Klutch Kickers at Midpond with Ken Martin on 4th of July weekend was awesome!
A special thanks to Ken Martin for all he does for the drift community (really all racing)! That guy is my hero! He is living my dream life with a racetrack in his backyard! Excavators and dump trucks expanding the track - I mean life is good!
The weekend did not come without challenges.
Derek Carter (crew- Jon Fender, Jake Hutchins, Jeannie Metcalf Fender) hit the track hard for the Friday practice. The hand brake broke so it was a late night Friday night repairing the car. Back in business Saturday morning and the car started cutting out. 2 Crank sensors later that was fixed and then something started tapping in the valve train finally shut us down for the weekend. We did not want to call it but we didn't want to kill the motor.
Overall great show with a lot of great drivers. On the way home started feeling a head cold coming on and had to deal with 2 flat tires on the camper. It is ok though, we are all home safe and we wont let that get us down or discourage us from trying again. I have a lot of photos to download and edit so be on the lookout!!
God is good and we are thankful for good times and meeting more great people along the way!
Yall did not come here to here me talk.... Here are some photos!
