First race of the 2008 season
Sunday was our first race of the year in the MNSCS race series. It was also my first race on my new Optimus Ti Vassago. It rained all day the day before the race and they almost called it off. I'm glad they didn't because I've had good luck in the the mud with my single speed. At the start of the race it was only 40 degrees and very windy, so waiting for the gun to go off was pretty cold. 67 people lined up for the start of our race, we went off in in four waves at two minute intervals. Zach went off one wave ahead of me, he got the hole shot and was first to the first corner. Two minutes later, my wave started and I also got the hole shot and was first around the corner and never looked back. I had a close finish but never got passed. I didn't know how well I did until they posted the results and I took 1st place overall. Zach also had a very good race and finished third overall and first in his age group!
