Default Re: Hillbilly Racing Team: week in review

Taylor and I went to Newport yesterday for a little index racing. The index part did not pose a problem, but running off of the Pro tree instead of the usual Sportsman tree sure did. Taylor actually handled it better then I did, especially when you consider a JR is not suited for a Pro tree.

Seems I am able to find different ways to lose. Made it to the finals, only to lose by .004. Because the Deuce will run 6.80s all day, I knew at the big end I would have to peddle it some as not to break out. Final round, I was late off of the tree, caught and passed the other car mid track, peddled, had the race won, but ran a 6.996 on a 7.0 index.

Regardless, as always, a fun day at the track.
