Back to Back Sweeps, and Runner Up!!

National Anthem Parade Lap

The Grandparents (Bill, Pat, Julie, Dean)

You're suppose to hold the trophy, not the helmet!

Our new pit crew member!

Mason's 1st lap around the race track!



This weekend went very well...On Thursday Shane got a clean sweep (won the heat and feature) with both the B-mod and the A-mod! It was awesome to see the A-mod finally work so well! Friday was a rain-out, so no racing at Princeton. Although we still spent the evening with the "competition", but this time it was a "bean bag tossing competion". And I will say Denis Czech (#2) is the king at that game...I still haven't figured out if he actually wins "point" wise, or just cons you into believing he has won!!! Regardless, Congrats to Denis and Chris Kiffmeyer, the "sak attack" champs!!
Saturday was back to North Central (Brainerd) where we froze from the brutal wind chills. Shane ended up getting a clean sweep with both cars again! Sunday night was Spike night where he finished 2nd in the heat and 2nd in the feature, behind Dan Ebert (#60) in both races. Congrats to Dan and his crew for an awesome run, though part of me was rootin for Cory Eystad!! Mason loves Dan "Evert" and "Buda" Martini, so he was happy to see 3 of his favorites finish 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. Although his favorite is probably Matt Wiesman (aka: Gordy), who had a very impressive heat race win, and finished 5th in the feature!
Well, I hope everyone has a great week, as I am super excited for 80 degree temps today! Hope it is here for good...I'm getting tired of the hats, mittens, and snowpants at the races!!
