Team,
Love the morning races because I can spend time with the kids and relax before going to the races. Met up with Jason Snovel , Cody Tapley and another Junior whose name escapes me right now. Course was changed from last year but pretty much the same just seemed less bumpy. Pack was strung out 250-300 meters the first few laps and I was bridging gaps the first half of the race as several riders were dropped. Did I mention it was windy today? Moved into the top 10 with 5 laps to go and was 3rd with 3 laps to go. A short lived break of 3 happened but I didn't want to contribute due to wind and did not think we could stay away. I was 3rd off the last turn but 2nd let a 2 bike length gap develop out of the last turn. It was a tricky turn and too fast can take you down like in the open 3 race a solo guy with a 20 meter lead on the last lap went down ....... who'd a figgered. I went around 2nd and was gaining on 1st but he won by a bike length. Lost to 2nd by inches at the line and took third but happy with the results. Jason held on for 13th against a strong field of 100 and look for him to be a big monster next season if he Looking forward to racing with the team at Winters. Good luck to all doing the TT tomorrow.
