Weekend redo? Please!?!?!?

What a weekend! Friday I got off of work and rushed out to pick up Mike McKnight who rides to football with me some days because he is doing work experience to get some of his credits and pay his bills. I picked him up and we went to the school to find a stadium full of unhappy people, crazy long lines of people getting upset and a lot of chaos(as little as there could have been considering). Mike and I got into the parking lot and watched as the bomb squad went through a backpack with the use of their fancy new robot. MEanwhile, we were supposed to get on the bus for Trenton at 3:00 and we didn't even get inside to get the equipment until 3:30 had to eat Chikfila on the way there and most of the kids didn't get lunch so it was a welcome treat for sure.
We had a little bit of bus trouble on the way and had to stop but eventually got there about an hour later than needed and had to stretch and dress rather quickly. We ended up winning 42-7 and the boys played really well which was a must with St. Augustine staring them in the face this week. We hit the bus and rode home getting home about 1am. I loaded up my racing stuff and hit the sack.
I got up Saturday morning around 5:30, got my stuff packed and the girls up and we took off. We went through the Car Wash and then headed to the Gas Station where I was going to check all the tires before we took off(a habit I picked up from my father). On our way down 16 I got pulled over by the flashing lights. THe officer told me I had no tail lights and as he inspected things further he realized the tag on the trailer had expired as well. Great! So my racing vacation weekend is going to start like this? We ended up with a $91 ticket and spent an hour there and in the Gas Station getting the lights working correctly on the trailer then we were finally on the road again. I warmed the car up and got my first time trial, the electric fan in the car didn't work correctly so I had to fix it before our second time trial. I got it working again and we ran the second time trial. Then, the fan and fuel pump started blowing fuses. I lost the fan before 2nd round and the fuel pump during 3rd round. The other car had already done his burnout and rushed up to stage before I could even get my car cranked up. I had to take the box apart while strapped in and helmet on and change all of the wires around. I finally got that done and won the round. I ended all the way at teh quarterfinals before I really just screwed up at the finish line not hitting the brakes hard enough and breaking out more than my opponent( I know it's all Greek if you don't understand bracket racing). So day 1 was a fiasco that I should not have even won a single round, yet I beat several opponents.
Sunday we go there early and went to hear a close friend Phil Greene speak at the chapel service and then we sat for about 3 hours while they dried the track. We finally got to go run first round about 12:30. Everyone was sweating what to dial, what to do because the weather had changed so drastically from the day before. Curt and I were set, we just put a number on the car slower than what it should run and knew we would need to do some heavy braking at the end, and it worked for me. I won first and second round before the car spun third round and left me behind and I lost to a close friend Jason Rollins.
The weekend doesn't end there though, we loaded up and drove home. Got everything unloaded and settled in and I got a phone call. It was Monica Roberts, Phil Greene's step daughter, she had won her class at Super Chevy. She has been racing for about 6 months, she got no time trial on Saturday because she had to work and she won on Sunday in the class just below ours. How awesome is that! I bet here feet still havent' hit the ground yet!
So there it is, I need a redo, but I'll settle for another chance to race in November at Night of Fire. Thanks for reading and have a great day!
