Race's Four, Five and six of the 2011 Season Citrus County Speedway, Sportsman

Race #4 Citrus County Speedway

Well, with the car all fixed up an ready to rock we headed down to Citrus County Speedway for race 4 out of the 20 race schedule. When we arrived at the track we strapped some brand new Hoosiers on to scuff in for qualifying for the soon to be action packed 50 lapper

Qualifying:

To kick qualifying off we had some radio communication issues which we quickly fixed before proceeding out on the track for qualifying where I would line up 25 out of the 27 drivers going out for qualifying. By the time it was my turn to go the sun had well dropped behind the pit stand bleachers giving shad to the exit of 2 an entrance of 3&4. So as I made my qualifying run I pulled in a decent time of 15.11 which was only about 2.5 tenths of the pole time.

 50 lap main event:

Starting 15th out of a 27 car field I was on the inside row quickly moving up to 12th before the caution on lap 7 which seem to last as they sorted out everyone for the first time cone race which ended up to turn out a total bust. After a string of cautions we final got a green flag run up until lap 24 where again on the cone restart this time seeing that I could gain an advantage going to the outside I quickly rushed to the cone with the assurance that it was all right moving all the way to 4 but race officials had a different thought process seeing that I may have gone to the outside to soon moving me to the end of the longest line where we had another string of cautions when race officials finally decided to go single file and then from there on to lap 50 went green and then it was time to gain my positions back where I worked my way up to 12th . I would like to thank everyone at CJR and triple h chassis axcel sports and of course my mom and dad.
