The 2020 Southern Indoor Championship is over. Racetime Entertainment put on another great event! Overall I was really pleased with my weekend. My Serpent cars ran great all weekend!

In Nitro Truggy, I qualified 10th in the A main. In the main, I had a screw back out on my ackerman plate which put me out the race midway.

In Nitro Buggy, I qualified 2nd in the B main. I bumped up from the B main and started 16th on the grid for the A main! My car had the speed it took to make the podium, I just had to drive. After a long 30 minute main, I was able to finish 4th!!!

In Ebuggy I qualified 8th in the A main. In A1, By the first lap I was running 2nd and gaining on first. Then first broke and handed me the lead. I was able to gap the rest of the field and hang on to the lead for the win.In Ebuggy A2, I made some changes and they didn’t work like I thought they would. Since I finished 1st in A1, it came down to time between me and 1st in A2 and he got the overall by less than 3 seconds. I’m super stoked and the second place finish!!!

Thanks to my family, my gf, and all my sponsors for their continued support! See y’all at the next one!
