Captain Bob goes Sprint car racing!!

[Rjb3]

Here's how we ended up this evening. Fast time qualifier, second place in our heat race, and we won the feature event. Not a bad first night at all.

Nice going!

[Rjb3]

Thanks everyone. When I get used to it a month or two into the season, I'll probably post less and less about it. But for now it's still pretty new.

[Rjb3]

Fast time again. More later.

...great...be safe out there..

Won the heat race. Now we set our sights on the feature.

[Rjb3]

Well, we're home. The feature didn't go so well. We started seventh in a thirteen car field. As soon as we took the green the front row tangled and started flipping end over end. We got caught up in it and started flipping, too. Our driver is okay, but the car is totaled. The front and rear axles were both torn out of the car. Two of the wheels are bent beyond repair. The chassis is bent and broken. All the links and radius rods are bent and or broken.

The idiot that caused the wreck came over and said he was sorry. Tough night. The good thing is we have another car back at the shop that's ready to race.

....I'm glad to hear that everyone's ok....those starts can be pretty dicey....in all of racing....

Well, season is over this Saturday. It will be official on Saturday. Our driver won the championship at both Sun Prairie and Wilmot. It was a good season.

Congratulations, Cap'n!
