Friends From The Track...




We just wanted to share pictures of a Family Friends This Is Madison Edwards , our Families have been Friends for Quite some time and her and Spencer use to be pretty close when they were younger but you know how kids are when they start to get bigger and go to different schools but they still support each other on Race Days even if they have to race each other, that makes it kind of hard for bththe kids and th rents but at least if one wins over the other, It makes you feel happy that your friends get to move towards the big finish ,Maddie joined us down at Dragway 42 for the first time and just like Spencer she was having Engine Problems but she got to have a few passes down the track and every pass helps them learn more and more.. Maddie just got this new car which is totally cool and we wanted to say Nice Car Madison and Not to worry Your Faithful crew Of Daddy, Mommy and Kurt will get it running soon and you can take over from there, But most of all remember to enjoy yourself and have a great time.....

Week #2 Results Runner Up Again!




Okay we are back with race results from Week #2 of the 2007 Lil' Instigators Race Season, So Saturday night was our Season Opener for Our Local track and well that didn't go so Hot, The Engine didn't work even close to how it should and needless to say, the driver cant get to far in the ranks with a car that is having problems! But The GOOD NEWS is that after that run, Team Lil' Instigators Crew tore that engine down and Discovered the Problem, Fixed it and we were Ready to head off to Track # 2 on Sunday.. So now that the engines was Hopefully fixed we took the first time trials and were all a little happier to see the car and the Driver do well in the practice runs... Off to the race.... Spencer seems to be getting more and more daring each race, trying to play games with the opponent on the other side and is even learning how to stay ahead of them just enough and cross the Finish line, Thankfuly we ended up in the Finals against the same little boy as last week and Unfortunately Team Lil' Instigators Crew didn't dial in quite low enough, we Dialed him at 12.82, five lower than the previous pass as thinking he would pick up a little and wouldn't you know it Spencer crossed the Finish Line First but As Many of you may know in Drag Racing its not just who gets to the Finish line first but the Dial in And Reaction time and so on, Spencer broke out by 100th of a second meaning he went faster than we dialed the car and well that gives the race to the other child,Congrats to Him but Team Lil' Instigator is Holding out Strong Hopes for Next Week to be the First Place winner, We will have to wait and see....Maybe Thrid Time will be the Charm???

The First Race Of SEASON

We started out this Morning and Head to Dragway 42.. This would be Spencer's first time at this track and the first race with his new motor, So the motor gave us problems but we still managed to get something out of that Lil' Instigators car! Believe it or not He got Runner Up First race of the season and that made Us all happy, and hopefully this means the rest of our long season will go in a good direction!
A little info about the Lil' Instigator
Spencer is a 9 year old little boy who has grew up in a family of Drag Racer and is now on his second year of racing himself, Yes that right they let little kids race....
He idolizes his sponsor Terry McMillen over as Hoosier Thunder Motor sports, Who is the owner and driver of the Instigator Top Fuel Funny Car.. A Mother cant ask for a better role model :)
So we will use this blog to keep our Family and Friends updated with Spencer's Race Season as we get really busy with this so this will be a nice spot for you to come and check it out...
