As always great job Dave, And how about the PRINCE? was that not the cats behind. Would have liked to have seen more people in the stands but they will come. Was a little disappointed that there was no track photo guy, it would help juice up the web site . If you want them to come you have to build it, had a good night looking forward to next weekend. Great reporting DAVE keep up the good work.
The Prince was a rocket in the former McAdam Sauble Thunder. I had him clocked at a few 15.6's throughout the heat races. I also had the #24 driven by Jongen clocking a few 15.6's. The track seemed to lose some speed as it got cooler during the features. I would of thought the opposite would of occured as I always believed a cooler track produces more grip?? But I noticed pretty much everyone in all classes was running about a tenth slower come feature time.
And thanks for the props on the report ZERO.. Its for decent folk like yourself why I keep doing them,although this one was a bit of a rush job.. Look for bigger and better on the actual Barrie website report.. ;).. Do we know each other buddy?? If not come by the tower and say hello and introduce yourself any old time. 😉
I too was disappointed by the lack of a track photo guy but that being said maybe they have someone that just couldnt make it out week 1. I know Terry Wilson from the Colts was at the track on selected evenings last season after Mikey left taking photos so maybe its him?? Dont know if that would be the case though as Terry is a busy guy following his wife (country singer Kathy Corky around) .. Most definitely this is an issue that needs to be cleared up though. Lets face it some guys dont win frequently and if their lucky enough to get a heat or feature win its just common respect to provide photos to give the drivers a memory of that evening..
Also thought young Mike Woodward did an awesome job his first night in a LM.. He didnt look outta place one bit, and I think he might of kept himself on the lead lap in at least one of those features if not both. He did have one early spin in the first feature and overcooked it in 1&2 early on in the 2nd, but at least he kept her off the wall.. Way to go CHARGER 49!!
what a great night! i can't thank my sponsors enough, so i will again ;D rama moccasin, walker logistics, triple sick skin, rival office solutions, the frame shop. big thanks to ridge road racing chassis and setup (gordie and marcus). Last but not least, the man who really knows his stuff, rob hosking at hosking race engines for giving me soooo much for soooo little. Hosspower baby!! Really disappointed that there was no track photographer, its little things like this that matter to us racers and oversights like that don't do the track any favours. lets go barrie and get your stuff together, we can't let this place sink!!!!! good clean racing with chris and he can expect the same respect when the roles are reversed, also it was so fun to race robyn again. class act all the way bud!
Good Job Jimmy, good clean side by side in the heat there too with yah!
Thanks for coming over n chattin zero...
The crowd wasnt tiny which was good to see as well, but damn man...we need a track photog...my bros first wins and nothing....kinda a bummer
Great night of racing boy,s. I was quite impressed with the MAN himself HIS WORSHIP ,( THE POLISH PRINCE ) , the 14 THAYNE HALLYBURTON , # 9 CHRIS BURRAGE, this was first class racing, clean, clean, clean. Looking forward to next weekend, GO BARRIE GO.
