Bob Ahrendsen May 2006 Racing Report
Just wanted to drop everyone a line, and tell you how we have been doing so far this year.
Our racing season started with car show on April 8th, followed by a day of practice.
We had 2 cars on display and practice went very good with no bugs, except a throw out bearing that needed some adjustment. About 30 cars showed up overall.
Our 1st season opening race was on April 28th listed below are our finishes.
