ok ok so its been awhile since i posted a new blog. i kinda got agrrevated with club racing and wore out from racing the best of the west.ill start by talking about the best of the west since thats a bigger deal then club racing and catch up on that then talk about whats been going on in the club racing scene.
best of the west round 2 was a long, long , long day. i woke up at 330 am after getting to bed at about 1 am so i could go pick up my buddy rob. i got to robs house at 430 and he was sick and couldnt go. ill be honest i was kinda pissed cause its an house drive out of my way and he didnt call me or anything. i could have got an extra hour or 2 of sleep and been better. got to arc right about 6 am( i would have been there sooner but got on the wrong toll road after i left robs and toll roads dont have alot of exits)when i showed up there it was freaking packed. i have never seen so many racers at one event. over 240 people for a one day race i knew it was going to be crazy. the good news is the track was one of the best i have ever run at. the layout was fast, hooked up and hard. i got on the track the first time for my first qual( i really hate having to fight people for practice time so i usually skip practice.the thought of breaking my car cause 20+ people are on the track at the same time trying to learn a new track just doesnt appeal to me) well my first qual was decent. at the time it was lower b-main upper cmain and i wasnt 2 dissapointed in that. the second qual i just kinda screwed up. i knew the track better and knew how much grip my car was getting so i didwhat im not good at and i tried to over push my car. my time was way worse the secodn run where everybody else's was better and i dropped all the way to the e-main. i had no business being in the e-main but that was my fault. the part that sucks is each qual was 5 mins and the lower mains was 5 mins. so i would be there for almost 10 hours for 15 mins or race time. in the emain i started 4th and got a good jump and was out front within a couple of laps. then i got on lap traffic and it ended my race. he hit me into a hay bail that had a banner on it and that banner got caught up on my wheel and i lost almost 2 laps while the marshell tried to free my car and there was nothing i could do about it. so i finished 6th i think and got crap for points. a really disappointing race that took from 6am till 1am to finish. wow what a long long day.
