PASS Race 1 at White Mtn. Halted by Rain
With the #54 back on the track for the first
time in 2004, Johnny and Bobby spent the White Mountain practice sessions working hard to
tune the chassis for some speed. Steadily they gained ground and were rewarded with a 7th
place run in time trials, posting a 12.272.
The Dash Redraw moved the 54 up to the 5th spot. Gaining two places in the dash put Johnny
into 3rd for the feature behind pole sitter Sam Sessions and Cassius Clark. At the green the 54 settled into 4th and survived the scramble
when a lapped car got caught in the middle of the groove by the entire pack.
As the rain began, Johnny was about the only one trying to run high. A couple of slips on
the wetter high line, dropped the 54 back to 10th as the red came out.
The remainder of the D-J Equipment 150 will now be run at 1:30 on Saturday, May 8th.
