July 29th, Kansas Dirt Oval Championships, CFR, Bonner Springs.
my home track hosted the annual KDOC. it was a pretty good weekend with people traveling from all over the US to join us. fought a couple of cars that wouldn’t turn but put them both near the top in the A-Main. started 2nd in LM and finished 2nd. open sprint started 4th and a few laps later I found myself in the lead, only to be taken out by a lapper, that dropped me to 3rd. then the driver in 4th felt like a hero and took me out so he could podium. I ended up 4th.

Sept 30th final round for King of Kansas City, Blue Springs, MO
the track was a dry slick, hard packed, greasy pit of dirt. I fought ill handling cars all day. open sprint car was terrible to be nice and I was tq of the c main. while leading the c the 2nd place car got a little whiskey throttle and plowed me into the back stretch. after that the car was out of wack forcing me to just pull of. open late model I qualified 3rd in the a. after the buzzer went off I found myself battling for the lead. trouble with back markers sent me a half alap behind the leader. but 20 laps togo I had worked my way back the rear bumper of the leader where I would finish 2nd.
thank you Pro-Line for your continued support.
