Hangar 30 Wednesday Night Kick Off
We kicked off Hangar 30 last night with a refreshed layout. Brian fabricated some beautiful new sweepers that perfect the concept he whipped up with Clifton last season at the community center. They bring welcome improvement to some key areas of the track, offering both the precision of a hard barrier, but the forgiving character of dots. Truly the best of both. Many thanks to George and Mike Anderson with the build assist. I attach a picture of the results. Come out to race the hangar, you won't be disappointed.
With several of our Wednesday night regulars currently engaged in shenanigans at the IIC, our numbers were low. But rather than get down about it, we plowed through three quals and a main and wrapped up by 10:30. That's getting with it on a Wednesday! And while I expect the absent racers to be back in action in the weeks to come, we also added some new racers in Novice. So, things are looking good.
Gary Lewis kept it real in Scale Spec which had the biggest field for the evening. Both John and Franko brought some heat, but the G-Man stayed cool and set the new track record and took the win after bouncing around the order during the main. In Novice, Ken showed some confident clean laps and to my eye is ready for Scale Spec at any time. In Stock 1/12th, a fired up Bodine showed he is still the boss, and Stuart was all over Stock Touring, though Jesse dug in, found speed, and come the main was able to keep the youngster honest.
We will be back in the gym on the 14th, and the Hangar on the 18th. Until then, NORA is firing up their program this weekend at the Skagit Fairgrounds in Mt. Vernon.
Results attached.
