Trevor: August 2008 Archives

Uncle S. was in town to see the boys race, so the pressure was on. The boys raced well in the humid heat.

Broc's 85 Open class was a fast group as usual. Racing against the older faster kids will prove to be a good learning experience as Broc moves up through the groups in the future.

Cole scored 2-2 in his 65 Junior class to take second overall. He showed an incredible determination in repeatedly catching and trying to pass Zane, who raced well as always - nice job, Zane.

Broc's 85 Junior class was a nailbiting race and came down to the wire. In the first heat, Broc didn't get the best gate choice and ended up with a slower start. He took third in the heat. In the second, he benefitted from a fall and quickly jumped from third to first, a lead he held and grew all the way to the finish. With the second heat counting for more than the first, Broc's 3-1 was good enough for the overall win.

Trevor continues to show improvement, getting better starts and restarting like a rocket after a fall in the 65 Senior class race.

It was also good to see Luke V. who came to the races with his leg in a cast. Luke had a terrible accident recently and is on the road to recovery... get well soon Luke!
