KJ Motorsports Update #7 Race #8

4/26/15

We went to Legendary Hilltop Speedway on Friday where they had 26 cars. Frankie set 7th fastest time to start him outside pole of the 3rd heat beside Larry Bond for the 2nd week in a row. Larry got the early lead and Frankie followed to a 2nd place finish. This started him 7th in the feature but he lost the handle off of turn 2 and was put to the tail. He wound up finishing 11th.
I set 8th fastest time and that started me on the outside pole of heat #4 beside Jason Brookover. I took the early lead on the high side and went on to pick up the win. This started us 4th in the feature and I made just two changes that I thought would help us keep up with the track. But when they threw the green and I entered turn 1, I knew the changes had a negative impact on the car. We fell back to a 6th place finish and hindsight, I believe if I had left the car alone, we would have been better off. But I will not be doing those to changes anymore at Legendary Hilltop.
Saturday, Mother Nature won and gave us a night off.
This week’s sponsor recognition, I want to give a shout out to Keith Emrick of K Graphics. Keith has been doing our cars since he purchased the business from Cooper Signs in 1999. Keith does all kinds of signs, from ball fields, to real estate, business vehicles, to store fronts, etc. Feel free to call on Keith at 304-428-2685 and let him quote you a price and tell him we sent ya!
This coming weekend we plan to be at Legendary Hilltop Speedway on Friday, back to Atomic Speedway on Saturday for the Dan Reno Memorial paying $2,222 to win. So, we hope to see you all there!
