My experience in Sparta Kentucky was great. I learned a lot. We got to the race track friday afternoon in time to walk the track. It took us about an hour. The track was PERFECT! It had everything that I love. I was really anticipating this race because the track looked so good and it was my 10th birthday. I couldn`t think of anything I`d rather do on my birthday than race! On race day, we got to the track at about 6:45am. We like to get there early so that we are not rushed. After the drivers meeting I don`t like to talk, I like to get into a zone. When the race started I was ready. The flag dropped and I wasn`t gong to let anything or anyone in front of me. I fought my way to the front to take the hole shot, rooted the driver beside me out of the way and took off. I had a good 30 foot lead entering the woods. Unfortunately, another equipment failure ended my day. My chain fell off. My dad ran and helped me get it back on. I continued to race, however, the chain fell off 3 more times.
Realizing that my quad was not going to maneuver through the course in the woods, I was forced to be towed back to our trailer. My race was over with a DNF. I am extremely serious about my racing career, all I want to do is race. So far, I haven`t been able to display the talent that I know I have. Hopefully, my dad and I will be able to figure out why my quad continues to loose chains, and get it fixed so that I can race. After our last race, we replaced the sproket and ensured that everything was cool before my race. The good thing is that I am learning so much about reading tracks and lines. I will be ready for the Yadkinville GNCC in September!
