NEW JERSEY ARCA RACE WITH ARCA 06, 0 PETERSON & 48 JAMES HYLTON

[TURTLEDOVER]

THE NEW JERSEY MOTORSPORTS PARK ARCA RACE TURNED OUT TO BE A BEAUTIFUL DAY OF RACING AFTER TWO DAYS OF RAIN. IN PRACTICE BOTH CARS SUFFERED A LITTLE DAMAGE, BUT IT WAS REPAIRABLE. BOTH BARRY FITZGERALD & DWIGHT LAIRD MADE THE RACE. SATURDAY NIGHT BACK AT THE CAMPGROUND WATCHED THE CUP RACE AND MET THE SPONSORS OF THE 06 CAR, ( FOUR SEASONS HEATING & AIR ), FROM EGG HARBOR TWP. IN NEW JERSEY AND GOT SOME CRASHED RACE CAR SHEETMETAL FROM A SECRET SPOT FOR THE KIDS THEY HAD WITH THEM.
MIKE NIMMO TOOK THE OVER THE WALL GUYS FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTHERN OHIO GOT TO GO SEE THE WILWOOD BOARDWALK & A FEW OTHER, SHALL WE SAY, "ESTABLISHMENTS". SUNDAY MORNING THEY WERE ALL DRAGGING FROM GETTING BACK TO THE TRACK AT 4 AM, SO WE MADE SURE THE PIT WAS ALL READY AND SET-UP FOR THEM.
ALTHOUGH DWIGHT IN THE 0 CAR PULLED IN ON THE FIRST LAP TO POSSIBLY PREVENT ANY THING HAPPENING TO THE TEAMS SPEEDWAY CAR WE HAD TO USE, BARRY IN THE 06 HAD OVERHEATING BRAKES AND BROUGHT THE CAR HOME IN 24th PLACE.
I WENT DOWN TO HELP JAMES HYLTON (48) PIT HIS CAR AND WAS THE REAR TIRE CATCHER, DWIGHT CAME FROM THE 0 CAR TO HELP AND WAS HYLTONS GASMAN. JAMES HAD TO COME IN WITH A BROKEN INTAKE MANIFOLD BOLT, AND FINISHED 26th.

THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR ANOTHER GREAT WEEKEND !!!
