Friday night racing at Warehouse 3

Friday, February 3rd, 2012

Got in another Friday night of great racing at Warehouse 3 in Phoenix. This was round 3 of the Friday night point series, and the crowd was awesome , in fact it was a record night for the amount of racers that showed up.  My friends Dean and Dragi from Wolfpak Racing made the trip up to Phoenix to join in the racing fun, you can follow them on their blog at http://www.wolfpakracing.com/. I had just finished my new TLR 22 buggy on that Wednesday, and was itching to get it on the track for some racing.

All setup in the pits, and ready to race.
This Friday night I decided not to run my truck, and concentrate on just racing my new buggy.  I had entered into the 2WD 13.5 Buggy class, both Dean and Dragi had also entered into this class.

For my first time out racing my buggy I feel I did pretty good, and I am looking forward to next Friday and Saturday, as it will be a busy weekend of racing.  Friday night point series racing at Warehouse 3, and then on Saturday the final round of the KBRL series.  I plan on racing both the truck and the buggy both days.

Below is some pictures I took when I was finishing my buggy off Wednesday night.

Working on the finishing touches.
