My s/o drove the new #33R IMCA Modified for the first time at our local dirt track. The springs were a little too hard but he pulled off a 6th place finish on the lead lap. It was a clean race for him with no damage and no repairs were needed.

His 17 year old drove the former #33R now renumbered #33A. It was his first time driving an IMCA Modified for an entire feature although he had "hot lapped" it before. He finished in 8th, one lap down after getting spun out. It almost didn't make it out on the track at all because of a suspected fuel pump problem. LOL It turned out that our 2 year old little helper had flipped the fuel switch to off earlier in the day! There was no major damage done except for one motor mount breaking.

The #33A 4 cylinder mini stock was driven by a friend for the night and had a DNF. A flat tire took him out early and problems in the pit area kept him from getting back out on the track within the required amount of time.

The new #33R is off to another track tonight with just 2 extra pit crew members beside my s/o. His oldest son will be helping as usual and for the first time his only daughter (15 years old) has decided to pitch in.

Hopefully the car will stay together and will get to race at 2 more tracks this Memorial Day weekend!

How did the Memorial Day weekend turn out! This sounds like exciting stuff.

A brake line broke on it on that Saturday night so he didn't have a good finish and couldn't go to the other two races. Last Friday night both cars were having issues and only finished 9th and 10th. That was actually pretty good considering they also both narrowly missed wrecks.

It is exciting even if it is just small town racing!

I tell ya if it wasn't for the minor screwups we could all win a race now and then. Both my hubby and son race and it is awesome and gets the adenline pumping when they are on the track. My son races a IMCA Hobby stock and hubby has actually two he drives off and on which one is a IMCA modified and the other a I-stock. We do really enjoy going to the dirt tracks on the weekends. Hope your problems get sorted out and get to the front. Even finishing 6th in a mod for the first time is an awesome achievement i think.

Good Luck and have some fun
