Riker Racing #00

On Saturday May 28th we went to Borger's for my first 270 race there. It was a lot different than Greenwood. The corners are a lot tighter and the straightaways are longer. I got to have practice, heats, then features. After practicing, I went out for the heat. I got to 4th place but spun out and finished 6th out of 6. In the feature, I was doing pretty good and was going back and forth with someone but got to close to the tire and hit it. Somewhere in the process of hitting the tire and getting pushed off, my steering stopped working and when I went to go turn left, the car went straight. I ended up hitting the wall and couldn't finish the race. I ended up getting $10.00 for not even finishing so that was cool.

On Saturday June 4th we were supposed to go back to Borgers but they're power was out so we ended up going up to Hamlin instead. As soon as we got there I went out for practice. This weekend was time trials and a feature. I qualified 9th out of 9 and started 8th because a car did not start. I ended up getting 5th out of 6 finishers. Overall it was a pretty good night and a good first time at that track. I made $15.00 too!
