Salina Speedway 5-23-2026

The whole night it was a very weird track, the bottom of the corners was super rough and muddy but the straightaways were slick so it made for an interesting track surface. We started 2nd in the heat race and finished there. Started 1st in the feature somehow and got sandwiched and spun 1st lap and they sent us to the back,very stupid call. Started last and decided to stay in the back and not try to advance because of the dust, then a car was spun in front of us and we spun and bumped into a tractor tire to avoid hitting the guy and they sent us to the back again. Ended up finishing 11th.

Ready to go do some racing tonight at Salina Speedway!

We went and ran at Salina last night and the car was really good in the heat race we started 2nd and led most of the race and the last 2 laps we got passed but we were happy with how the car was. We drew #1 for the A Main and the car wasn't setup right and had no traction with how slick the track was. The first lap we got banged around and the rf tire got cut so we were done.

We are headed to Salina Speedway for opening night to see what this car can do!

Day #2

We got it stripped down some more, worked on wiring,and removed some windows.

What could this be for???

Friday March 27th
Sunflower Classic

Drew the 40 and started 1st in the heat and finished 5th,the car was too loose and was a bit rusty. That put us starting 3rd in the B main and we almost had 5th but ended up 6th so we transfered to the A main. Started dead last in the A main and was planning to chill in the back while we thought everyone would wreck and some idiot came flying on the track from the outside and smoked the car right in front of us and we hit them with no time to react and damaged the front end decent. 1 lap later we started behind the guy who came flying on the track and he spun in front of us causing us to spin to avoid hitting him and they decided to black flag us for causing both cautions apparently. We will not be racing tomorrow and we will not be back again unless they can change the way they do things. We learned on the car though and hopefully we can run pretty good this season.
