Lanier

Not a very good week over at Lanier. Started on saturday and only got the heat races done before the rain caught up to us and postponed the features until sunday.  I drew awful and started last in the second heat race.  I made my way up to fourth but just not enough time to make it past the third position.  That put me starting in the number eight spot for the feature.  We were the first ones on the track on sunday and it was wet and it was seeping.  I was battling for 4th when the caution came out.  I chose to go to the outside and that put my on the second row outside.  When we came back around after we took the green flag the 1 turned me coming out of four.  It spun around and I just about had it going again and about that time got nailed in the left front ripping the whole left front off and sliding to the inside wall.  It was a awful day. I was battling for second when it happened and it defiantly hurt me bad in points. Thanks to my mom and dad,  pool room,  abf,  racing electronics, oakley,  most of all aaron’s for giving my the chance to do what I love to do most.
