4/7/07 -PRA Big Car Series, South Georgia Motorsports
Park, Georgia: PRA Debut: After testing at Shenandoah Speedway on
April 6 - we drove through the night to South Georgia Motorsports
Park. Ryan experienced a severe driveline vibration in practice so the team decided to start scratch in the feature and try and diagnose the problem. Missing qualifying forced Ryan to start 16th. We never did find the problem, but it seemed to have fixed itself for the first 100 laps. The final 50 laps the vibration returned, so Ryan held on to an 8th place finish! Ryan and the team
are excited about the next event at O'Reilly Raceway Park on May 16th.
Thank you to those that contributed to our team because without
you - this wouldn't have been possible!
