The Parker Farms, Copperstate Tire Monte Carlo ran the April 5th and April 19th Tucson
events. The April 5th event was not our best night, but there were a lot of factors out of
our control.
As we move on to the April 19th event things brighten somewhat. Qualified 2nd by .09
seconds. Finished 3rd. Two years ago we would have been ecstatic about a 3rd and now, we
find ourselves somewhat disappointed. The worst of the night was the on track
unintentional contact between our car and the 13 which resulted in the 13 spinning and
hitting the outside wall and we continued on with only minor paint damage.
The 13 car of course being the only car that we are somewhat friendly with. All parties
agreed that it was a racing incident and we will all move on to brighter moments. Victor
was put to the back of the field for the incident. Victor had to use up his tires to get
back to 3rd and therefore couldn’t push any harder for the win.
We had decided to sit out the April 26th event do to busy schedules and lack of funding,
but the track is having issues with car count so they have offered 2 free tires for that
date which of course was enough for Victor and I to agree to attend the event.
The May 3rd date will find Craftsmen Truck driver Ron Hornaday competing in a late model
with us. We hope that you can attend this event as it should bring a large car turn out
and be a good opportunity for Victor. It would be great to have a large fan section to
support us on this occasion. Hoping to have Chuck LaHorgue attend, but I haven’t been
able to confirm the date with him at this point.
