Clueless and Peter J.

I'm sure I'm not the only one eager to hear all the details from BlackHawk Farms this past weekend. Clueless and Peter J. how'd it go?

Hi Martin,

Sorry for taking so long to respond.

Team Clueless had a great qualifying session. Rick Bartuska, Reed's dad, was on the pole - 6 tenths of a second faster than the entire field and the only driver in the 1:19's. I was at the other end of the grid in 20th, though I was happy with my effort. I qualified at 1:23.49, my first time ever running a lap in the 1:23's.

Things went array for Rick at the start of the race. He was late in arriving to the grid and as a result had to start the race at the back of the field. He drove a heck of a race and ended up 4th or 5th at the end.

I finished where I started, but again was very pleased with my progress. I got up to speed very quickly in the race - running a low 1:24 on my second flying lap. My best race lap was a 1:22.96, my first time ever in the 1:22's. I'm hoping to run even better this coming weekend.
