The newest drag racer gears up!

[YENKO DEUCE REGISTRY]

School started today, soccer is almost back in full swing, so we will slow down the racing schedule a bit. We plan to hit the PA State Jr Championship race at Maple Grove on 9/12, this will be the first time Benjamin will only race against other 12.90 cars. This is key, since thus far he's been up against other kids who have been racing for up to 8 years already and are running 8.90 & 7.90's. The older kids are slamming the tree along with their dial-in's, and a big track like MGR has several really good racers. So, it will be nice to run against other cars that have just as much variability as ours.

We would like to race at South Mountain Dragstrip (just south of Carlisle, PA) in late Sept or early Oct since that is where I started racing with my uncle. Just a little 1/8 mile track, but its gotten totally refurbed - along with a name change.

They also have a special Halloween Race at Englishtown on 10/31, we might hit that as our finale.

Will take more pics next time, might have some from this past weekend as I saw the track photographer taking a few snaps, [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]
