, we were able to catch some lapped traffic and make the pass for the lead. We really needed the lapped cars to come into play as the 2 leaders were pretty good out front on their own, and made mistakes as they got to the lapped cars which allowed us to go by. After a caution with 4 to go, Jody was able to set sail, and looked pretty good out front for the win.
We have to thank Kendall and Pat from Applied Software in Beresford, SD for putting a $100 bonus on us to win. I was able to talk briefly with them after the races and they're great fans and nice people as well! We also want to thank all the fans that have been coming down and chatting after the races! Everyone who's come to look at the car and those who have bought t-shirts from us! You fans are all the greatest, and we love getting the interaction and feedback from everyone!
Looks like Husets will be our only stop of the weekend.....and we hope to see everyone there!
