A Bit of This~A Bit of That

Thursday night was KRA, and most racers would be happy to have won the feature, but Shane was called for jumping the start in his heat race with the B-mod, so he was a bit irritated. I saw him jump the flag, but he says he will continue to take off when the guy in front of him takes off, and still won't look at the flag, but the car in front of him. I guess if they catch once out of 200+ green flags a year, it's probably nothing to worry about!! The A-mod well..... He was running 4th on the high side of the track, when all of a sudden, a big yellow tractor tire comes flying right at him! Keith Tourville was battling Andy Gordon for the lead, and pegged a tractor tire on the infield, and it flew to the high side of the track, hit Shane's front end, and broke his tie rod. So he pulled it into the pits! Andy Gordon did end up winning the A-mod feature!

Friday we drove to Sauk Centre even though the radar showed rain was coming. And sure enough, it did... I was so looking forward to sitting in the stands with Audrey and Tarah, and the kids. But instead, we all went and ate at Famous Dave's, went home, sat in the hot tub, relaxed, and got some much needed sleep!

Saturday went awesome! Shane ended up getting clean sweeps in both the A-mod and MWM. I guess what more is there to say? Oh, I missed part of the A-mod feature, cause I lost my cell phone. So I was driving everywhere on the golf cart looking for it, and kept calling it with Shane's phone, and finally saw it light up in the grass! That was a relief!

Sunday was Golden Spike with the MWM, where Shane took 3rd behind Bud Martini, who won, and Dan Ebert, who finished 2nd. Thank you to the #2 crew of Denis Czech for feeding us after the races, or should I say Genna, those tacos were amazing!!

This week is Fair on Tuesday, Willmar on WEDNESDAY, nothing on Thursday, racing Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.....
