May 2 - Festiva Racing opens the season at Clinton County Raceway with a top 5.
Festiva Racing would return to Clinton County Raceway with high hopes heading into 2008. After a great season last year the #46 looked to pick up where he left off. In the pill draw David would pick #3 giving him the pole for the 3rd heat race. Festiva Racing would hope to get a good hot lap session after having to swap the motor over the winter and were trying a new size of tires. That wouldn't happen as we would get about 1/2 lap before a yellow flag would come out and end hotlaps. This would leave the #46 with a lot of questions what the car would do in the heat.
In the heat David would enjoy the pole but it wouldn't last long. Down the front straight the #38 would get by on the high side. The #61 would follow on the outside and drop the #46 back to 3rd. On the frontstraight the #85 would then get by moving David back to 4th. Going into turn 3 the next lap the #15 would come in way too hot and slam the #46 in the left front. This would damage the wheel, and fender but David would go on. On the restart it was clear the Festiva was running out of top end. The smaller tires that were being tested was killing the #46's straight away speed. David would ride along and finish in 4th spot as he couldn't gain anything. This would leave the Festiva Race team scrambling to change all 4 tires to what we ran last year for the feature race.
In the feature David would be starting from the 12th spot the worst starting spot for David in a season opener. On the start is was pretty much chaos up front. Cars were bouncing off each other and it looking like a pinball game. The #25 would shoot down into the infield and the same thing would happen again in turn 3 and 4 as car shot high and low. After the first lap David found himself in 7th place by avoiding the accidents. He would then pass the #64 to move into 6th spot. He would then begin to work on the #8m. This would be a great battle at the #46 was better coming off turn 2 but the 8m was faster coming off turn 4. After a couple of yellows these 2 cars were still battling when the #38 would drop out moving the #46 into the top 5. On the restart the #3 that was running in 3rd would begin to smoke. It started out fairly light but would begin to get worse. The 8m would look low on the #3 but couldn't make the pass and #46 would take a chance and run in the smoke trying to make the pass on the high side. The smoke would continue to get worse as at one point the #8m would disappear from Davids view and in turn 2 the cars would make slight contact. With one lap togo David was still fighting the 8m and the smoke. Then going into turn 3 the #31 would get into the back corner of the #46 sending him sideways. David would fight the whole way down the frontstraight to keep the car from spinning out at he just kept pushing on David's rear corner. David would manage to get the checker flag and finish in 5th. Overall a pretty rough night for the festiva as most of body work we did over the winter was damaged. Hopefully next week will go a little better.
Videos from the races are up in the videos section and on youtube. They include spectator and incar view of heat and feature.
