Well its hard to beleive Rd 4 of 13 has come and gone, but it has. The staff with GNCC showed once again why racers and family will drive hours to compete in the best offroad series in the world, from the track layout, the food, to the ladies at sign up, thank you for all you do for not only me but the other racers too!

Now to the race. After all the rain we got during the week, you would think it would be a mudhole, well this is Union clay and it handled the rain and made for an awesome track Sunday morning. I got up put on my FlyRacing Gear and headed to the line ready to do work. Being my home track there seem to be a few more butterflies when Rodney screamed teeeeen seconds and Ricky Towery stared at his watch. Pumped up I timed his waving of the flag perfect and 1 kick and my Obermeyer Yamaha/RainesRidingUniversity/Offroadviking.com Yamaha YZ 85 launched off. To the 1st turn my Kenda Tires hooked up and I found myself in 1st with the holeshot. I was able to stay in 1st the entire race,but after getting a pittboard from my dad and Sonny, I realized I was in top 3 overall. With the white flag out I was in a good position to get my 2nd overall podium. But I know now just how hard that is with the competition this series has. I had trouble getting around a lapper and had to settle for 1st out of 26 in my class and 4th over all out of 139 racers. Dissappointed as I crossed the finish line, I understand now that it was a great win and a great day!! This is my 1st year being in the top 3 overall hunt and Im learning each week from those top 3 guys. Mentally you have to run 2 races in one and each week Im getting closer. Just keep working hard and being positive and my day will come, this I truely beleive!
