Our race was about as good as could be expected for the first time in A class, we managed to finish 5th overall, after getting as high as 2nd in the standings and flirting with 1st for half a lap, this is one place better than our last race and would have won B if we were not promoted so I am good with the promotion. We may not have the speed of the fastest A class cars but we have strategy
We had two new to Apocalyptic Racing drivers in on Sunday and both did extremely well to stay clean and avoid black flags while maintaining our top 5 position (thanks to TaTas blowing up as well ). Nick did great moving from the Plymouth to the Celica and Doug getting back into Lemons after three years on the sidelines.
The whole weekend was a blast, parking with "The Usual Suspects" is always fun, lots going on and the Pot Luck was a huge success, needs to be a regular fixture for friday nights for sure.
Cool to see Lemon-Aid get the win, so fast and clean and all round nice guys, if you plan on domination this is the classy way to do it.
The Plymouth, Charnal House, the Red Wagon, Race Rambler and Dave's Caddy were highlights on and off the track as well as SLABdoba and too many others to remember.
Always good to hang with Burnt Rubber Soul racing, thanks MJ for the help with the trans swap Saturday night, I know it cut into your party time but this is the true Lemons spirit people happy to put down the beers for a couple of hours and help another team out.
I didn't get to socialize as much as I would have liked, early night Friday as I was freaking out about my 4+ hour stint on Saturday followed by the trans swap Saturday night didn't leave much time for partying this race.
Hope to see the Quantum back to it's full potential soon and can't wait to see the next creation from White Trash Racing as well as the evolution of the Plymouth to class C domination.
Team Sheen always fun to battle with you guys, our cars are now so close on lap times and stint length and that Mirada is just so cool I'm looking forward to racing it with the bugs ironed out.
Time for some winter maintenance and plans for domination in 2017!
