Update June 13, 2009

 

Another interesting night at Black Hills Speedway. Aaron finished third in his heat race as Clint Anderson hit the wall out of turn 2 due to terrible track conditions due to much rain and rush job of track preparation. Clint’s car was completely totalled and never even got upside down!  Aaron began the feature inside second row when Danny Mercy #17 lost control out of turn 2 and impelled the wall. Restart Aaron moved to poll and the race resumed! Jess Beckett pulled out front as Aaron was close behind, Sturgis driver, DJ Brink pulled into third as Aaron raced around Becket to take the lead. With three laps left in the race an apparent large rock hit the radiator of Aarons car as smoke and steam began to fill the field, DJ passes Aaron on the high side to take the win as Aaron finished second for two nights running. Great Job Aaron!

 

The motor did not seem to get too hot due to the coolant problem and we presently are re- squaring the car and completely going through the car this week due to the extreme ruts that shook everything loose.

 

We will be ready for this Friday night as the forecast seems greatly favorable!
