KJ Motorsports Update ‪#‎4 Race‬ #3

03/30/14

Friday we went to Legendary Hilltop Speedway where a big crowd showed up again and also 16 mods were on hand. Coop did the honors with the pill draw and drew #17 to start us on the pole of the 3rd heat. We took the lead and went on to get the heat win to start us 3rd in the feature. Tom Sigler took the early lead with Travis Dickson in 2nd and Dave McWilliams in 3rd and us in 4th. We raced Dave for several laps and finally made the pass. Then we tried to run down Travis, but weren't making much progress. A couple of yellows came out but we couldn’t capitalize on it. As the race went on Nick Corbitt ran the low side and slowly crept up on us and got us at the line, so we finished 4th. The car drove good, but just wasn’t getting the traction it needed. We’ll figure it out for next week though.

Mother Nature won out on Saturday. I’ll be glad when Spring is really here!!!! Next week we plan to go to Legendary Hilltop Speedway on Friday and Atomic Speedway on Saturday. Hope to see you all there!

I want to give a shout out to Joe Schilling of JS Enterprises. Joe and his family are longtime friends and his support is very much appreciated. If you are in need of new construction or remodeling from houses to garages, to barns, etc., then give Joe a call for a quote or any special offers he may be able to provide you if you mention KJ Motorsports.

KJ Motorsports Update #3 Race #1 & #2

Friday we went to Legendary Hilltop Speedway where a big crowd showed up, but only 14 mods were on hand. I had a newbie draw my pill and she drew #45. Diane, as Donald Trump would say, “you’re fired!” LOL. We started 7th in our heat and finished 2nd & this started us 3rd in the feature. This track can be close racing with some door rubbing and I’ve been on both sides just like everyone else. With 3 to go in the feature, we took the lead and pulled away with win #1 of the year!

Saturday we headed to Atomic Speedway and again, they only had 14 cars. This time, I had to fire myself, for I drew the worst pill of #50. So again we started 7th in our heat. The track was smooth, but a little slick and at the start of the race I picked the wrong line and got held up. But I finally got some open race track and slowly picked off a position at a time until we made it to 2nd and Jes Hartman was leading. I reeled him in and he bobbled off of turn 2 and we passed for the lead and the heat win. Now Atomic does a pill redraw after the heat and I drew #3 to start us 3rd. We made a couple of little changes for the feature that proved to improve the car, but our right rear tire faded on us and we finished 2nd to Dave McWilliams. So a 1 – 2 start to the season isn’t too bad.

I want to give a shout out to Jeff Schilling of Schilling Truss & Building Materials. Jeff and his family is a longtime friend and his support is very much appreciated. Please take a moment and go to www.schillingtruss.com and look around and then give Jeff a call for a quote or any special offers he may be able to provide you if you mention KJ Motorsports.

KJ Motorsports Update #2

KJ Motorsports Update #2

2014 Season – Grand Central Mall Show 

Date: 3/10/14 

Well, we got the car done Sunday afternoon, just in time to put it in the Grand Central Mall Show. The Mall Show was resurrected again by Steve Eddy of Eddy Chiropractic. This show was always a huge draw for fans and I hope it is again. So I want to invite everyone to come up and support the Grand Central Mall. All you race fans, come up and buy something and let the merchants know that you are there because of the racecars being in the mall. Also, be sure and look at the sponsors on all the racecars as well and try and support them at some point and time.

I want to give a shout out to a couple of people. First, Keith Emrick of K-Graphics for an outstanding design and has been a supporter of KJ Motorsports since he started his business in 1999. Keith put in some long hours the past several days and his worked paid off and I am very pleased with the way it turned out. Thanks Keith for all you do! Second, I need to thank Tim Cooper. Tim is just as dedicated to KJ Motorsports as I am. He gives me so much support (although he’s quick to throw me under the bus a time or two), I’m not sure how I could do what I do without him. He’s always right there and goes the extra mile as if everything was his own and as far as I’m concerned, what’s mine is his too. Tim, thanks for ALL YOU DO and for being the brother I never had! Love ya!
