More folks in the first win column.
Congrats to Phil Mather in spec neon. Saturday then Sunday Morning. Congrats!
No small feat having Sean Grogan in your mirrors for 20 laps.
Quick shout out to Ryan Kristoff. No first win (yet) but at his first race event after going thru drivers school displayed some excellent poise.
I watched him at school and this weekend, and was very impressed both times with his decision making. Many times he avoided on track potentional problems, not taking chances and just making sure the car came home intact. He was rewarded by his calm head and good instincts by running 2nd overall in the gp5 feature race.
Plus, another nice "kid" racing out of the Waterford paddock. His father raced nationals for years, let's hope they call Waterford "home"
The rain and storms pretty much skipped us.
Amazing with the forecast pre-weekend. At one point we were surrounded by it, yet only got a sprinkle.
Turnout was as expected for a 4 day holiday weekend.
No matter, i remind you all of last years schedule. Nice having some real space between club racing weekends.
Nice having fun at trophies. We had a surprise visit from wait for it,,,,, RANDY SHAW !
Yes, It happened! His new middle name is "yay"replacing "boo".
Now the announcer has a new victim to address for not attending. Paging Tom Deihm , paging Tom Deihm. ( hehehehe)
Congrats to Bob Spencer for winning the Southern Motors Hard Charger Award. Will deserved. We had a lot of ballots ( nice ) spread around 3 drivers.
Thankful that Matt was back to call play by play. Gave me a chance to ramp it back a bit.
Anybody else ?
Cheers,
Joel
