Scott and Zeke are on the way home from Winder. They went up to complete an ARCA car for Mark Gibson. Mark has been extremely helpful to us. His support has definitely put us light years ahead of our internal schedule.
We are still uncertain when we'll race next. I don't think Langley is a good option for us. The track is 750 miles away and it takes so much money just to go practice. We would really like to find some money for the Concord race and I have a hankering to go to Bristol.
Joseph would really stroke out those first few laps at Bristol. It is by far the most impressive short track ever built. The only concrete date we've set is the race at Gresham the end of October. Pun intended folks. Of course, we need sponsors for that one too!
On a sad note: Our puppy Ellie (short for Eleanor) passed away Friday evening. The girls were devastated. She had a spunky personality and will be missed. :(

It's The Getting There That's all the Fun
We know. We Know. WE KNOW. Most people think we are crazey to start a race team Way Down Here.
Scott doesn't hunt. He doesn't fish. We don't have any "adult" toys...bass boats, buggies, etc. I detest shopping. We met racing. And we love cars. And we know a lot of people from our racing days.
Everybody needs a hobby. Ours is racing. Work keeps the lights on but racing makes the work bareable.
We have always maintained many of our racing relationships in the ARCA and Truck series. Using those connections, we are slowly building up a small USAR Pro Cup race team. Scott and our Crew chief Zeke, are doing the work on the cars and I'm attempting to get back into the marketing and administrative groove.
We are on twitter, and soon will be on Facebook. We are working with a local graphics whiz and a website and other marketing material. And I'm going to tell ya'll all about it right here.
Our fondest memories of our years racing are the roadtrips, the mile after endless miles spent in wiggle wagons, sleeping, riding and telling tales. I may even share a few of those with all ya'll too!
