9th
Nationals
Out in Elko, MN was where the 2008 legend car nationals. We started the weekend on Friday with a day of practice in preparation for the heat races on Friday and the 50 lap feature on saturday night. On Friday I was top ten in practice all day and at the end I was the 6th quickest in the semi-pro devision. We went on to friday which was qualifying and the heat races. I was 3rd quickest on qualifying which put me last in the 6th heat race, I was put to the back because the fastest qualifier in each heat race was put to the back. I had a good heat race and ended up 2nd, and the car was still rolling, so that put me starting 3rd in the feature on Saturday night. My car had been just a tick loose all weekend and we figured the track would tighten up for the feature, so we did not touch the car which was a mistake that we will learn from. I started out the feature running awesome and was faster than both of the cars in front of me, but after we got going and after a couple of cautions my car started to go away, tarted to get a good bit loose. Igot hung on the outside and just could not get down until i had already laos a few spots. I fell back to 6th and battling a loose race car I came home with a 6th place finish at my first national event. I had a heck of alot of fun and I want to thank my mom and dad and ABF, Aaron’s,Racing Electronics, and the Pool Room for giving me the chance to go out there, and I hope to go to the nationals again next year.
