Lil' Gator Moves Into 3 way tie for First Place
Yesterday @ Dragway 42 we went into the race 1 round out of First and by the time we left we had caught up to the Two Kids that were tied in First ans now there are three of them Dead even for the top honors this will make the rest of the season very interesting and nerve racking as well so will the Lil'Instigator have a shot to be the Dragway 42 Junior Super Stock Track Champion Only time will tell so keep posted for more info on this our next 42 race is July5th so lets hope that's its a great race. Spencer Red Light .001 in the Second Round but remained safe after the other two boys lost first round and gained only show up points. No pics from that race as We had a wedding the night before and needless to say it was a late night and an early morning. :) To much wine and Lots of Jr Dragsters the next morning Makes you long for your nice quiet Bedroom come the end of a race day:)

Taking Small Gator Bites Out One Week At A Time!
Okay was that a fast return LOL So far this season we have had a slow start but its just been one of those weird seasons, with my back issues its not been to fun and with Mikes work schedule its just been crazy. So the First Points meet at SMP we had a great light and broke out by so little First Round, The Lil Gator was not impressed with our dial in choice and we vowed to let him Dial his own car from now on Of coarse with a little help from Papa. Spencer had decided he didnt want to run points at Dragway 42 so We kinda looked forward to having our Sunday Morning Free, You will see later on in this post in didnt last long LOL. It was Great to see all our Racing Friends after the long winter break even though I had to answer so many questions about why I was walking funny and leaning to the right way to far.Thanks to all of you for your concerns and offers to help. Congrats to Dylan on his feature Win and Man Your new car is sweet and you r rockin...
Second Points Race One week later Won first round Yahoo Point #1, it always feels good to get that first point. Round #2 Red lite by .002 so close and worse yet same car that we lost to first round the week before , now we are wandering do we need more car time? Should we head to 42 we ask and the drivers says no we weren't going to force it. So again we packed up spent time with our friends and headed home. Points Race #3 we r getting desperate here we r outside the cut for the Bristol team and He wants to go so we say ok its Do or Die we, Make it 2 rounds Points #2  and actually made it to the semis, so we were feeling a little less pressure , But will that get us on the Bristol team? We Hope.. So the Gator decides to finally head down 2 Dragway 42 for some needed track time and that Lil Instigator Wins the whole thing 5 rounds later he is now tied for 3rd in points and missed the first two points meets, so we r now running points at 42 lol Finally The Men on our team headed down 2 42 last weekend to try and stake our claim in the points chase as I was only 4 days post surgery, I decided to stay home and rest wouldlnt you know it he makes it all the way to Semi Finals see what happens when I decide to stay behind to Rest well I didnt rest becuase I was waiting by the Phone Impaitentlay for my round by round report its so ruff when you cant be there to see I joked with them saying if I was there we could of made it to the final and hopefulley won (they didnt like hearing that lol) We are not sure yet but hope we moved up in points or at least stayed where we were, they haven't updated the website yet so we will see will he remain tied in second or change positions. We have another points meet this Sunday and back to norwalk on the 20th lets hope we r getting in the grove and can stay qualified for the Bristol team as we r in now by a small margin. So That's the Season recap so far sorry If I bored you I will add some new pics soon.

2009 Race Season Is Here
Well its actually been here, however I have had major back issues and also was locked out of this account and honestly spent all day trying to crack in as for some reason I couldn't remember what password I used this is why u should stick to just one but sense this was attached to Spencer's email account I set it up to be different but as we can see 11 yr old little boys do not like to blog so Anyhow, I am back 5 days post Back Surgery and ready to go.... I will do another post with our so far season update...Coming Soon

WHAT A SUMMER
I didn't realize it had been this long sense I updated this site, Spencer has been on a role at Drag way 42 making into the finals the last 3 races winning 1 and runner up on the other 2, he seems to really be liking the track and the competition there, at Norwalk he is still hanging on to fifth place with 8 pts and 1 runner up but hasn't had much luck at that track the last two races so when we go back out on Sept 16th he hopes to make some rounds up as he has several people closing in on him and he says hes worked to hard to let that happen so we r hoping to get him more focused and ready to race. Hes really been working on his reaction time and that has helped Papa and Dad have gotten the car figured out matter of fact last norwalk race he red lit by.005 and ran dead on his dial OUCH, is right made loosing hurt even more... Anyways we have a race tomorrow at 42 and then a two week break but i am sure we will find some place to go and race as we are firm believers that if we keep him in that car than its better than a long break:) Thanks for looking.

LIL' INSTIGATOR GETS TOP AWARD
We are back from Bristol and boy was that a long 12 days with 650 kids with race cars, Don't get me wrong it was lots of fun but boy can that many kids together just wear you out, there were so many water fights and so on I think we went through a dozen of clothes changes a day.
Spencer's car won one of the most prestigious Honors of the Event which is the COOLEST CAR AWARD it goes to only one car out of all 650 there and they picked the LIL' INSTIGATOR car it is awarded by Best Appearing and Engineered and All around Appearance of racing gear and crew:) We were very proud and surprized as let me tell you there were lots of really nice cars on the grounds as well, he did a great job racing making to second round then of coarse we dialed the car wrong and the rest well its history but we are back home safe and sound and ready for another local points race this weekend.:) We would like to thank all of you who have helped us get to Finals and we will post more pictures soon:)
