August 7th Plaza Park Raceway

Well, if we didn't have a bad luck, we wouldn't have any luck at all..... This has been the craziest race season we have ever had, (I think) maybe I just blocked the others out of my mind. lol

Raio and TJ were both racing Micros tonight, we just got TJ's motor back and put in the car Thursday night and during Hot Laps on the 2nd lap TJ was in a big cloud of smoke. So, TJ was done again for the night and NOT happy.

There was a big turn out of the Super 600 class tonight, with a car count of 32. Raio qualified 17th which put her to start 6th in her heat race. She ended up 2nd to make the automatic transfer to the Main. She started 15th in the Main and it was one of those FULL MOON racing nights which we were happy to be in one piece at the end. With 3 laps to go another driver got into Raio, which ended her night before the checker flag.

August 1 at Kings Speedway in Hanford

The car count was not very big, with only 8, 360 Non wing cars to show up. That gave the crew a chance to get TJs car where it needs to be.

TJ qualified 2nd, got 2nd in his heat race and then the Main...... He started 2nd in the Main and he went straight to the back. He looked horrible out there trying to move the car and it just wouldn't go. The end result of the night is that they had the wrong gear in for the Main and it just wasn't handling the way it should have.

Raio qualified 11th and finished 2nd in her heat race and she finished 18th in the Main Event .

TJ didn't race the Micro tonight because our motor wasn't done from the last race, when it blew up during the Main Event.
