Brainerd International Raceway



Tuesday was a full day, we did the Donnybrook Road Course first which is 3.1 miles long and 10 turns and includes the longest front straight and the fastest turn one in road racing.  In the afternoon we then ran the Competition Road Course which includes much of the big course without the front straight, but also the infield road course which totals 13 turns and 2.5 miles. After that we two drag events. The drags started with a pure Elapsed Time run on the front straight which is also an NHRA Drag Strip.  When the ET runs were finished we the went into a Bracket Drags event.  I did relatively good on all the events but only lasted two rounds in the Bracket Drags.  A Good scoring day.  The other thin that made the day a long one was the transit to Hasting Nebraska which was 556 miles and we didn't get in till after 2 am.


One other nice thing at Branierd was that my brother Mike and wife Patty came up from Minneapolis to visit and watch me compete.
