Good Run at Barberton

Qualified 9th, finished 3rd in my Heat race and 7th in the Feature at Barberton Speedway, which is our best showing at the tricky place.

Last Saturday night was also our first night managing the series. Thanks to all for the positive comments and support of the format changes. The fans were treated to some close "Saturday Night" style racing, which is why we are there in the first place.

Look for more in-car video, which will be posted after we get some time to edit out the caution laps from last Saturday night.

Happy Easter!

Here's wishing all of you a very Happy Easter.

Our New Car on Display at Summit Racing

Our new car is on display at Summit Racing, as part of the Barberton Speedway promotion, until Tuesday evaning, April 6. Thanks to all who have sent positive comments on the car. Dennis Knox did a great job of rebuilding the car, and Rowe's Body Shop, of Akron, did a great job on the paint.

We would also like to thank Richard Lushes, owner of Barberton Speedway, for giving us the opportunity to take part in this display.

Test and Tune Ends in Oil Leak at Barberton

On March 27th, we took the sedan to the Test and Tune at Barberton Speedway to get some break-in time on the new engine. We ran the car three times, increasing the maximum RPM with each run. Two laps from the end of the last run, I began to smell oil. There was no smoke visible, so I completed the run and pulled into the pits.

After taking a closer look, we determined that an improperly installed valve cover gasket was the culprit. it was a little frustrating, as the engine is a brand new engine from the U. S. Legends Engine Shop, but it was better that it happened during break-in rather than in an actual race.
