81 Speedway Recap | 8/1
We’re still trying to get the monkey off our back at our home track, but we’re finally starting to find some speed at 81.
Colten started 7th in the heat race and worked his way up to 4th before getting sent to the back after getting tangled up with the 3rd-place car. Drove back from 8th to finish 5th.
We rolled off 10th in the feature, but our night took a turn coming off Turn 4 on the opening lap when we got caught up in a wreck. The impact ripped the right-front shock mount off the car, leaving the shock laying on the racetrack.
Colten said to hell with it, and drove the remaining 14 laps with no RF shock. He did everything he could to avoid the holes, keep the car underneath him, and bring it home in one piece. Somehow, he still managed to fight his way to an 8th place finish.
Not the result we were hoping for, but we’re encouraged by the speed we’ve been finding. We’ll get the car fixed up and be ready to take another shot next week.
As always, thank you to our sponsors, crew, family, and everyone who supports JOM Motorsports. We couldn’t do it without you!
