Tonight was a night. Let's start with the STR. Briggs went fast time out of 20 cars and then 5th to 3rd in his heat race. With the handicap, he was slated to start 13th in the feature, but a car scheduled to start in front of him did not start, so Briggs started 12th. He and our #78 were looking good and moving forward when a couple of cars got together low in turns 3 and 4. Briggs checked up, but got collected anyway. At this point, the car was still ok, ready to restart and, with any luck, move forward again. Operative word- luck. A car a few spots ahead of Briggs did not fire on the restart which bottled cars up. It was then that Briggs broke a shock. As a result, he pulled in and DNF. Scored 15th.
Next, the 600. Briggs went 4th to the 5th in his heat race, missing the handicap. Started 16th in the feature and again, was moving forward. He and Dave Bodine's 99 🍊 Crush had a couple close calls in turns 3 and 4. Briggs did some great driving to avoid getting collected in those close calls and the worst that resulted was a loss in some spots. Finished 11th.
Just one of those nights. All videos were posted previously. This is the only worthwhile picture I took. Sorry. I was not feeling the best tonight.
