Sorry for the delay, my baby girls 1st birthday was yesterday so I was pretty tied up. So Saturday.... Well lets just say it was a bad showing, I am blaming race track and tires, Mickey Thompson has let me down a number of times this season and I think its time to start looking elsewhere, put a new set of shoes on it this weekend and the 60's were all over the place, got to the 4th round on Saturday and broke out after killing 6 mph, Sunday I was able to salvage a runner up finish in pro class and a semi in Super Pro, gonna get the tire issue fixed and hopefully get out of this slump. Until next week. I'm out..

Sorry its been a while since updating think i figured out the issue with my car bad thing is didnt know there was anything wrong till last nite. My reaction time has gone to hell past couple weeks and couldnt figure out why turns out my launch rpm box is bad. Went out last nite and left on second yellow and was 560 on the tree. Car made a funky backfiring noise so i started pilling wires. Thats what it was. Gonna give it a shot headed to lyons indiana.

Just rolled in from my return to Lyons Raceway Park after the whole shift lite issue. Well we made it to the finals and I must say the car and track were awesome tonight. I wound up going .498 red in the final but the car did its job running five 7.19's in a row. And when I went red car went 7.197 on a 19 dial. So was my shift lite hooked up??? YEP!!! Headed to Brown County in the morning. Stay Tuned....
