    kinda odd?

    at the newark race almost every class winner was the leader on every lap. and in others the winners never went lower than 2nd place. just thought that was odd!

    can you tell how bored i am on this break? cant wait until september and cooler weather

    Hey Grant,
    I can't wait until september also. I seized my motor at the last Iowa race. The top end looks good but I have alot of metal shavings in the cylinders so something in the lower end must of exploded. I bought an extra motor from a friend in Iowa. I am going to his house this weekend to hopefully swap everything over. The worst part was that I was on my final lap with less than 2 miles left in third place in the B class. Anyways I guess I am bored also. I am ready to do some more racing.TAKE CARE

    I wondered why you sere sitting there. I about took that line you were stopped in. Oh **** moment lol. It was prolly your crank bearings or the rod bearing seized. Happened to mine on the first lap at Indianola this year.
