My Mustand 2 has won 8 out of 9 main events this year at my home track, www.douglasspeedway.com ..  It has also given me the track record on this 4/10 mile track at 17.993.  I have one more race on Sept 23, and it is looking like it will net me my 5th championship in the last 10 years.  Been a great car and it owes me nothing!!  Thanks for letting me share this with you.

Been helping my nephew all year long, made the mistake of letting me drive now I have the fever! Got my car finished end of last month. Even though the season is over now I got a little seat time, first race out went into turn 1 and throttle stuck wide open so I went for a ride! Long story short, got some of the bugs out first night!
I did win  a heat race which is a confidence builder, but isnt the feature. The short time I raced this year best finish in the feature was 4th. 2 weeks ago had a wreck and bent an axle, need rearend so I parked it til I get one.
What a rush! Wish I would have started racing a long time ago!
Theres mud in your eye!
