Well the picture below summarizes my weekend....that is where you could find me during the mains, watching on the sidelines. I didn't make it out of the semi Friday or Sunday, and I decided not to race Saturday since it was not for ABA points. So I am putting this weekend behind and looking towards the Grands. Both Maris and I did not better our scores, so we remain the same (basically tied) in the title hunt. Kyle Bennett got two wins giving himself a shot come Grands time I believe.
Was a fun weekend hanging out with Rob, Austin and Donny. Apparently Donny takes about 4-5 hours to wake up in the morning so we had some quiet breakfasts and car rides to the track.
I want to ask everyone to remember Nic Long and pray for his recovery. He had a hard crash in the third AA main on Friday and from what I have heard has some broken ribs and a collapsed lung along with a concussion and possible other injuries (wrist?). There were some hard crashes out there and it is never fun watching your competitors and friends get hurt.
