Track Racing

Tonight was a good night of racing and a sad ending also. Nate and Gage raced the Jr's races and did well in the scratch with Gage pulling a 3rd and Nate a 5th. In the Miss and Out Nate and Gage worked well together to eliminate the strong Shark riders and then ended up with Gage taking 2nd and Nate a 3rd. In the 3's scratch race Nate and Gage made it with the field to the last lap and in the Miss and Out Gage got caught in the back early and was out and Nate made it to the last 6 out of 19. In the consolation Nate was ready to take the 1st sprint when the race was stopped and 4 riders went down in turn 3 and one was severely injured so they called Flight For Life. It was bad enough that they landed in the infield of the track. We are praying that everything will be OK. Lenn went to the hospital and will keep us posted. Again Lenn thanks for letting Nate use your spare track bike till the Bianchi comes in. Tomorrow is a 5 am ride and then off to Six Flaggs with Maddie's class. Later..
