To clear some things up.....

When I say only car "legal" to the rules everyone was to follow I mean that.... What I found out after the races is that at the MMSA rules meeting Tony Barhorst showed up and it was asked if TQ tires would be allowed and he said yes..... But this was never posted anywhere as far as I can tell.... Sorry for this misunderstanding. I guess I learn quiet a bit after the race is over.... Oh well on to the new year and getting cars ready for the 2012 season

First night of racing at Ft. Wayne

Well what can I say about tonight!!!! First off I had an absolute blast. Running indoors in a new animal but it was a great one.

Qualifying was a distaster, we ended up 3rd but I left a lot in the car. Lynn Ambrose ended up quick time, Doug Jones was second I was third and Colin Parker was fourth.

Heat race they did a four invert and it pretty much went single file with Colin Parker won and I finished 2nd and Collin Ambrose was third I believe.

Feature they did a six invert. When we rolled on the track we learned that the race would be cut down to 15 laps, and really no reason why. I got collected in Colin Parker spinning went to the back and ran up to 2nd. If we had a full 30 laps I think we could have had something for Lynn Ambrose.

Tomorrow is another day and I think we have a good shot! I will keep everyone updated as best as I can but with Joe running midgets it's been quiet busy!

Rumble upright mini feature

Lynn Ambrose took the checkers leading flag to flag for the 15 lap event but it was the driving of Lynsey Tilton that provided the most excitement by working her way from 5th to 2nd in the nine car field. The 17 of Kyle McIntosh and the 37 of Doug Jones battled back and forth during the race for the second and third spot but in the end it was Tilton overcoming them both. Becca Stiefel finished 5th.

1 Lynn Ambrose
74 Tilton
17 McIntosh
37 Jones
328 Stiefel
44 Coleman
4 Bradley. DNF
25 Parker. DNF
36 C Ambrose. DNF
