I posted last month that my 9 yrar old Grandson Logan got his Jr. Dragster license,
making him the fourth Generation of Irving Family Racing.
Despite his inexperience we entered the Div. 7 Jr. Dragster Division Finals.
We wanted to get him some seat time for next year. we did not expect to win any rounds.
The best talented and experienced young racers from tracks all over the Western states
were at that race = As far as the eye could see. Most of them with cars way newer and at least
several time the price of his elderly starter car. His was one of the very slowest at the entire track
and we do not know much about Jr. dragster racing = Not our wheelhouse.
Well........Logan won the race today and came home with his first Wally! Many if not most people
race their entire careers and never succeed in winning one. He dodged at least 3 racers with .01
or better light by pushing them out on the finish. In the final, Logan ran an 11.482 on a 11.48 to push
his talented and experienced opponent to breakout.
He has a giant Mopar on the back of his Fire Jacket.
He is a kid that loves Mopars BUT never liked to go fast - period.
After his first pass in his car, he came out with a Grin as big as the Western Skies!
I am very Blessed to have been able to see him race.
God is Good........................Always!
Praise to his Holy Name.
Pictures coming.
