Although Steve’s car was faster he only beat out Shawn by exactly one lap and 3/4th of a car due to the driving of Shawn. I am sure everyone will come back faster in the next race this coming weekend. I assure you I plan on it!!!!
Great story Steve. That was some great racing as well. Can’t wait to run again this Saturday.
