Winding down!

Racin' Mason

Mason & Axel

Shane waving, thinking it may be his final goodbye ;)
As good as Dan is at sleds & cars, a plane's no big deal, right?!

Sprint Car driver, Brooke Tatnell, signed Mason's shirt!
(on a side note, Aussie's have thee sexiest accent ever) ;)



Well, Labor Day marks the end of the "regular" race season, and track points have come to an end. Shane ended up with track championships at KRA (Willmar) with both the A & B mod, I-94 (Sauk Centre) with both cars, NCS (Brainerd) with the A-mod, and Golden Spike (Sauk Rapids) with the B-mod. There is still a whole month left of racing, with specials going on a various tracks, but no longer the same old routine!
This past Thursday at Willmar, Shane won the feature with the MWM, and finished 2nd with the A-mod, behind Keith Tourville. Friday was Sauk Centre where Shane won the MWM's, and wrecked the A-mod. Thanks to the Bucheit's for straightening the frame early Saturday morning, it is greatly appreciated!

Saturday we headed to North Central for their annual Mighty Axe Nationals. It was definitely a weekend of consistancies... Saturday he won the feature in both the MWM and A-mod, and took home 2 gold plated axes, both being clean sweeps. Sunday he started pole in both cars, and finished 4th in both cars! Golden Spike raced on Monday, and Shane ended up getting a flat tire during the feature, resulting in a DNF.
Have a good week! ~ Katie
