Race #42 & #43

Friday we went to Beckley for $1600 to win. They had 23 cars and we set 2nd fast time. That put us in a dash and they did a redraw for our starting position. Luck was on our side and we drew a 1. We got the dash win and that started us on the pole of the feature. We ran a marathon feature and had a hard fought battle with Andy Bond but were able to hold on for win #16.

Saturday we went to Skyline for a Road Warrior Tour race and the track was slick, so I was concerned for how we would do. We set 11th fast time and that started us on the outside pole, because they invert the top 4. We made a couple of changes for the heat and it worked. We won the heat in which that put us in the 4 car dash. We drew pills for starting and we drew the last pill, #4 and started 4th. We shot to the high side of 1 and 2 and took the lead in 3 and 4 and went on to win the dash. The car was pretty good and we started on the pole of the feature. We took the lead and stretched it out until a caution flew just past half way. Our tires must have cooled down some because we lost some of our drive and Chris Stotts passed us. We moved up to the high side and were moving in the right direction. Lap traffic became an issue and we chose the right line and passed Chris back and went on to get win #17. This ties our wins for last year and with any luck, we can get a few more.

This weekend we will be going back to one of our favorite tracks, KC Speedway. So we hope to see you there! To keep up to date the night of the race, follow us on Facebook under Kenny Johnson Motorsports.
