Saturday Night Stock/Super Stock Combo: Rained out in the Semifinals (still in competition at 4 cars)
Sunday: Round 1
While the main events did not go well as we continued to struggle with traction issues, things settled down long enough to get down to the final four cars in Saturday night's Stock/Super Stock Combo. We were in the staging lanes for the semifinals when persistent sprinkles forced us to call it a night, and the purse was split evenly among us. During the following week, we checked over and fixed some rocker arm/polylock issues at Sloan Engines, and while there, installed all of the new rear suspension components from Calvert Racing and Moneymaker Racing, including the split rear mono-leaf springs, CalTracs, and adjustable rear shocks.

The CalTracs cured our traction troubles, but we remain down on power... that is until we discovered that somehow the ignition timing had moved about 8 degrees. Readjusting the timing should wake it back up!
