Results from the US Dirt Nationals.

Paul qualified really well. He was eighth in time trials, and was running 3rd in his heat, but got really loose trying to pass the first two cars that were side by side for the lead. He crossed up and just about had it saved, but was hit me in the left rear and ended up finishing 5th. After the race it was found that rear diff was busted, so we had to put in a new $600 housing for Saturdays races. Paul started the A-main in 7th, and on lap 5 or 6, tried to pass the two cars ahead of him and got too low and spun out. By the time Paul got through the infield he was a lap down. If he would have taken it easier he could have had a top ten finish, but no...... he had to try and pass. Oh well, we had lots of fun and would do it again, but Paul's not interested in switching to dirt full time. Too messy. This brought another season of great racing to a close. The G.T. team had a number of wins, and quite a few top 3 finishes. Many thanks to Giant Tiger for their support.
