JACKSON NATIONALS RECAP! 8/15-16/24
Hot Laps and Qualifying were both in one session and I qualified 1st in my group, 13th overall out of 40+ cars!!! Car and everything felt amazing.
Heat race I started outside pole and on the warm up lap, noticed that my zus fasteners on the right side of my hood came out. I held on as much as I could, ended up 4th. You can see in the picture below how my hood was stuck up and my sight (especially in the corners) was very limited! SKETCHY!!! I know I could have done better if it hadn’t been for my hood.
For the A feature on Thursday, my fuel line came off and dumped fuel all over my lap. I pulled in and had a DNF.
I JUST prequalified for the A feature with the points I had from Thursday!!! Hot laps went pretty good on Friday, just had some brake issues. It is not a great feeling to know I don’t have brakes before I take a green flag!😅 Luckily, when the track is locked down, you don’t need much brake.
In the final A feature of nationals, I started in the back and through a few restarts, gained some confidence. Again, my brakes were failing and I just couldn’t believe I had made the A feature at Jackson Nationals!!! I got a little crossed up mid race in turn 4 and a car clipped me. I just tipped over and bent a few things on my car. I ended up with another DNF, but left with lots of knowledge.
I am so blessed and grateful to have raced this race and to be able to do what I do!!! HUGE CONGRATULATIONS TO MY COUSIN Brandon Bosma FOR WINNING JACKSON NATIONALS!!!!!!!! Brandon has helped me immensely in my racing career and is an extraordinary racer himself!!
Thanks to my sponsors, supporters, and everybody who makes this all possible for me!!
