This weekend is districts!!!

Post by j.m. »

Tomorrow we set up track and event room, get some kids registered early, and do a little testing. Sat. is the race. Our John Deere green flat wedge car took 1st in every run it raced at the pack race in Jan., finishing in first. Hopefully it does well in districts. Last year we ended 6th with the Lambo police car w/ lights, and this year, My son said "forget the looks, lets win". Sooooo, hopefully we do well. it will be his last year, and the car is pretty agressive all around. We finished up re-prepping everything, and assembling. Allighment seems to be right on, and fully lubed. We'll find out tomorrow night with a test run. If our time is at or around 2.900-3.000, we should do well.
