5/16

After last weekends win at Lincoln Speedway, Cory and the team were looking forward to the World of Outlaws visit on Wednesday night. Unfortunately after a long six hours at the track, the rain arrived and postponed the event a day. Thursday night the track looked good for early warm ups, but dried and was very slick for time trials. Cory went out near the end and turned the 17th fastest time, just missing the heat inverts. They added some water to the track and it seemed better as the heats started. Cory started 5th in his heat and worked his way to a strong 3rd place finish. He fell one spot short of the all important dash. The track again appeared to be staying decent as they continued to add water before the A main. Mike and Cory discussed the car and made the changes they thought necessary. Cory started 17th and was on the move right from the start. A couple yellow flags helped with double file restarts and Cory was up to 6th at the last caution. The car was getting better as the race went on and Cory moved to 4th at the finish. It was his first top 5 finish with the WOO and although everyone was thrilled, Cory would have liked to have had another five laps.

Friday and Saturday night at Williams Grove Speedway were the exact opposite side of the spectrum. Cory did not time very well either night and the team could not get a good handle on the car at all in qualifying heats. On Friday he started 11th in the B main and worked his way to 5th, just missing the main as the first alternate. On Saturday it was not so good as he started 17th in the B and finished 14th. Not such a good ending to a week that started very promising.

This weekend Cory will be at Williams Grove and Lincoln for regular handicapped shows. See you there!!!!
