Mixed results at "The Billy Bob..."
Once again a promising heat race victory led to high expectations, unfortunately the feature results were less than what Team Feger is capable of.
A decent qualifying lap had Jason starting towards the front of the heat race and he delivered the goods, passing the likes of Darrell Lanigan and Steve Francis on the way to a heat race victory. Listening to the race via The DRC, I believe it was Chris Nunn that I heard exclaim:
"That Feger is a MADMAN!!"
The elation was short lived however as tire troubles plagued the #25 car and Jason quickly resorted to defense. While the tires were all holding air this time, a wrong choice in compound on the ever changing racing surface threw Team Feger a curve ball. Pitting early, the guys made some changes making the car better however Jason was never able to be a contender.
As soon as we find someone to put up big money for spectacular heat race runs...WE ARE FRIGGIN' THERE.
The team did learn a few things from this experience and there is a short list of things that will be done different in the future.
Racing "outside the box" is gonna have some challenges.
Since Team Feger is capable of much better results...I will take a moment to razz them a little.
Kristy says you need to return someone'z back up beeper...and she wants a dollar.
The Feger race party is less than a month away and we've got our good friend Jeff Wesselhoff from 'The Stain Shop' in Pontiac, IL working up something way cool for this year's bash...stay tuned.
