Great season starting momentum!

Cedar lake evolved into another good night for the protofab team. Leading into the night I was a bit apprehensive what was in store for us, we started by leaving the shop an hour late, minor tow rig road side maintenance for a blowin turbo tube and two missed corners (yes we've been there a hundred times) later we were at the track. Thankfully from there things took an upturn.

John opened the night with another third place finish after starting tail end in a 6 car heat. This lead to a front row start for the challenge race where school was in session and John was the professor! The 14 was a rocket ship and John sailed to a commanding half track lead by the time the checkers flew. This made us the top point scorer for the night and the 0 pill was pulled so no invert for the main putting the 14 on the pole. At the green we slotted into third until a little moment with a lapper slid us back to fourth. We ended the night with a strong 5th place finish.

Thankfully the weather held a pleasant temp all night allowing some fans to make the trip to the pits after the show. It was great to see some old friends and meet some new young fans! Looking forward to the rest of the season see you all at the track again soon!

  1. I would also like to thank both tracks for getting the races in with good racing and the fans for sitting in the cold. Also all the drivers for all the great racing i was able to seen this weekend. Last I like to thank the Protofab racing for letting me ride with them and Cole for a place to sleep.

    PS John the car look great and fast this weekend. Good luck to all this summer. IF that ever comes!!
    Thank you
