Spartan Sprints Rained out

Feature got under way ok but around 10 laps or so the rains came. Good thing I went to my truck it started pouring. Tom Fedewa was on the move on the outside having a good run.

Taylor Fern was doing good then spun out just B4 the rains hit.

Jim Heeney clobbered the wall

when Mike Austrakas and he tangled in hot laps. Mike had his hand up his Dad told me but such is racing. Kevin Feeney loaned an axle, Steve Davis loaned a drag link. 3 different teams were helping Jim get humpty dumpty back together.

Car developd a smoking problem when it went back out. So missed the heat, problem continued in at the feature so Jim called it a night.

Earlier Gavin Hunyady had no where to go when a car spun in front of him ending his night.

Was still a good show w/ that many cars, watching Fedewa on the outside doin it the hard way was worth it.

Does Chris Hettinger have a ride for this year?

I know he supported the Spartan series last year.

Thanks
