Hunter ran his third night in the sport mod; his progress has been great. As a driver, he is getting more and more comfortable. His car got pretty banged up, but he learned a lot and brought it home mostly in one piece.

We also went to practice last night to turn some laps and worked on some driving techniques. Dad hopped in the car and found some issues with the chassis causing some inconsistency in feel.

We are currently looking at purchasing a newer chassis for Hunter; we have our eye on one right now and are in negotiations. With that said, we are hoping this will give him a better chance to compete.

Last night, we shook down both cars at Dubuque Fairgrounds Speedway. Hunter got some valuable laps in and really started building his confidence. I appreciate the patience of the other drivers on track with him being a rookie and taking his first real laps in the car - there's definitely a learning curve. The late model felt great; I have to say CMD Race Shocks knocked this package out of the park. Definitely excited to get some new rubber on the car and see what we have for the competition this year. Overall, it was a satisfying night at the track. Thanks to Steve, Chris, Will, Adam, and Dan for the help with the cars and hauling the second car to the track.

Sadly, we will not have the cars at Eichman's Car Show this afternoon. We pushed and did our best to be ready, but with the fire in February and then being out of town for work 3 of the last 4 weeks, we weren't able to finish. We are definitely bummed out about not having our cars there, but we will still be there supporting the event, so make sure to stop out - the steak sandwiches are delicious and the beer is ice cold!
