What a day.
We started the morning getting the car ready with Jeff, Hannah, Aspen, Taylor, and Hopper. Once everything was buttoned up, it was time to have some fun.
Hannah got a few practice laps with Aspen in the passenger seat, then a few more with Taylor. I even took Hannah out for a lap… and I think I might have scared her just a little. 😄 Jennifer and Jeff also got out for a lap before it was time to qualify.
Hannah and Taylor headed out for qualifying and were doing great until the rear wheel hub exploded, ending their run before they could finish the lap. That’s racing.
A huge thank you to the YORR staff for helping us get the car back to camp. With Hopper and Jeff turning wrenches, we replaced the rear hub, brake caliper, and rotor just in time for the Powder Puff race.
Jennifer climbed behind the wheel and absolutely crushed it. She was driving fast, smooth, and having an incredible run. During the race, another car rolled over and was leaking fuel, so we stopped to help. Jeff jumped out to assist with stopping the fuel leak and checking on the racers. Thankfully, everyone was okay. Once everything was safe, we finished the race.
I couldn’t be more proud of this team today. No matter what gets thrown at us, everyone steps up, helps each other, and keeps smiling.
Tomorrow is another big day!
🏁 Hannah races the Youth 1000 at approximately 9:30 AM, followed by the UTV race in the afternoon.
