This weekend we got in 3 of the 5 shows we were planning on running this weekend, Wednesday in Montevideo and Thursday in Wilmer and Ada were cancelled due to rain. Friday we ran in Montevideo MN and finished 3rd in the heat and had a good run in the feature finishing 7th, much better than we have done in the past at the track and our best finish of the year. Saturday we ran or tried to anyways in Madison MN, we go wrecked out of the heat and we started in the back of the feature but there was some lingering issues and the power steering belt broke and with how full of holes the track was the car felt like something was broken so we didn't finish. Sunday night we ran in Watertown SD the car and driver were both not ready for the track conditions of the heat race, kind of tacky in spots, kind of dry slick in other spots, and even greasy in others, making the car hard to drive, so we had to go threw the b-main. In the b-main we finished fourth, transferring to the feature, but during the race another car got out of shape and Kenny ended up hitting him with the rear of the car breaking a weld holding the rear end still in the car, with the help of a welder, a new shock, and some pop rivets we got out for the feature. we started 20th in the feature and finished 10th, this was not without struggle though, there were many wrecks and a lot of damaged cars to drive around. We cannot complain about the finish so overall it was an okay weekend.
For the upcoming weekend we have three races planned, Friday in Montevideo MN, Madison MN Saturday, and Sunday in Watertown
A very special thanks to DJ Tesch who loaned us a welder two times this weekend!
