This was a really fun race at a great facility. Billy and Becky are great hosts and I look forward to coming to the next event there. The track was smooth and fast and not over powered. I managed a good qualifying time and had a really competitive time. Too bad I broke my car it would have been a really interesting finish. I was on pace with Jerry until calamity struck! :laugh2: Oh well until the next race. ;)
