Update #8
Race #7

Friday found us playing a weather meteorologist; needless to say we would not make it as a weather person. 2 tracks, Elkins and Lakeville got to race and we sat at the house. Saturday Mother Nature was cancelling tracks all around and we sat at the garage until the last possible moment. The only track racing in our area was I-77 Speedway in Fairplains, WV. We watched the radar and saw they were getting hit with a pretty hard rain. But they decided to wait it out and sure enough they were racing. We didn’t leave the garage until close to 6:30 and of course we didn’t miss a thing. They had 32 cars and we started 7th in the 2nd heat. We made our way to a 2nd place finish, but after we crossed the checkered and entered turn 1, our lower ball joint sheared and also broke our upper control. We had to get towed in, but we got it put back together to start 6th in the feature. We moved into 3rd pretty quick, then moved into 2nd and battled for the win. We lost some ground at one point, but made the distance back up, but fell short. So we got another 2nd, but the car was really good.
This weekend we intend on doing Skyline on Friday and we have yet to make a decision for Saturday. To keep up to date on our nightly results and up to date schedule, go to Kenny Johnson Motorsports on Facebook and Tim will provide updates as the night goes on.
Remember! To make this work, support those that support us!
Thanks again for your support, KJ
