May 23 Capital City Speedway- 1st and 3rd for Dejong Motorsports!

Our second race of the year after last weeks rain out at Capital City Speedway. Paul and Jeff again were in the same heat race. Paul made his way from the back to finish 2nd. While running third Jeff had to run low into the infield to avoid a spinning car and soon there after had to leave the track with an axle problem. The crew was able to replace the axle to get the car out for the feature. In the feature Jeff started 2nd while Paul started 9th. Paul came through the field and had a great 2-3 lap battle with Jeff for 2nd place. After a late restart , Paul made a great pass on Paul Yarrow and went on the win while Jeff finished 3rd in only his second feature race. Jeff Dejong Hungry for his first win , and crew member "Killer" ,well he's hungry too.
