Sooo....What's been happening?



Well you have probably been wondering where we have been recently since the blog has been few and far between. To start Don has started back at work and is putting in his 40 every week, YAY for Don...congrats buddy!!!




Racing wise i deceided to take a couple of weeks off from drag racing and spent some time in the mountains with family. And of course i had to find something to race! The picture is of Dad's lotus on the starting line of the eagles nest hill climb in Banner Elk, NC. Actually i didnt race, they would not take my IHRA license, so i drove the lotus as the pace car for the event. And of course i made some hot laps up the mountain, FUN TIMES!!! Dad and i shared the driving duties while also crewing for John Finger, who is a multi time world champion hill climber!




The next week it was off to the Piedmont Renegades race again. This time we were number one qualifier with a string of 4.43 elapsed times. Unfortunately our day ended in the semi finals when a spark plug failed. Thanks to Brian, Doug, and Herb for all your help! We will get em next time!




This weekend were off to the Dunn Benson Renegades race for the first time. Come by and check out the Renegades and Top Dawgs on saturday, gates open at 12. See ya at the races!
