New car
New track
New crew
We got the first race of 2020 in the books on July 4th. Ironically this was our 43rd different track and Petty at that, quite a coincidence.
We had trouble all day with radios and that hurt us terribly, but all in all it was a good test for me in the car and for my crew in the pits. I must say they did a fantastic job and they are sure keen to work and help on the car, just like my crew in Ontario.
We had issues with the car, I think mostly learning how to drive the track. I was up and down concentrating on the car and knowing it, as well as a track I had never raced before.
We didn’t finish due to an electrical issue with the cooling fan, and had to leave the track with overheating. I think we finished 14th of 18 cars but not really sure yet.
The full story will be on Diary of a Season 2020 tomorrow, I have a bunch of good pictures like this one from my good friend Ernest Pothier who took pictures of my cars in Ontario before he moved here. Overall Petty was a good shake down.
