First I wanna apologize to all of my fans & followers for not posting up dates every Sunday like I should . Between working several 12hr shifts at the hospital constantly, children, home & racing. It’s been a whirlwind around here an I don’t take enough time to update everyone who supports my little team . 
🏁🏁🏁
Alright on to this past weekend April 22, 2023. My big brother Jason Brown, my boyfriend Chris & myself all made the decision since the beach bash was canceled at Lake View Motor Speedway we would travel to Sumter Speedway an give it a shot for the night . Weather was perfect , track was awesome & we we’re all excited to be behind the wheels of our three cars again . Since a good bit of our races for the beginning of the season have been called because of Mother Nature, a force we can’t argue with . It rained a good bit before the program got started so we knew we would have a slippery, sticky track to run on . I go out for hot laps & the car has a push that feels like a Mack truck. I run my few laps an pull in . I go to Chris who is always & I means always my go to person even when we aren’t running the same tracks . He always tells me what he thinks will help since I’m learning how to do the whole set up thing because most of the time I’m a one man team since we both run 3 different series . He gives me the pointers an I go with it . Qualifying comes up I go out car is perfect the first two laps it drove itself then the third lap oh no what happened lol tires heated up an it was all going back to crap . I qualified 13th out of 21 cars . 😡 I was not happy at all with that being I am no were near use to being that far back in the field anymore . I knew it was gonna be a fight for survival night. I go back to Chris with my concerns an we talk it over I go back to the car an Im working on it again . Keeping my fingers crossed this time it’s right. Feature time felt like it took forever. The thunder bomber guys I guess was having a enduro race an Sissy was giving those guys the business over the race reciever . FINALLY ITS OUR TIME !! We pull on the track an I’m like ok we may have a shot if these guys infront of me can keep their noses clean ! That was a joke those guys are ruff an beat an bang to the end . The race starts we have caution after caution. One restart I got shoved from the back in turn one between two cars that we’re fixing to wreck, I was committed with my hands on the wheel before I got hit . Well needless to say it shoved me between the two cars. The car to my right we wheel hit it snatched my wheel with my hand in tack, I hear a couple pops an instant pain . I drove the rest of the race with one hand cant tell you how many laps cause it seemed forever . Last restart we get going my big brother gets taking out by the black hatch crew going for the lead in turn one & two. Yet again another restart then I was running 4th. They put those guys behind me an I knew my brother was there an he was faster then me . We sailed off an I hugged the bottom letting my brother get by without blocking him an cutting the rest off so he could get back to the front . White flag falls Im running 5th with one hand, checkered flag flys an I finish 5th with one hand in a lot of pain an swelling instantly . I MADE IT I SURVIVED THE SUMTER CROWD !!! We load the cars up an I tell Chris I need to go to the hospital . We go an we set there till 6 am Sunday morning . We finally all was home an in our beds by 8 a.m. Sunday morning .. Got a splint , meds for pain, an the pleasure of learning to do everything with my dominant hand until my left hands heals with the fractures an broken ligaments.. There’s my story (Race Recap) 😂😂 Now time to get ready for our next rumble at Lake View !!
