SWRC Race in San Antonio 5-6-06 and 5-07-06

What a weekend!! Full of excitement - Thursday night in S.A. they had a hail storm and 100 mph wind gusts! The track had to be dried and put back together as the barriers had been moved by the high winds and rain. We practiced all Friday afternoon until Austin hit a barrier full of sand bags! NOT GOOD - Austin was fine, but sand got all into the motor and carberator. After Ryan was able to clean it out - Austin got back out there and practiced some more. Friday night more bad weather and lots of rain. Saturday morning was a bust - rain rain and more rain. Finally by 2:00 the track was dried and put back together. Getting a late start meant racing late into the night. Austin was running very competitive times and keeping up with the front runners. He finished Saturday with a first place in his class and a 3rd place overall. Sunday was great- we got an early start and our driver was back ready to go. Austin finished Sunday with a 1st place in his class and a 2nd place finish overall.He hit more than a few barriers and bent alot of equipment, but Ryan didn't skip a beat - he got us up and running again before each race. Thank you Ryan - I know we say it alot, but we really appreciate all you do! Not too mention Austin -thinks you are the coolest thing ever!!! Grammy and Paw Paw made the drive to San Antonio to watch their boy drive and we also got a visit from David and Aunt Kathy - Thanks so much for comming out and showing your support. The fall SWRC series starts in September and we are all looking forward to it.
