HEAT Racing: Saturday Race at Lonesome Pine 9-20-2008
Saturday Race at Lonesome Pine 9-20-2008
the temperature in the seventies, the weather was perfect for racing on Saturday at Lonesome Pine Speedway. Major changes were made to the car including springs and sway bar. Burton and Justin had also been working on the set-up for the Good Year tires. H.E.A.T. qualified in 4th place but felt they could have done better. The 50-lap race started off a little edgy. The #21 Monte Carlo got bumped going into the third turn on the first lap and Burton had to work to hold onto the car, loosing several positions. H.E.A.T. fought their way back to finish the race in 5th place. With only one caution in the race, the laps ran out. Burton said H.E.A.T. easily had a Top 3 car.
Our drivers were happy with the finish. As usual, they received nice comments
about the car and the announcer mentioned the H.E.A.T. Program several times.
The pits were opened to the crowd after the race and several autographs were signed.
