ALL ABOUT THE SET-UP

Dietz and Company latest TRACK SIDE report is in. It was back to a regular good old Saturday night at Trail-way Speedway. Tim lined up in the 6th position in Heat Race #2 and drove 8 hard laps to a 2nd place finish. That was good enough to bypass the B-Main and move directly into the the Main Event. Dietz lined up in the 7th position in the A-main and faded back due to the wrong set-up. The #9 Hyper was a far back as 12th, but managed to fight his way back to a 9th place finish.

After the race Tim smiled and said..."My son helped out with the set-up, and we were just way off tonight. He's still learning. We are going to run some tests this week to see what the problem is, but I'm sure we'll get it figured out. Either way, we can't complain with a top-10 finish. We'll take it and get ready for next weekend.

Come out this Saturday the 19th of July and support the #9 LRP Team at Trail-way Speedway. Gates open at 4:30 PM and Racing starts at 6:30 PM. See you at the track.

2008 SPEEDWEEK COMPLETE

The highly anticipated 2008 PA 600 Speedweek was here and now is gone. Tim and company went on the road to see what they could do in 7 races in 8 long days. In the end, the entire team was tired but had an almost perfect week. Tim was one race away from making all A-mains, which is very hard to do. As a matter of fact, only one other person did it out of 162 drivers. Race #1 at Trail-way Speedway Tim raced his way into the A-main and finished 11th. Race #2 at Lincoln Speedway, he took 12th. Race #3 at Path Valley Speedway Dietz crossed 16th. Race #4 at Greenwood Valley Action Track he finished a strong 9th. Race #5 at Susquehanna Speedway 13th. Race #6 at Linda's Speedway was won by the Rain. Race #7 which was the Super 600 Showdown at Lanco Speedway would be the hardest challenge of the week for the #9 team. With passing points as the qualifying system, Tim ran a Heat Race, a qualifier race, and then found himself in the C-main. After winning the C-main, he moved onto the B-main where he needed to finish 9th or better. After starting in the rear for 25 laps, he landed in the 13th spot which was a few spots short of the qualifying positions. It was a sad end to a long week, but a 7th place finish in points showed that the team was very consistent and ran hard with all of the 600 cc Super Stars from around the globe.

Back to the real world we head this weekend. Come out this Saturday the 12th of July and support the #9 LRP Team at Trail-way Speedway. Gates open at 4:30 PM and Racing starts at 6:30 PM. See you at the track.
