Report #5 - 08 July 2, 2008 |
See race results at the bottom of this report.
To challenge the prediction of rain, we had a sunny, hot day to
race on June 22nd. There were 121 registered competitors in 19 classes.
Thank goodness there were no on track incidents and only a couple of
broken bikes at the end of the day. J. C. Martins crew was able to repair
their bike to place first in the Top Fuel A. Mike Cowlings Top Fuel B
bike flattened the spark plugs in the final round for a second place finish.
Our Rannings Racing new Harley in the Hog Gas class broke on the
final pass. Jacob managed a first place finish against his big brother because
of a rare red light on Jesses part. It was hard to celebrate with the
cost of a replacement engine on the mind. Anybody want to help sponsor an
experienced, winning team???!!!! We thought about copying that bride to be and
offering sponsorship to the highest bidder. Dr. Pepper is one of the boys
favorite drinks!!
There was some great competition in the Pro Gas and
Extreme 4 wheel classes. Many times the finish was difficult to tell with out
the help of the lighting system. The entire day was filled with close matches
and hard fought wins. I didnt get as many pictures as usual due to a
dying battery!! I did get a nice collection and hope you enjoy the
variety!!
There were several girl riders present with a couple of them
placing in their class. The next race is July 20 with July 27th as the rain
date.
Some friends of ours in Suffolk had two bikes stolen on June 16th
from their secured garage. They compete in the Hare Scramble circuit. Keep your
eyes and ears open for 2 KTMs, a 50 and a 250. They have 3 boys that race
and it is the bikes that the younger two boys ride that are missing. Now that
its summer time, make sure you have every security measure possible in
place. This family had 2 bikes stolen back in 2005 that they never found!!
