well we are all loaded up and ready to go..
we were cut from the village pizza shoot out Friday because the SOS camp fire crew felt we didn't support enough of their events. and we qualified on their night....no big surprise i guess...hopefully we can qualify for the feature friday...most of all try to keep a car for Saturday.with 70+ cars showing up, making that show will be tough...
i,ll update Friday night......

mother nature has a warped sense of humor..
the rain followed us all the way from buffalo. we got ahead of it about 20 minutes from the track and thought we might be okay.WRONG..it came down a ton..then the sun came out and it was awesome..they got the track worked in and we were finally on the track for hot laps at 8:00..we started second to last, last heat.(really need to start drawing better)and moved up 2 spots at the checker... as i pulled into the pits the sky opened up again..only for about 5 minutes though.
the officials felt the show must go on so as they tried to re prep the track we went to work on getting ready for the b-main.(about midnight by now)shortly after that it started to rain again.this time we gave up and put the car away. then the officials announced that the rest of the race would be rescheduled for Sunday night. we decided to throw in the towel and come home..
on the up side WOW that place is fast...
