The track was AWESOME! My car was working better than ever! We got new front struts put in the car and that took care of the steering wheel vibration problem and gave me a very smooth ride! Also, we found that the radiator had been leaking, which would explain why I had been overheating so bad the last couple weeks, so we replaced that.
In the heat I slammed my foot to the floor and never let up! I can't believe I won by that much! I thought they were right on my a** the whole time!
In the feature, the car bogged down a bit in the corners and slowed me up, I need to work on my entry and exit angles to fix that problem. I ended up getting 3rd place though, not bad! The 00 only beat me by a foot! I'll put a link up to the youtube video in my journal when I get a chance, in the meantime, if you really want it, pm me and I'll send you the link!
I was so happy that my grandparents were able to make it tonight, and on top of that the Winners Buckle Up sponsor came as well! When I walked down past the stands after the heat there were people cheering and telling me that I did a great job! Even the announcer couldn't tease me!
