Wisconsin Takes The Title
Well for those of you that didn’t get to make the trip to the team finals you missed a good time. This year we took a group of 34 racers to Martin, Michigan for the Division 5 Thunder Team Finals and out of 6 teams we came in 5th. With Team Wisconsin doing a great job and taking the title away from US 131. M.C.I.R. had a tremendous show of support from all of our team members. We started pulling into US 131 on Wednesday I think Trent was actually the first one from our team there. He was ready to get the job done. Things didn’t end up going trent’s way he ended up blowing his car up so he had to run Mark’s Dodge and it just wasn’t the same. Aaron Wright had some trouble with his car but with the help of his teammates he was able to get it back together and make the main event. John Boes did well in the Gamblers race’s making a little $$$ Our Jr dragster kids did a wonderful job! This year we took 10 Jrs. and after first round we still had 8 in the main event Kelsey Kiger made it to the Semi’s but no one could stop Schuyler Turner He was on fire from the first pass to the last pass. Schuyler won the Main Event for the Jr. Dragster Class. What an exciting day for Schuyler he has been running great all year and it has paid off because now he has won the Iron Man of Drag Racing. Not many adults can say that. Then on Sunday he came back and ran the Gamblers race and won that. Way to Go Schuyler We are proud of you!! Keep up the good work.
We want to thank every one who took the time to be part of our points and our team here in Michigan.
