3rd place finish for Wade Koens

We came out to the track on Saturday May 17th, without a moment to spare.
We were still finishing up on last minute repairs as parts had just come in, when the clock read 4:15pm. With qualifying coming up soon, the team loaded the car and headed out to the track. Luckily, our shop is only a quick 10 minute drive!
Unfortunately, we missed all 3 practice sessions and knew we would have to qualify without any knowledge of how the car would feel. We took the best guesses that we could trying to set up the car after the carnage during the last race tore up our entire left front. 
We ended up qualifying 4th fastest with a 15.2. Fast time qualifier had a 14.9.
We worked on the handling of the car during the rest of the evening in preparation for the main event. It seems to have paid off as we ended the main in 3rd position. Not the finish that we want but the car was good and with some more practice laps, we should be in the mix of things during the next race slated for June 7th at the Douglas County Speedway in Roseburg, Oregon.

We had a great race going last Saturday at the Douglas County Speedway in Roseburg, Oregon. While leading the race, the car stepped out on exit of turn 2 (might have had some help) sending us straight towards the wall. The car over-corrected before hitting the wall but we collected the #11 car and when he made contact with our car it sent him airborne and ruined our great run as well. We will get the car back together and hope to make the next race on May 17th. The support that we have from our wonderful sponsors is second-to NONE and we look forward to getting this Camaro back out front soon! Umpqua Survival - RoseburgBlue OxLoggers Tap HousePepsi NEXTClint Newell Auto Group
