Trying to wind down from a long day of racing....It actually wasn't as long as usual which surprised me. Today was the first day that we enjoyed the adventure of our motor home and I would have to say that it was wonderful! We arrived at the race and Momma and her babes hung out in the air conditioning while Daddy prepped the cars. Daddy was happy because the trailor stayed clean and Momma was happy because she had the kids contained and she stayed cool! Qualifying began about 1 hour after we arrived and for some reason I did not expect the boys to qualify well, although I did not make that a publicly know fact because I didn't was to get them discouraged. But much to my surprise Jhadyn qualified 3rd and Jhett 4Th.
We waited patiently for the lower mains to race and then it was time. The wonderful crackling star spangled banner was played over the intercom and by crackling I mean the sound system needs a replacing..LOL... My stomach was in knots as it always seems to be before the boys race and it was then time. Before you knew it flying out of the hot shoot with no fear at all was first my Lil Poo Bear (Jhadyn) and then Mr. Spaghetti (Jhett). They were doing well keeping their line and control of the car on a slippery track. Then all of a sudden Hadley was trying to pass Jhett and spun him out. I hate to see that.....poor girl received a charge call and sent to the rear. I was happy and so was Jeremy though that Jhett and the car were okay and a caution was thrown they all lined back up and the race went on. Jhadyn passed and then so did Jhett they kept control of the race even though the little Alcorn kid had a half track advantage of the lead. Seriously though I really did not care of the standings of my boys when the race was done I was just constantly praying that they would come out safe. As I always do. The checkered flag was thrown and They did it!! Both placed in the top! Jhett finished 2nd in his first points race and Jhadyn 3rd in his first points race!! So proud of my lil drivers!!
