Some of you may know me and some of you may not. For those of you that do you may like me and you may not. For those of you that don't know me here's why I will be posting on and off as much as I can. Heath Daniel and RaceonE85.com and I hit it off right from the start. I gave Heath a call one evening and told him my story and we both have a lot in common and thought together we would make one heck of a team. He gave a commitment to me and I did the same. I have been lucky enough to be pretty successful in my so called Racing Career so follow this post if you want and if you don't then don't. I am a straight shooter and expect everyone to be the same. I will be updating this post as often as I can. So to kinda get you up to date on the season so far here is a brief catch up. Started the Season off with a bang. First time out we went into the winners circle at a little track in Brown County Indiana. The following week we did the same. I race here locally mainly and regularly run at the NHRA Sanctioned track called Lyons Raceway Park on Saturdays. Sunday's is pretty well dedicated to Brown County Dragway because that is where I learned and to be honest, its the BEST HOOKING Track in Indiana. So back to the Catch Up. Since the 2 in a row I have won Super Pro and Pro classes in the same day twice this season at Brown County. By the way I am a bottom bulber NO BOXES FOR ME. So does far up to this past weekend I have had 6 wins in 6 finals. Coming into the weekend I was leading points in Super Pro at Brown County and was in 4th place in Pro Points at Brown county. I am currently sitting in 2nd place in Pro Points at the NHRA Track Lyons Raceway park, right behind the dude that started running E85 here in Indiana and is still running it Chris Walters. 2 weeks ago I went to the 2nd annual Ohio Crankshaft No Box Nationals in Kokomo, Indiana at a track called BUNKER HILL DRAGWAY. I was able to bring home the victory in the $7500 to win race last year but not so lucky this year as the track beat my little 9 inch tired 69 Camaro to death, was able to get to 13 cars out of roughly 200 but wasn't much to brag about after winning it last year. Which brings us to this weekend. Friday night we went to a little track in Freedom Indiana called Speeds. My RaceonE85.com, Mickey Thompson Camaro brought home the Win in Pro Class Friday night. We decided to take Saturday off and go racing on Sunday. The car Sunday was flawless. As I stated before my car only has 9 inch tires, well in the 95 degree heat I have to add some weight in it to make it work. Well let me tell you it was working. 60's didnt move more than .002 thats right 2 thousandths all day in 95 degree heat. I had a 7.35 on the car all day and still has it on the window sitting in the garage. We were able to bring home the win in Pro Class on Sunday and Tie for the lead in Pro Points as we put the 1st and 2nd place guys on the trailer early. I didn't fare to well in Super Pro as the car did its job I just didn't trust it enough and hit the brakes at the end of the track and let the car back around me by .002. So there is the up to date Season for me so far. Stay tuned for more info this weekend. I plan to run at Lyons Raceway Park this Saturday and Brown County on Sunday. Stay Tuned and feel free to comment or ask questions. I will answer you folks as best as I can . Just want to thank Heath again for all his help! Thanks! Talk to you soon...
