Saturday recap
We were at Xtreme Speedway for the Clash on the Clay race. A stout field of 29 cars signed in for the $3k to win race. It came a pretty good rain there earlier in the day which meant the race track was still a little slimy in hot laps and we couldn’t tell much about the car.
We weren’t much good in qualifying and ended up 9th in our group. This would set us up for a 4th place starting spot in heat 1.
The track was hooked up and hammer down in the heat so passing didn’t come easy. An outside starting position helped Dillan get an early jump and move into 3rd place and this is where he would finish the 8 lap heat. This locked us in for a 13th place starting position in the 30 lap feature.
After a few changes in the pits, Dillan rolled out for the feature. It was evident early on that the car was much better with the changes we had made. Dillan was able to move up from his 13th starting spot to 8th and battling for a top 5 by lap 7. Unfortunately, there was a pileup on a restart and we got caught up in the middle of it. The resulting damage ended our night.
The bad news is, we didn’t get the finish we wanted and we have a few bent parts to replace. The good news is, the car was really good and we felt like we had a shot at a really good finish.
Congratulations to Bryson Mitchell on the win!
Not sure where our next race will be. We’ll post something later this week.
As always, thanks to God for a good safe night of racing and thanks to all of our great sponsors
