Loaded up the 28j and the 88 and headed to Benton Speedway last night.
The 88 was driven by Danny Hicks (Gavin's dad). Danny was last in a kart competitively over 10 years ago.
He started our heat race on the front row and I had to start in the back due to a bad pill draw. Missed my set-up on the 28j but apparently had it just right on the 88. Danny went on to win the heat with me finishing third. (Gavin won his heat race too!)
Made some adjustments to the 28j and took the lead a few laps into the Feature and came home with the win. Danny finished behind me in second.
(Gavin was the winner in his feature too)
Here we all are in Victory Lane!
