The last day of racing at ARC was, in a word, AWESOME!!
Here are today's race pictures, including some of Johnny's electric Zagis:

Sorry for crashing your Zagis, Johnny!
Send me a bill if its over $15. You owed me a clutch-bell from Wenatchee.
My new swaybar (from our friends in Hayden, ID) shaved 3-5 seconds off of each lap compared to the last time I was out there. Plus, the traction was much better due to the recent rain. I stuck with the bow ties this time and it seemed to work out great. The truck was much more predictable and stayed nice and planted around the corners.
For the first time EVER, I TQed over Torry. In the A-Main, I led for a total of 15 of 39 laps...not bad. I beat the old man in the pit (by roughly 4 seconds)-- well, we can't be too hard on him because he had his cane ;-) But alas, Torry would not back down and fought his way back to win and led the last 9 laps. I finished about 15 seconds behind him after choking pretty badly on the last few laps.
Thanks again to Jeremy and Rachel for putting on a great, albiet short, racing season at ARC. Its a great track and fun, scenic place to race.
I'll be seeing some of you next week at Wayne's World!!
Party on!
