Dale Hunter Racing

It just came across my mind that I never followed up on how the John Watson Racing team did last weekend running with Great Lakes Traditional Sprints !!

Friday May 12th - I-96 Speedway

Friday I attended my first race at I96 Speedway. I qualified towards the rear of the field however that was expected being my first time there and and my 5th ever race.

I started 6th in the heat and finished 7th.

I started 11th in the feature ( 16 cars ) and was running somewhere around the top 10 , I was learning a lot running up on the little bit of a “ cushion “ ( pictured below ) that was there and had a great battle between Mike Galajda , my dad , and myself! Unfortunately with 11 laps to go I had a valve seat let go which got sucked into the motor. We put a blanket over the car and performed final rights on the motor the next day lol

Definitely not how I wanted to start my season after the night was going so well! As of right now we know the motor is hurt pretty bad and I will be out of the 26 car for a few races until we repair the damage. Thats racing!

My dad wont be able to make the race on June 10th at Southern Ontario Motor Speedway with the Ontario Traditional Sprints INC. So I will be in the 13 car that night!
