This set him up to start outside the second row in the 1st heat race. Jon lead the majority of the race then misjudged a lap car which...more

Well thankfully the news is good as it can be after looking more into what happened Sunday at BRRP during the feature when chain came off we noticed water coming from the engine block area.

Thankfully we had saved the one from the old motor and bolted it on, filled it back up with fluids and the 100...more
