June 25th finally arrived and we headed to Skyline for the 2nd Annual Greg Schilling Memorial Race. 60 cars showed and several were had more than a 3 hour tow. We set 3rd fast time in our heat, started 3rd and got the win over Vince Conrad. This put us in a dash and Kim drew us a #2 starting spot along side Dave McWilliams. We wound up finishing 3rd in the dash to start us 3rd in the feature. We made a few changes for the feature and they were kind of wrong. I stayed committed to the bottom until a caution came out. We were running 5th and there was only about 5 laps to go, so I decided to move up and I’m glad we did, for we passed our way to a 3rd place finish! Great run for us with some great competition. We also raised some good money for the Greg Schilling Memorial Fund. I want to thank, friends, family, church family & co-workers for coming to this special race.

Saturday, we headed to K-C again, which they had 35 cars. We started 4th in the heat right behind Sean Schobelock. Sean took the early lead and was able to hold onto the lead and get the win, we got 2nd. We started 5th in the feature & passed our way into 2nd, behind Jason Montgomery. I tried several things to make a pass and in the end it cost me a position. We finished 3rd again. Two solid runs for us! This weekend, we plan on going to Beckley for a Thursday night show paying $1,000 to win, then to Skyline on Friday and back to Ohio Valley on Saturday. I hope everyone has a good 4th of July and hope to see you at the races.

Couple of things to note, Monday the 28th is my sister’s birthday and on Friday, July 2nd, Kim’s son Shawn will be in on leave from the Air Force for a few weeks.

Remember! To make this work, support those that support us!

Thanks again for your support, KJ
