Well, the second night of racing could be considered a success! Shane won his heat in a side by side battle to the checkered flag, and finished 17th in the A-main. I know what you're all thinking.....17th doesn't sound like a success to me! At this point, Shane is not proving to be of much competion come feature time, but he has accomplished his goal both night thus far: to make the main event! And he has won both of his heats so far, so we are proud of him for that! Tonight in the main event, his right front tire's valve stem was leaking, and after the race, they checked the pressure, and it only had 3 pounds in it. Need I say that it wasn't the best handling car to drive?!
The real success tonight though, was none other than Diamond Dale Mathison :) He finished 2nd in his heat, so that transferred him to the A-main. I think he started 15th-ish, and moved up to 5th in the main event. He had some bad luck last night, but he sure made up for it tonight!
Tonight's feature winner was # 36 Brady Short. And I believe there were 52 modifieds tonight. Sadly, the stands were emptier than my living room.... We hooked the computer up to the big screen, so all of us stuck back in MN can enjoy the races (live via pay-per-view). I'm guessing as the weekend nears, more cars will enter the gate, and more fans will enter the stands!
That's all for now!
