An update from Leadfoot after his 3rd place finish:
Thursday 8-16-12 we shook the cobwebs off the #73 Sportsman car at Thompson. I was amazed how rusty I was at going so slow (compared to a modified). After 3 very short rounds of practice, I was just starting to get reacquainted with driving the slower, higher, heavier, slow-or-no-response- handling of a sportsman car.
By feature time, I was ready to go for it out on the
track. I took the green in 10th, behind all of the guys
that have been running near the front of the races each week. Car was going
pretty good, our Nat’s open rules engine seemed to gain on nearly everyone down
the straights. Finished 3rd.
Saturday the 18th we will be heading to Seekonk
with the Modified to hopefully run as quickly or maybe even better than our
first trip to Seekonk.
Upcoming schedule…. We will be attempting to make every race
on the vMRS, sprinkling in another race or two with the sportsman car, and I
will be helping out with the Tinio 44 car on the whelen tour as
Spotter.
Cheers,
Larry
