Review of the weekend and next weeks plans

Rain, rain, rain, we made it 40 miles north of Watertown on our way to Fergus Falls, as they were the only ones still running with our class, before they cancelled too. Saturday we made it to Huron and got racing in, the track was tacky and made it hard to pass, restrictor plate racing on dirt, we ended 15th right wear we started. Sunday in Watertown was also rained out. Even though it never actually rained all day in Watertown it would have been miserable to be a fan because it was cold windy and humid. Monday we had plans to go to Madison, MN but it was rained out. Since one night of racing isn't enough for a long weekend we took the long way home and went to Lisbon, ND the tack is short with long corners and lot of fun, we started 3rd in the heat and we were fast and ended up 3rd transferring to the A-main, we started 5th in the feature and for the first few laps went forward until the second caution, then the bottom side of the track went away and being new to the track hadn't figured out the top side yet. We finished 9th which we will take considering it was our first time their.
This week we plan on making a sweep threw Minnesota weather permitting, Wednesday is Montivideo's make up for last Friday, Thursday is either Ada or Wilmer, MN, Friday is Montivideo, Saturday is Madison, MN and Sunday is our only race in state, Watertown,SD. The schedual is depending on the weather, see everyone at the track!

Well the racing season has started! We now have 3 shows in and are looking at 4 this memorial day weekend, weather permitting. We are making the car better with the addition of scales and some other new tools. The first night in Huron we had some issues with the engine missing, but with new plugs, cap, rotor, and module we were able to run the feature. Finishing 19th we realized we had a lot of work to do so we put the car on the scales and made some changes and found some speed for the next night in Watertown. We were on our way to the front when we had a tire go down but we still finished 16th. This weekend was the midwest mod roundup in Watertown. Saturday we started 14th and had some speed but the track went away and only worked up to 8th but it was a decent night. Sunday was "rained" out. This week we plan on going to Montevideo MN Friday night, Huron SD Saturday night, Sunday night in Watertown, and Monday for the season opener in Madison MN.
