Galion, OH - 9/15/07
Galion, OH - 9/15/07- Short Track Race - We went to the Sunset Ramblers MC to race the short track, with temperatures in the mid 60’s and windy it made for a chilly day and cool night of racing. In practice the track was a little dry & hard, but as the night progressed with help from the water wagon it became moist and somewhat tacky. I rode the JET Racing CRF150RB in the 125cc class and in that heat I was second off the line and I ended up second. In the 85cc class I rode the JET Racing CR85 and in the heat I got the hole-shot and in turn 2, JR Addison, my teammate got under me and passed me. But then he went high going into turn 3 and I went under him in turn 4 and took the lead back. I was able to hold him off to finish 1st. I rode the JET Racing CRF150RB in the open-am class and in that heat I got caught up in traffic off the start and ended up 3rd. In the 125 main JR got the hole-shot I got off the line in 2nd and finished 2nd. In the 85cc main I got the hole-shot and JR fell in turn 2, but he was OK and able to make the restart. On the restart I got the hole-shot again, and pulled out to finish up 1st. In the open-am main I started in 4th and had a really good race with JR for 3rd. I tried everything I could, the inside, outside, high side & the low side and ended up 4th with JR in 3rd. I had a lot of fun in Galion, the track was awesome and the crew did a great job.
I want to thank all of my sponsors and the Sunset Ramblers MC for a great day of racing.
