Time for rest

Well after the weekend of racing it is time to take a break and rest and catch the rest of the NASCAR race. THERE WILL ONE MORE GATE PRACTICE THIS THURSDAY, IT WILL BE THE LAST ONE FOR THE YEAR. Jake got one more because of the one that was snowed out. So if you want one more gate at the barn this year this will be the last for the year. Be there or be Randy.

We went to the races on Sat and it was a smaller turn out and it went by pretty quick. I didn't make the main. I had some real shit gate starts and missed the main. I tried a few real daring low highs in each turn but none worked. I didn't want to stick the guy on the wall so I tapped the brakes and that was it. Got to take a seat and watch Nate race. Nate was on and made the main in the 1st moto. Nate just shot out of the gate in the main and the others didn't have a chance. He won the race in fine fashion. Not bad for a kid that wrecked bad on Thursday and has a bruise on the thigh and knee. Sam J. The Rocket took a 1st again in age and now needs one more win and he will move up to inter. Pat put him on a pair of Time clipless and Sam had no problem in the gates and was just destroying the others. He will have no problem when he moves up.

Today was the Race For Life making it a double point race so there was a big turn out and a few of the other Thursday guys were there. I made the main today to make up for the race yesterday and took a 3rd place. Nate raced age and cruiser today as his leg felt better today. He didn't make the main on cruiser as that is one of the faster age groups in cruiser. In age he took another 1st place today. He won the 1st moto again and then in the main he again took off and then won the age class with no problem. Ray showed up and raced today also. He missed the open main but made the age main. In Ray's age main there was a pile up in the 1st turn and he had to untangle his bike and ended up 4th or 5th. Ron was there also and had some good racing but not good results. He also missed the open main but made the age main. In the main Ron had a poor gate and ended up coming in 7h place. In all it was a good day at the races and now it is time to rest and go and eat. Later..
