June 23 - Town Fair Tire from Waterford Speedbowl
   We had a really good weekend. I really like
these races, running 150 laps is so different that the 30 or 40 I used to run at Wall. We had a really good practice session and got the car dialed in to the track conditions. When we went out for time trials we were hoping for a top 15 start, we only missed by 2 spots! So we lined up 17th and took the green flag. What an exciting race and the competitors respect each other so there were not too many cautions. During a long green run we went a lap down to the leader, who was really fast. We kept out of trouble for the most part until a couple of cars got tangled up ahead of us. We wound up being the meat in the sandwich and couldn't get out. The car got a little rear bumper damage, but other than that we were fine. Unfortunately, we lost another lap while trying to get out of the pile. We spent the rest of the race 2 laps down, but we were the first car down any laps. Too bad BNS doesn't have the "lucky dog" rule like Nextel Cup. All in all we learned a lot and had a great time. It was a very exciting race for the fans and we hope to do as well in our next event. Thanks to all out sponsors who are helping us in our rookie season. Talk to you all after the next race...take care!
