WERA Round 3 at Beaver Run,PA June 19th and 20th

Saturday was a 20 lap endurance race. We made a few gear changes in practice and found a good base line set up. There was 17 riders in this class ranging from 125cc to 650cc. My 125 will not get off the line like a 650 will ,so i tried to get up to speed and run down the leaders.With four laps to go it started to pour down rain. I was running slick tires ,so i just tried to keep the bike up right and finish the race. I ended up 7th. I was just happy to finish. Sunday we changed gearing trying to lower the lap times,but didn't seem to help so we ended up going back to where we started. The 125 race was a battle the whole race. I got the hole shot but the #9 bike was all over me the whole race. On the last lap going into turn 1 he passed me on the brakes.I got him back going into the last corner i ran it in harder and got a good drive up the inside to beat him to the flag for the win.Formula 2 race was another good battle with the #9 bike. We were fighting for a top ten finish with the 650's. This time he passed me going into the last corner with a rider in front of us.I got the better drive out of the corner and got by them both to take 8th in the race.I would like to thank Jen for hanging out in guy world all weekend with us.
