thanks guys.. it was a tough night.

we did a good qualifying time of 12.6 with the 350, broke the track record for the 350 class.  but i was 14th out of 28 cars. First heat was good with the 4th. 2nd heat we were in 4th again but oil pressure went down so i shut it off and rolled acrossed the line in 7th..  even though we had the bad heat we still qualified for the feature (14th) we didnt have a spare motor. Just finished preping the car just then. We have been given another 350 motor by a good friend who is not using it. So we will be back racing tonight...

cheers guys, wish me luck.. i just wanna make the A

yeah, it was another frustrating night. in the first heat i had to avoid 2 accidents at once. i got by the first than an idiot spun for no reason and i did by best to stop. Took out the front end, front front wing jocbs ladder tourque tube. and side of the top wing. So with that result that put us in the B-main with the car handling a bit strange from the crash. We started 4th and came 3rd. so we tranfered.

then in the feture(starting 15th) we setted up for the bottom cuase the track was going away. and after a few crashes and a couple of yellows we were in 5th (i did do some passing aswell).  then a car that had it front end knoked out decided to go infield while i was undernieth him so i had spin to avoid AGAIN arrrrrr, And got put back to 9th for soem reason. and 3 laps to go made up 2 more spots and that was it. got to go wash it now and find out what i need to fix.

Mate incredibly proud of that seeing that you drove a 350 against the open class sprinters

Seeing that one guy in the field has got a bottom -less budget Let people know that the one driver he drove against has had the following drivers for him Danny Lasoski Donny Schatz Paul McMahan Wayne Johnson Jesse Hockett Garry Rush

You havent done too badly for a guy who was two engine sizes smaller than the rest

Great Achievement Jason
