May 28, 2009 A Little Racing and a Little Rain.

This past weekend we were able to get Jessie’s 20|20 Power 358 Winged Sprint back on the track after a couple weeks of rain, final exams and off nights.

Trail Way Speedway had a weekend off for the 358 Sprints so we hauled our car to Port Royal Speedway for a special race.  The couple warm up laps were used for knowing where the driving line was not.  Then came the heat.  Jessie actually had a great pill draw and started up front. Then trouble with the left rear torsion arm began on the first lap.  By the second lap it had broke loose and the car sat down on the axle. The fuel cell was cut open by the brake rotor.  End of our night.

For those who wonder - a new fuel cell with tank, bladder, pickup, paint and decals is about $2,000.00 or so.  We think we have a line on a good used one.

Sunday our All American Outlaw race at Selinsgrove was rained out.

We hope to see you this weekend at the races.
