TO THE FRONT!

Racin' Mason took the win again this past Saturday evening. Arthur Raceway changed the format a bit by adding another qualifying race to the evening. They are calling it the "shootout". The field is inverted with the fastest driver in the rear of the pack for 6 laps. This race goes into calculating where you will start the feature race. Since Mase won the prior week, he had to start in the rear of the field for all 3 of the qualifying races (Heat 1, Heat 2 and Shootout). He qualified with the best time for his class. Between his finishing positions for the races and his qualifying time, he sat on the pole for the feature race. The good news is he was able to hold on to the lead for the entire race but it wasn't as easy as last time. The bad news is he has to start in the rear again next week. It's really something to see him improving his skill every week. We have so many people come up to us at the track and comment on what a good driver he is. When it's your kid, you always think they are the best, it's nice to hear other people say the same thing.
